We all know Cinder offers the awesome ability to create storage volumes, attach them to instances, and use them anyway you wish. The truth is, not all workloads are created equal! With Cinder QOS, OpenStack Administrators can now offer their users Cinder volumes in a variety of performance flavors! In this hands-on lab, participants will… Continue reading OpenStack Cinder QOS: A Hands-On Workshop

OpenStack: Metadata tagging in Cinder
Nova looks at and uses image metadata on bootable volumes (managed by Glance) for scheduling as well as for passing along to the individual compute drivers. Cinder volumes have different types of metadata (properties) like user and image metadata for example. In this session, we will see how metadata tagging in Cinder will provide a… Continue reading OpenStack: Metadata tagging in Cinder
Addressing storage management challenges using open source SDS controller
Cost pressures, explosive data growth and cloud workloads are driving the need for fundamental shift in how storage resources are being managed in the private cloud. In this session we present open Software Defined Storage (SDS) controller framework augmenting the OpenStack storage services (i.e., Cinder, Manila, Swift) to address storage management challenges and demonstrate an… Continue reading Addressing storage management challenges using open source SDS controller
