OpenStack Icehouse ReleaseOpen Marketing MeetingApril 9, 2014
“Software is eating the world” - The Enterprise Shift • Software is now strategic to all companies. Successful enterprises must become tech companies regardless of industry type, or they’ll go the way of the dinosaur. • This changes everything. How software is produced & consumed, as well as the talent war, because you can’t buy strategy in a box. • Moving at the speed of cloud means minutes instead of months to provision app resources. • OpenStack is an enabling technology for the shift, but also is a diverse community with an open design process which welcomes users to set the roadmap. • The Icehouse release reflects this trend.
OpenStack Innovation Model Greater OpenStack Ecosystem Incubated Projects Integrated Release Works with projects in greater Ecosystem Applied & Accepted by TC • On the road to the integrated release • Typically takes 18-24 months before being approved for graduation • Approved for Incubation by the Technical Committee • More stringent requirements for incubation approved by TC Graduation • The software released every 6 months • Technical Committee managed + Release Manager & PTLs • Wide range of related open source projects • Some may apply for incubation • Many will never apply. Supporting Programs Shared infrastructure and resources for OpenStack projects 4

OpenStack Icehouses Technology Themes • Testing for drivers and upgrades • Rolling upgrades • Ops-driven features continue to make it easier to manage and scale • Incubation continues to drive innovation • Integrated • Release • Matures • Object Storage replication options (s-sync) • Block Storage horizontal scalability • Data layer performance improvements for large deployments Efficiency at Scale • Boot process reliability across platform services • Consistency across services Tighter Platform Integration
Key Themes Across the Community • More users/operators continue to shape software • Users contribute code for real world use cases to solve issues they see day to day • New opportunities for users to influence roadmap • Many users finding the right path to adoption for their business • One size does not fit all: that’s why OpenStack is the right choice for so many • Testing/Reliability requirements continue to rise • Rigorous testing now a requirementacross projects • Strict criteria to be part of the integrated release, need test coverage and CI
Compute • Improved upgrade support • Rolling upgrades • No impact to user workloads • Testing requirements enhanced • All included third-party drivers fully tested • Upgrade testing for all contributions • Other updates • Improved scheduler performance • Boot process reliability across platform services • More features exposed to end users via API updates, such as ability to target machines by affinity • More efficient access to data layer; improves performance, especially at scale
Storage • Object Storage • Discoverability: major update, ability to ask any Object Storage cloud what capabilities are available • New replication process significantly improves performance; data is more efficiently transported through new s-sync (instead of r-sync) • Major storage policies feature in progress and coming in Juno • Block Storage • Backend migration with tiered storage environments, allowing for performance management in heterogeneous environments • Testing for external drivers to ensure API consistency across storage platforms • Scalability improvements with fully distributed services
Networking • Tighter integration with Compute • State managed across Compute and Networking provisioning actions • Improved consistency with instance creation • Driver testing and cross-service testing • Better functional testing for actions that require coordination between multiple services • Third-party driver testing ensures consistency and reliability across network implementations • Focus on scale and feature parity with nova-network • Both networking options still available
Shared Services • Identity service: Federated authentication with Shibboleth • Orchestration: Additional native autoscaling resources available, Configuration API for managing applications, reduced dependence on administrative API • Telemetry:Rest API to access stored events implemented • Dashboard: Design updated and user experience improvements (e.g. in-line editing), three new languages added • Database Service: New capability included in the integrated release, allows management of relational database services in an OpenStack environment
Looking forward to the next release: Juno • The OpenStack model encourages innovation around a stable integrated release. Looking forward to Juno, coming in October 2014: • Incubated projects • Bare metal (Ironic) • Hadoop (Sahara) • Messaging (Marconi)
Key Dates & Next Steps • Icehouse Release, April 17th • Press release • Latest release page at OpenStack.org updated • Screenshots & demo available • Webinar at 11 am PT / 2 pm ET • OpenStack Summit, May 12-16 • All sponsors and speakers must be registered by Monday, April 15, and registration prices go up starting the 16th • More than 50 press and analysts registered • New Ops Meetup happening Monday & Friday • Thank you to 90+ sponsors
