OpenStack is a cloud operating system that controls large pools + of compute, storage, and networking resources in a data center. + OpenContrail is a network virtualization (SDN) solution + comprising network controller, virtual router and analytics + engine, which can be integrated with cloud orchestration systems + like OpenStack or CloudStack.

+ +

The goal of this work is to enable &os; as a fully supported + compute host for OpenStack, using OpenContrail virtualized + networking. The main areas of development are the + following:

+ +
    +
  • OpenStack compute driver (nova-compute) for the + &os; bhyve(4) hypervisor.
  • + +
  • OpenContrail vRouter (forwarding-plane kernel module) port + to &os;.
  • + +
  • Integration, performance optimizations.
  • +
+ +

The current state of development features a working demo of + OpenStack with compute node components running on a &os; host:

+ +
    +
  • The native bhyve(4) hypervisor is driven by a + nova-compute component for spawning guest instances + and a nova-network component for providing simple + networking between those guests.
  • + +
  • The nova-network approach (based on local host + bridging) is becoming an obsolete technology in OpenStack and + was used here only for a demonstration and proof-of-concept + purposes, without exploring all the possible features.
  • + +
  • The main objective is to move to OpenContrail-based + networking, therefore become compliant with the modern OpenStack + networking API ("neutron").
  • +
+ +

This project is sponsored by Juniper Networks, Inc.
