The Cinder Library, also known as cinderlib, is a Python library that
|
|
leverages the Cinder project to provide an object oriented abstraction
|
|
around Cinder's storage drivers to allow their usage directly without
|
|
running any of the Cinder services or surrounding services, such as
|
|
KeyStone, MySQL or RabbitMQ.
|
|
|
|
This is the Tech Preview release of the library, and is intended for
|
|
developers who only need the basic CRUD functionality of the drivers and
|
|
don't care for all the additional features Cinder provides such as quotas,
|
|
replication, multi-tenancy, migrations, retyping, scheduling, backups,
|
|
authorization, authentication, REST API, etc.
|
|
features:
|
|
- Use a Cinder driver without running a DBMS, Message broker, or Cinder
|
|
service.
|
|
|
|
- Using multiple simultaneous drivers on the same application.
|
