Re: Load balancing and Atlas-LB

 

Hi Semy,

Yes, the Atlas project is active and is in progress. The codebase for the LBaaS service and instructions on setting it up are on github at http://github.com/rackspace/atlas-lb. The Atlas spec API 1.1 that is implemented by the codebase is documented at http://wiki.openstack.org/Atlas-LB. The current code base supports 2 external drivers (we call them "adapters"), and there is a simple interface for adding others.

We have weekly meetings every Wednesday at 5:00pm GMT to discuss the project. Let me know if you'd like to join the meetings and I'll add you to the invite list and send you instructions on the conferencing service we use.

Thanks
Youcef

Subject: [Openstack] Load balancing and Atlas-LB

Hi,

Where can i find any informations about load balancing in OpenStack? How is it implemented and where? On wiki I've found something about Atlas-LB. Is this project finished? Or still in progress? There is no roadmap for it so it's really hard to find out the progress.

I'm plannig to write master thesis about load balancing algorithms and i'd like to implement some of them inside OpenStack or as external driver (according to Atlas-LB presentation), but right now i don't know how to write one connected to Atlas-LB or even is Atlas-LB still active? Are there any load balancing algorithms insied OpenStack? Where can i start if i'd like to do research about load balancing and exact algorithms in OpenStack?
