More than happy to discuss it! If we can do things to support it that don't rely on other projects (e.g. Keystone) all the better. Otherwise we should discuss it as a community and work together towards a federated federation solution. ;-)

Subject: Re: [Openstack] [Dashboard] Multi-region support in Horizon?

In the short term you might be able to setup something with a horizon customization module...

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/topics/customizing.html

In the long term I think federation should be a concern for grizzly planning in horizon.  But maybe I am just being a little too optimistic.

Hi all,

I'd like to use horizon to manage clusters in multiple data centers(regions).  Currently, horizon supports multi-region by means of deploying one keystone service for each region. Thus we have to manage multiple keystone services for all the regions(creating users or projects, etc.), which doesn't make sense. Should it be better to allow users to choose service endpoints(nova or glance) according to region name? At least, novaclient works as this way: you can provide region name(via --os_region_name option) as a filter to select nova service endpoint to access, so that we could deploy just one keystone service to manage services on different regions. Or is there any better workaround?

Best Regards.
