image cache of Nova is enough.<br>
<span style="color:red">[Greg] We enabled image caching in the Glance API.<br>
I believe that Nova Image Caching caches at the compute node ... this would work ok for all-in-one edge clouds or small edge clouds.<br>
But glance-api caching caches at the edge cloud level, so works better for large edge clouds with lots of compute nodes.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
