Just want to let you know that QonoS is still being actively developed by our team at Rackspace. It's a service that is the basis for our proposed Nova Scheduled Images extension, which is nearing completion. Other than the code (https://github.com/rackspace-titan/qonos), here's some basic docs on QonoS: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Scheduled-images-service and the Nova extension that uses it: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Nova-scheduled-images-extension The main goal of Qonos is to act as a distributed and scalable Cron service that can provide basic job error recovery. We are definitely interested in how Qonos can play a role in other parts of OpenStack. It seems that the duties of Qonos and Convection only overlap in one area, job execution. atm Qonos has it's own way of executing a task but it seems like in the future it could make sense for Qonos to utilize a system like Convection to perform the work. Currently, Qonos performs this work ad hoc and we would like to move away from that model and a system like Convection makes a lot of sense there. As we near completion of the scheduled images blueprint, Qonos should fall further into the sight of the OpenStack community. -Alex -----Original Message----- From: "Endre Karlson" <endre.karlson at gmail.com> Sent: Friday, April 26, 2013 2:23am To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List" <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org> Subject: [openstack-dev] Qonos and Convection - merge projects? Hi, I saw that there is a new Task system proposed: [https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection Woud it be possible to have this effort joined with the Qonos project from the RAX Titan team?
