Re: Openstack API - Volumes?

 

Hi Adam,

We have just begun an R&D effort for building a scalable block storage
service with commodity hardware.  We are still working more on the back end
specifics for this, so we haven't spent much time looking at the end user
apis yet.  We are open to hearing feedback on that front though, and plan on
discussing it more at the next developer summit.

This project will be developed in the open, and when complete will
be submitted to the Policy Board as a candidate for inclusion in Openstack
proper.  I don't have a lot of details to share yet, but plan on discussing
much at the next summit.
