Re: [openstack-dev] Vancouver Design Summit format changes

2015-01-09 Thread Michael Dorman
(X-posted to -operators.)

Any thoughts on how the ops track spaces would be requested, since there 
is not a real ‘operators project’, PTL, etc.?

I assume this would come from the operators group as a whole, so probably 
something we should put on the agenda at the ops meet up in March.  (I’ve 
added it to the etherpad.)

Hi everyone,

The OpenStack Foundation staff is considering a number of changes to the
Design Summit format for Vancouver, changes on which we'd very much like
to hear your feedback.

The problems we are trying to solve are the following:
- Accommodate the needs of more OpenStack projects
- Reduce separation and perceived differences between the Ops Summit and
the Design/Dev Summit
- Create calm and less-crowded spaces for teams to gather and get more
work done

While some sessions benefit from large exposure, loads of feedback and
large rooms, some others are just workgroup-oriented work sessions that
benefit from smaller rooms, less exposure and more whiteboards. Smaller
rooms are also cheaper space-wise, so they allow us to scale more easily
to a higher number of OpenStack projects.

My proposal is the following. Each project team would have a track at
the Design Summit. Ops feedback is in my opinion part of the design of
OpenStack, so the Ops Summit would become a track within the
forward-looking Design Summit. Tracks may use two separate types of
sessions:

* Fishbowl sessions
Those sessions are for open discussions where a lot of participation and
feedback is desirable. Those would happen in large rooms (100 to 300
people, organized in fishbowl style with a projector). Those would have
catchy titles and appear on the general Design Summit schedule. We would
have space for 6 or 7 of those in parallel during the first 3 days of
the Design Summit (we would not run them on Friday, to reproduce the
successful Friday format we had in Paris).

* Working sessions
Those sessions are for a smaller group of contributors to get specific
work done or prioritized. Those would happen in smaller rooms (20 to 40
people, organized in boardroom style with loads of whiteboards). Those
would have a blanket title (like infra team working session) and
redirect to an etherpad for more precise and current content, which
should limit out-of-team participation. Those would replace project
pods. We would have space for 10 to 12 of those in parallel for the
first 3 days, and 18 to 20 of those in parallel on the Friday (by
reusing fishbowl rooms).

Each project track would request some mix of sessions (We'd like 4
fishbowl sessions, 8 working sessions on Tue-Thu + half a day on
Friday) and the TC would arbitrate how to allocate the limited
resources. Agenda for the fishbowl sessions would need to be published
in advance, but agenda for the working sessions could be decided
dynamically from an etherpad agenda.

By making larger use of smaller spaces, we expect that setup to let us
accommodate the needs of more projects. By merging the two separate Ops
Summit and Design Summit events, it should make the Ops feedback an
integral part of the Design process rather than a second-class citizen.
By creating separate working session rooms, we hope to evolve the pod
concept into something where it's easier for teams to get work done
(less noise, more whiteboards, clearer agenda).

What do you think ? Could that work ? If not, do you have alternate
suggestions ?

Re: [openstack-dev] Hierarchical Multitenancy

2014-12-23 Thread Michael Dorman
+1 to Nova support for this getting in to Kilo.

We have a similar use case.  I’d really like to doll out quota on a department 
level, and let individual departments manage sub projects and quotas on their 
own.  I agree that HMT has limited value without Nova support.

Thanks!
Mike

Joe,

Thanks… there seems to be good agreement on the spec and the matching 
implementation is well advanced with BARC so the risk is not too high.

Launching HMT with quota in Nova in the same release cycle would also provide a 
more complete end user experience.

For CERN, this functionality is very interesting as it allows the central cloud 
providers to delegate the allocation of quotas to the LHC experiments. Thus, 
from a central perspective, we are able to allocate N thousand cores to an 
experiment and delegate their resource co-ordinator to prioritise the work 
within the experiment. Currently, we have many manual helpdesk tickets with 
significant latency to adjust the quotas.

 It would be great if we can get approval for the Hierachical Quota handling 
 in Nova too (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/129420/).

Nova's spec deadline has passed, but I think this is a good candidate for an 
exception.  We will announce the process for asking for a formal spec exception 
shortly after new years.

 Hi Raildo,



 Thanks for putting this post together. I really appreciate all the work you 
 guys have done (and continue to do) to get the Hierarchical Mulittenancy code 
 into Keystone. It’s great to have the base implementation merged into 
 Keystone for the K1 milestone. I look forward to seeing the rest of the 
 development land during the rest of this cycle and what the other OpenStack 
 projects build around the HMT functionality.



 Cheers,

 Morgan

 To answers these questions, I created a blog post

We have some folks interested in this, but want to see the Rackspace Neutron

Hey folks,

I have met several folks at the summit who have come up with their own 
solutions for large clouds to allow network scaling.  Several of the solutions 
seem to be based on network selection given certain constraints.  I would like 
to discuss some use-cases and some solutions.  We could meet at 3:30/Thu 
(today) in the pod area, if interested.

Thanks,

[openstack-dev] [barbican] any barbican devs at summit?

2014-05-14 Thread Michael Dorman
Would be interested in syncing up to hear about your experiences with this.  
Anybody at the summit this week that'd be willing to chat for a few minutes?

Email works to reach out to me, or I'm on IRC (mdorman) sporadically this week.

Thanks,
Mike
