Re: [Engine-devel] Announcing a proof of concept REST API for VDSM

I don't think this is mutually exclusive with having AMQP used for comms between VDSM & ovirt-engine. One possible implementation strategy would be to have a 'vdsm-qmf' agent running on the node which talks REST to VDSM and translate it to QMF & vica-verca. Or you could have an optional plugin for VDSM which enabled AQMP as an alternative to REST.

Right, there are a number of AMQP <-> REST projects out there, so shouldn't be mutually exclusive.

The key is really to ensure that VDSM retains the ability to be deployed with minimal mandatory infrastructure burden/reqiurements.

I completely agree. thanks, -chris
