Hello Leslie and the list,
Myself and Harsh (in CC) will like to submit a proposal for this
workshop. Details are as below.
Pls let me know if any more info is needed.
=============================================================
Biography
---------
* Deepak C Shetty is working with IBM's Linux Technology Center (LTC),
Bangalore, India, in the area of Open Virtualization. Earlier he has
worked in area of Virtualization aware File Systems. Prior to being part
of LTC, Deepak worked in the areas of Platform Management (IBM Systems
Director product) and Hardware Validation of IBM Power systems, in IBM .
Deepak holds a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electronics from Pune
University, India and Diploma in Advanced Computing from C-DAC, Pune,
India.
Other areas of interest include software design and stamp collection
(philately).
* Harsh Prateek Bora is working at IBM's Linux Technology Center (LTC) as
an open source developer having interest in the Virtualization stack in
Linux. He has contributed to Qemu, Libvirt and fs/9p for the development
of VirtFS (Qemu/KVM based virtualization aware file-system passthrough)
beside various other projects. Before joining IBM, He has worked at
Honeywell Aerospace for the development of embedded software for an
aircraft gadget (Apex Edge KSN 770). Currently at IBM LTC, He works for
Linux
RAS team improving VPD (Vital Product Data) tools for Power PC arch based
hardware. He is working on providing support for Qemu-Gluster storage
backend
in Libvirt out of his personal interest.
Abstract Title
---------------
Integrating GlusterFS as a storage domain in VDSM and supporting storage
array offloads from VDSM
Abstract
--------
This talk will focus on 2 aspects:
* GlusterFS as a storage domain in VDSM - WIP - ~30min.
This presentation will discuss the challenges in integrating GlusterFS
as storage domain in VDSM, the different approaches taken and the pros and
cons. The new GlusterFS storage domain is necessary to support the native
integration of GlusterFS in QEMU. This talk will also touch upon the Gluster
enablements needed in libvirt and QEMU for VDSM to consume GlusterFS as a storage
domain. This work is part of the bigger goal of positioning GlusterFS as a
storage/Filesystem backend for QEMU in the Open Virtualization stack.

* Enabling storage array offloads via libStorageMgmt (libSM) - WIP -
~10min.
Goal of this work is to provide a framework in VDSM to exploit
storage array
offload features via libSM. libSM is an open-source project which
provides vendor
agnostic API for managing external storage arrays. The initial proposal on
integrating libSM with VDSM has been discussed on the VDSM list. This
talk will
touch upon libSM and its capabilties, VDSM-libSM integration goals,
approaches,
advantages, challenges, current status& future work.

Total time anticipated is 45 min - 40 min for the talk and 5 min for Q&A.
Deepak & Harsh will be co-presenting in this talk.
Virtualization and Storage administrators, oVirt/VDSM developers as well
as users of KVM virtualization will benefit from this talk.
