Benchmarking Performance of OpenStack Swift Configurations http://www.mirantis.com/blog/openstack-swift-configurations-performance-benchmarking/
The latest OpenStack Object Storage Swift release 1.9.0 features full global clusters support https://github.com/openstack/swift/blob/master/CHANGELOG, which allows to /distribute one cluster over multiple, geographically dispersed sites, connected through a high-latency network/. Mirantis published a brief introduction to how to use benchmarks to take full advantage of the new features.
Hardware Extension for Ceilometer http://www.cloudcomp.ch/2013/07/hardware-extension-for-ceilometer/
Ceilometer https://launchpad.net/ceilometer is a monitoring tool for OpenStack http://www.openstack.org/ cloud environments. In the next OpenStack http://www.openstack.org/ release called Havana it will take part as a core component. However, Ceilometer https://launchpad.net/ceilometer is also available for the OpenStack http://www.openstack.org/ releases Folsom and Grizzly. Currently Ceilometer https://launchpad.net/ceilometer offers only data of the OpenStack http://www.openstack.org/ core components and the virtual machines of the cloud. For this reason the ICCLab http://www.cloudcomp.ch/ decided to extend Ceilometer https://launchpad.net/ceilometer in a way that it is possible to collect data from hardware devices as well.
An Introduction to OpenStack Orchestration http://www.zerobanana.com/archive/2013/07/30#openstack-orchestration-introduction
The forthcoming Havana (2013.2) release of OpenStack http://www.openstack.org/ will mark the debut of orchestration as part of the official release. It arrives in the form of the Heat https://wiki.openstack.org/Heat project, which kicked off in early 2012 and graduated from incubation into OpenStack-proper after the Havana Summit in March this year.
