From the options offered by Tomaz:
1. Keep the existing API which is coupled to the compute API, iterate
on it
/ improve it if necessary
2. Add a new, top-level Block Storage API, remove existing block
storage
related methods from the compute API
3. Add a new, top-level Block Storage API and
So the biggest missing piece from the existing block-storage APIs that I
see is snapshotting (Creation from a volume, creating a new volume from a
snapshot, listing, and deletion). I don't have a good sense of whether they
make the compute driver "too big" or whether it's fine to just add them.
Wha
Yeah.
I also think there is some merit in having Block Storage as an additional,
separate top level API. It's been a while since I've last researched all
the existing block storage APIs so I would need to research it again to
refresh my memory, but I would also be interested in hearing other peopl
That looks fine to me (I see only a few drivers implement it). I guess this
means we'd move all the methods from a new set of drivers onto compute?
