NetAPP proposed File service for OpenStack
NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) today announced it has submitted a prototype and proposal for a file share service capability for consideration by the OpenStack Foundation Technical Committee and community at large. The proposal will be a topic for discussion forinclusion in the Havana release this week at the OpenStack Summit (April 15–18) in Portland, Oregon.Presently, OpenStack does not offer native management support for file-based storage systems, and NetApp is proposing adding a "file share service" that is broad enough to address a range of file system types, either as anextension to the existing Cinder project (in its current form referred to as OpenStack block storage) orimplemented as a separate project. The goal of this integration is to extend access to applications written for file-based storage without the need for a separate management interface. To help inform the discussion, NetApp has designed anddeveloped a prototype, which includes code contributions and extended APIs, as well as both a reference and a back-end implementation specific to NetApp®. The prototype is available as a recent submission to OpenStack’s Cinder project.
