[Openstack] HP Cloud Service Performance Test

Hi all, Recently I did some performance testings on HP Cloud Service. I would like to share the test results with the OpenStack community. The test report includes a lot of figures and it is not good to spam your mailbox. If you are interested you can access the report from my blog at the followin

First, thanks to Andrew for starting this thread. I think it's an important discussion. Second, the problem with the analogies made so far is, IMHO, at the API level and what it does to the ecosystem. Let's take, for example, Apache HTTP Client stuff. 3.1 and 4.x are wildly different object mo

I personally equate OpenStack to the Linux Kernel. It's the foundation and core components that, in OpenStack's case, make up an Infrastructure as as Service (IaaS) system, a "cloud" kernel. We should expect the core components and APIs to be stable with sane deprecation policies, but OpenStack sh

This doesn't fit into the "things that make me grumpy" bucket, but instead an opinion on how APIs should be done… I personally believe (and this is described in great detail in my API book) that you never, ever auto-generate JSON and XML from model objects for your REST APIs. You need your mode

Hi, So, if I paraphrase correctly what is meant out of the stacker jargon. min_count and max_count doc will go in the API doc as an extension item once the DisableServerExtension cleanup is done. Right? However, the original question was about the *num_instances* property of the RPC request spec.
