I believe keystone already supports hierarchical projects....

Kris, I think the proposal of hierarchical projects is out of the scope of magnum, and you might need to bring it up at keystone or cross-project meeting. I am going to propose a walk-around that might work for you at existing tenancy model. Suppose there is a department (department A) with two subteams (team 1 and team 2). You can create three projects: · Project A · Project A-1 · Project A-2 Then you can assign users to projects in the following ways: · Assign team 1 members to both Project A and Project A-1 · Assign team 2 members to both Project A and Project A-2 Then you can create a bay at project A, which is shared by the whole department. In addition, each subteam can create their own bays at project A-X if they want. Does it address your use cases? Best regards, Hongbin From: Kris G.

We are looking at deploying magnum as an answer for how do we do containers company wide at Godaddy. I am going to agree with both you and josh. I agree that managing one large system is going to be a pain and pas experience tells me this wont be practical/scale, however from experience I also know exactly the pain Josh is talking about. We currently have ~4k projects in our internal openstack cloud, about 1/4 of the projects are currently doing some form of containers on their own, with more joining every day. If all of these projects were to convert of to the current magnum configuration we would suddenly be attempting to support/configure ~1k magnum clusters. Considering that everyone will want it HA, we are looking at a minimum of 2 kube nodes per cluster + lbaas vips + floating ips. From a capacity standpoint this is an excessive amount of duplicated infrastructure to spinup in projects where people maybe running 10–20 containers per project. From an operator support perspective this is a special level of hell that I do not want to get into. Even if I am off by 75%, 250 still sucks. >From my point of view an ideal use case for companies like ours >(yahoo/godaddy) would be able to support hierarchical projects in magnum. >That way we could create a project for each department, and then the subteams >of those departments can have their own projects.

The above would make it so where we support a minimal, yet imho reasonable, number of kube clusters, give people who can't/don’t want to fall inline with the provided resource a way to make their own and still offer a "good enough for a single company" level of multi-tenancy. >Joshua, > >If you share resources, you give up multi-tenancy.

I personally don’t feel that pain is worth the gain. ___________________________________________________________________ Kris Lindgren Senior Linux Systems Engineer GoDaddy
