<div>The VM-placement engine does 2 things: (I) translates Datalog to LP and (ii) generates additional LP constraints. (Both work items could leverage any constraints that are builtin to a specific solver, e.g. the solver-scheduler. The point is that there
are 2 distinct, conceptual origins of the LP constraints: those that represent the Datalog and those that codify the domain.</div>

<div>Each domain-specific solver can do whatever it wants, so it’s not clear to me what the value of choosing a modeling language actually is—unless we want to build a library of common functionality that makes the construction of domain-specific engine (wrappers)
easier. I’d prefer to spend our energy understanding whether the proposed workflow/interface works for a couple of different domain-specific policy engines OR to flush this one out and build it.</div>

<div>So you’re saying we won’t have fresh enough data to make policy decisions? If the data changes so frequently that we can’t get an accurate view, then I’m guessing we shouldn’t be migrating based on that data anyway.</div>

<div>Could you point me to some of these discussions?</div>

<div>Sure. The only reason I chose this policy was because it doesn’t have aggregation. I’m guessing we’ll want to avoid aggregation for the POC because we don’t yet have it in Congress, and it complicates the problem of translating Datalog to LP substantially.

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">Thanks for your updated doc on Delegation from Congress to a domain-specific policy engine, in this case, you are planning to build a LP-based VM-Placement
engine to be the domain specific policy engine. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I agree your main goal is to first get the delegation interface sorted out. It will be good so that external services (like Solver-Scheduler) can also easily
integrate to the delegation model. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">From the Solver-Scheduler point of view, we would actually want to start working on a PoC effort to start integrating Congress and the Solver-Scheduler. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">We believe rather than pushing this effort to a long-term, it would add value to both the Solver Scheduler effort, as well as the Congress effort to try some
early integration now, as most of the LP solver work for VM placements is ready available now in Solver scheduler, and we need to spend some time thinking about translating your domain-agnostic policy to constraints that the Solver scheduler can use. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I would definitely need your help from the Congress interfaces and I hope you will share your early interfaces for the delegation, so I can start the effort
from the Solver scheduler side for integration. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I will reach out to you to get some initial help for integration w.r.t. Congress, and also keep you posted about the progress from our side. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I made a heavy editing pass of the Delegation google doc, incorporating many of your comments and my latest investigations into VM-placement. I left the old stuff in

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">My goal was to propose an end-to-end workflow for a PoC that we could put together quickly to help us explore the delegation interface. We should iterate on this design
until we have something that we think is workable. And by all means pipe up if you think we need a totally different starting point to begin the iteration. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
