Hi Jay,
I'd like to better understand why your definition of rolling upgrades excludes 
Glance and Keystone? Granted they don't run multiple disparate components over 
distributed systems, however, they can still run the same service on multiple 
distributed nodes. So a rolling upgrade can still be applied on a large cloud 
that has, for instance 50 Glance nodes.  In this case different versions of the 
same service will run on different nodes simultaneously.
Regards,
Alex
