Open Stack

Hi Sylvain,

thanks for your answer.
Actually we haven't yet developed that because we'd like to be sure that 
our proposal is fine with BLAZAR.
We already implemented a pluggable advanced scheduler for Nova which 
addresses the issues we are experiencing with OpenStack in the Italian 
National Institute for Nuclear Physics. This scheduler named 
FairShareScheduler is able to make OpenStack more efficient and flexible 
in terms of resource usage. Of course we wish to integrate our work in 
OpenStack and so we tried several times to start a discussion and a 
possible interaction with the OpenStack developers, but it seems to be 
so difficult to do it.
The GANTT people suggested us to refer to BLAZAR because it may have 
more affinity with our scope. Is it so? Therefore, I would appreciate to 
know if you may be interested in our proposal.

Thanks for your attention.
Cheers,
Lisa


   Such component's name is FairShareScheduler and
