Re: Remove Zones code - FFE

 

Just raising another deployment waiting on this new Zone implementation - we currently have 2000 cores sitting idle in another datacentre that we can use "better" if this is done.

How can we help? ;)

Regards,

Tom

Understood, timing is everything. I'll let Chris talk about expected
timing for the replacement. From a deployers side, nothing would really
change, just some configuration options ... but a replacement should be
available.

I'm sure we could get it working pretty easily. The Keystone integration
was the biggest pita.

I can keep this branch fresh with trunk for when we're ready to pull the
trigger.

+1 to Vish's points. I know there are some folks coming online in the
Folsom timeline that can help out with the new stuff, but this feels a
bit like going backwards.

I am all for pulling this out, but I'm a bit concerned with the fact
that we have nothing to replace it with. There are some groups still
trying to use it. MercadoLibre is trying to use it for example. I know
you guys are trying to replace this with something better, but it
would be nice not to break people for 7+ months


So I guess I have some questions:
1.a) is the current implementation completely broken?

1.b) if yes, is it fixable

2) If we do remove this, what can we tell people that need something
like zones between now and the Folsom release?

As part of the new (and optional) Zones code coming down the pipe,
part of this is to remove the old Zones implementation.

So, can I? can I? Huh?
