Hi, Jay,

>From exactly definition, it's not full "independent" concept.

The KeyStone services will be distributed into each data center, so if one data center failed, the identity management especially token validation can work still in other data centers. That's one case studied in OPNFV multisite project.

There is difference between " An end user is able to import image from another Glance in another OpenStack cloud while sharing same identity management( KeyStone )" and other use cases. The difference is the image import need to reuse the token in the source Glance, other ones don't need this.

Best Regards
Chaoyi Huang ( Joe Huang )

That's not independent OpenStack instances.

If the identity management is shared, it's not standalone.

Best,
