In our case we are using OpenContrail instead of the default OVS plugin in Neutron. It has a feature call VDNS which could resolve names inside your cloud and for external FQDN resolution, it can be pointed as a delegated DNS in your primary one. BTW. I only recommend solutions that are OpenSource

2015-02-20 Thread Mike Dorman
I can report that we do use this option (‘global' setting.) We have to enforce name uniqueness for instances’ integration with some external systems (namely AD and Spacewalk) which require unique naming. However, we also do some external name validation which I think effectively enforces uniqu

We have memcache enabled on the metadata servers. Part of our load is because we have a cron job that pulls the metadata and does some stuff on the server every ~10 minutes. We staggered the start times so that the requests are spread out over a period of time and in general concurrent requests a
