Dear All,<br>
<br>
As a follow-up to the Raksha<<a href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Raksha" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Raksha</a>> proposal, we checked in a ?prototype? code into github. Here are the links for the wiki and github source code?<br>

Finally, please also take a look at this short video that demonstrates the key features of Raksha. Raksha Demo<<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc8k_7BIaEc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc8k_7BIaEc</a>><br>
<br>
Please note that this is still work in progress that requires integration with neutron and vm metadata backup etc<br>
<br>
After the initial proposal of Raksha, there is an excellent dialog and feedback from the community?<br>
<br>
<br>
1. Better integration with Cinder backup APIs.<br>
<br>
2. Leverage TaskFlow<br>
<br>
3. Explore integration with Heat.<br>
<br>
To address the above and any additional improvements, we would like the community to participate and contribute. Also here is a proposal for the Icehouse Design Summit Topic ?<a href="http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/88" target="_blank">http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/88</a>? Looking forward to have a great dialog at the summit.<br>

Subject: [openstack-dev] Proposal for Raksha, a Data Protection As a Service project<br>
<br>
Hello Stackers,<br>
We would like to introduce a new project Raksha, a Data Protection As a Service (DPaaS) for OpenStack Cloud.<br>
Raksha?s primary goal is to provide a comprehensive Data Protection for OpenStack by leveraging Nova, Swift, Glance and Cinder. Raksha has following key features:<br>
<br>
1. Provide an enterprise grade data protection for OpenStack based clouds<br>
<br>
2. Tenant administered backups and restores<br>
<br>
3. Application consistent backups<br>
<br>
4. Point In Time(PiT) full and incremental backups and restores<br>
<br>
5. Dedupe at source for efficient backups<br>
<br>
6. A job scheduler for periodic backups<br>
<br>
7. Noninvasive backup solution that does not require service interruption during backup window<br>
<br>
You will find the rationale behind the need for Raksha in OpenStack in its Wiki. The wiki also has the preliminary design and the API description. Some of the Raksha functionality may overlap with Nova and Cinder projects and as a community lets work together to coordinate the features among these projects. We would like to seek out early feedback so we can address as many issues as we can in the first code drop. We are hoping to enlist the OpenStack community help in making Raksha a part of OpenStack.<br>
