Policy as a

Service

Governance and compliance for dynamic infrastructures.

Reliability: Added support for replicated (load-balanced) policy engines

for high-availability and high-query-throughput deployments.

- Added support for warm-standby data-source drivers managed by

Pacemaker.

Telemetry

Reliably collect data on the utilization of the physical and virtual

resources comprising deployed clouds, persist the data for subsequent

retrieval and analysis, and trigger actions when defined criteria are met.

Projects: Aodh, Ceilometer, Gnocchi,...

CloudKitty

Fills the gap between metrics collection systems like ceilometer and a

billing system. Metrics are collected, aggregated and processed through

different rating modules. Querying retrieves processed data and

easily generate reports.
