Hi Team,

I would like to request FFE for "Using centralized database for cache operations" feature.

Patches: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22centralized-cache-db%22
Status: Base functionality is merged

Pending:
- Devstack patch for defaulting cache_driver to centralized_db - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/907110

- Tempest tests for caching images on remote node - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/901525

- Grenade patch to change cache-driver to centralized_db on upgrade - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/grenade/+/901678

- New tempest job to test centralized db - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/glance/+/901429

- New Grenade job to test upgrade scenario - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/glance/+/901649

- Make centralized_db driver default in glance - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/glance/+/907111

Why miss the deadline: Some useful restructuring during milestone 3

This feature is useful as we just need a single database which reduces the need of maintaining sqlite3 database and also can enhance caching operations by introducing new APIs in future.

Kindly consider this feature for the current cycle and assist with reviews and suggestions.

Thank you,

Abhishek Kekane
