<p>OpenStack is a cloud operating system that controls large pools
of compute, storage, and networking resources in a data center.
OpenContrail is a network virtualization (SDN) solution
comprising network controller, virtual router and analytics
engine, which can be integrated with cloud orchestration systems
like OpenStack or CloudStack.</p>
<p>The goal of this work is to enable &os; as a fully supported
compute host for OpenStack, using OpenContrail virtualized
networking. The main areas of development are the
following:</p>
<ul>
<li>OpenStack compute driver (<tt>nova-compute</tt>) for the
&os; <tt>bhyve(4)</tt> hypervisor.</li>
<li>OpenContrail vRouter (forwarding-plane kernel module) port
to &os;.</li>
<li>Integration, performance optimizations.</li>
</ul>
<p>The current state of development features a working demo of
OpenStack with compute node components running on a &os; host:</p>
<ul>
<li>The native <tt>bhyve(4)</tt> hypervisor is driven by a
<tt>nova-compute</tt> component for spawning guest instances
and a <tt>nova-network</tt> component for providing simple
networking between those guests.</li>
<li>The <tt>nova-network</tt> approach (based on local host
bridging) is becoming an obsolete technology in OpenStack and
was used here only for a demonstration and proof-of-concept
purposes, without exploring all the possible features.</li>
<li>The main objective is to move to OpenContrail-based
networking, therefore become compliant with the modern OpenStack
networking API ("neutron").</li>
</ul>
<p>This project is sponsored by Juniper Networks, Inc.</p>
