How is it implemented and where? On wiki I've found something about Atlas-LB. Is this project finished? Or still in progress? There is no roadmap for it so it's really hard to find out the progress. <br><br>I'm plannig to write master thesis about load balancing algorithms and i'd like to implement some of them inside OpenStack or as external driver (according to Atlas-LB presentation), but right now i don't know how to write one connected to Atlas-LB or even is Atlas-LB still active? Are there any load balancing algorithms insied OpenStack? Where can i start if i'd like to do research about load balancing and exact algorithms in OpenStack?<br clear=all><br>-- <br><i><span style='color:#333333'>Semy</span></i><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><hr size=1 width="100%" noshade style='color:#A0A0A0' align=center></div><p class=avgcert>No virus found in this message.<br>Checked by AVG - <a href="http://www.avg.com">www.avg.com</a><br>Version: 10.0.1416 / Virus Database: 2109/4860 - Release Date: 03/09/12<br>Internal Virus Database is out of date.<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
