<strong>Overview</strong>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>RefStack intends on being THE source of tools for interoperability testing
|
|
of OpenStack clouds.</p>
|
|
<p>RefStack provides users in the OpenStack community with a Tempest wrapper,
|
|
refstack-client, that helps to verify interoperability of their cloud
|
|
with other OpenStack clouds. It does so by validating any cloud
|
|
implementation against the OpenStack Tempest API tests.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>RefStack and DefCore</strong> - The prototypical use case for RefStack provides
|
|
the DefCore Committee the tools for vendors and other users to run API
|
|
tests against their clouds to provide the DefCore committee with a reliable
|
|
overview of what APIs and capabilities are being used in the marketplace.
|
|
This will help to guide the DefCore-defined capabilities and help ensure
|
|
interoperability across the entire OpenStack ecosystem. It can also
|
|
be used to validate clouds against existing DefCore capability lists,
|
|
giving you assurance that your cloud faithfully implements OpenStack
|
|
standards.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Value Add for Vendors</strong> - Vendors can use RefStack to demonstrate that
|
|
their distros, and/or their customers' installed clouds remain with OpenStack
|
|
after their software has been incorporated into the distro or cloud.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
<strong>RefStack consists of two parts:</strong>

|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>
|
|
<strong>refstack-api</strong>
|
|
</dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<p>Our API isn't just for us to collect data from private and public cloud
|
|
vendors. It can be used by vendors in house to compare interoperability
|
|
data over time.</p>
