[Openstack-operators] Other options than MySQL

I think Savanna is more of a user facing database-as-a-service rather than Hadoop as a replacement for MySQL backing OpenStack
components.

 

I think SQLAlchemy is used for DB access mostly but MySQL and Postgres are the only ones I've heard of being used.

Hi, 

 

Thanks for sharing Savanna link. I will look at it.  

 

With no SQL, I was expecting more towards MongoDB, Cassandra or HBase type of solutions.  

 

I was thinking sooner or later with the new requirement there will be the need of new fields and after that change in schema.
perhaps a key-value based solution is better. This approach will be good for both metadata and general purpose flexible databases. 

 

Regards..

Salman.

Mirantis has a project aims to meet Hadoop requirements in Openstack. Its codename is 'Savanna'. You can find information in

Is that what you are meaning with 'NoSQL'?

Hi, 

 

Thanks JuanFra! 

 

Any other possibility? Both in SQL and NoSQL type of solutions? Or if there is any project running on in similar directions. 

 

/Salman.

Sure, i.e. PostgreSQL

Hi, 

 

Wondering have somebody tried anything else then MySQL with Openstack? Or is it possible to use other DBs? if yes, will be happy to
get some links.
