| Hardening and testing | Jonas Pfannschmidt |
| Agent refactoring | Saad zaher |
| Documentation improvement | Guillermo Garcia |
| Disaster recovery | Fabrizio Fresco |
Hardening and testing
In Newton, we want to increase as much as possible the test coverage for Freezer. This include better and more unit tests and tempest tests.
Agent refactoring
In Newton, we want to make our freezer-agent pluggable for four of its core internal parts:
- Pluggable storage: In order to support more storage backend
- Pluggable snapshot: In order to support more snapshoting technique (like xfs, brtfs, ...)
- Pluggable application: Through a system of hooks, we want to facilitate the support of new application aware backups.
- Pluggable engine: In order to support other ways of processing data.
Disaster recovery
In Newton we will kick off freezer-dr in order to provide tooling to support disaster recovery cases where backup/restore is not able to provide a good enough RTO.
Documentation improvement
In Newton, we will refactor our documentation. This includes mooving it away from the READMEs, refactoring and updating the content as well as improving the developper documentation.
