Hello all,<br class="">
<br class="">
Going over today's presentation
<meta charset="utf-8" class="">
"Load Balancing as a Service, Kilo and Beyond"[1] (great
presentation!!) - there are a few questions I have regarding the
future release:<br class="">
<br class="">
For Octavia 1.0:<br class="">
<br class="">
1. Can someone explain to me how the flow would work for spinning up
a a new Amphora with regards to interaction between Neutron, LBaaS
and Barbican?<br class="">
Same question as well regarding how the standby is created and its
relationship with Barbican.<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div><div>The lbaas API runs inside neutron-server. The general flow is:</div><div><br class=""></div><div>- User interacts with neutron CLI/API or horizon (in liberty), and creates an LB.</div><div>- Lbaas plugin in neutron creates logical models, fetches cert data from barbican, and calls the backend lbaas driver.</div><div>- The backend driver does what it needs to to instantiate the LB. Today this is a synchronous call that waits for the nova boot, but by Liberty, it will likely be an async call to the octavia controller to finish the job.</div><div><br class=""></div><div>Once Octavia has control, it is doing:</div><div><br class=""></div><div>- Get REST calls for objects,</div><div>- Talk to nova, spin up an amphora image,</div><div>- Talk to neutron, plumb in the networks,</div><div>- Send the amphora its config.</div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="">
<br class="">
2. Will the orchestration (Heat) also be implemented when Octavia
1.0 is released or only further down the line?<br class="">
If not what would you suggest be the way to orchestrate LBaaS until
this is ready?<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div><div>We need to talk to the Heat folks and coordinate this, which we are planning to do soon.</div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="">
<br class="">
3. Is there some kind of hook into Security groups also planned for
the Amphora to also protect the Load Balancer?<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><div><br class=""></div><div>Not at present, but I recorded this in the feature list on the etherpad above.</div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" class="">
<br class="">
I think that based on the answers to these questions above -
additional questions will follow.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks<br class="">
