This patch aligns the quota enforcement in GBP with the changes made in Neutron quota management as a part of the following blueprint and implementation patches referenced therein: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/better-quotas The decorator @resource_registry.tracked_resources in the neutron.quota.resource_registry module is applied to the GBP and Service Chain plugin __init__ methods. In addition, the local_api module is also enhanced to enforce quotas when GBP and Service Chain resources are created implicitly. Older UTs that test the quotas have been preserved thus validating the approach (they have only been moved to the appropriate test classes on account of the resource tracking logic having moved from the earlier DB modules to the plugin modules). Closes-bug: 1594215 Change-Id: I38093426c89d1f4398c40da1f3392c0988831ff8
Group Based Policy (GBP) provides declarative abstractions for achieving scalable intent-based infrastructure automation.
GBP complements the OpenStack networking model with the notion of policies that can be applied between groups of network endpoints. As users look beyond basic connectivity, richer network services with diverse implementations and network properties are naturally expressed as policies. Examples include service chaining, QoS, path properties, access control, etc.
GBP allows application administrators to express their networking requirements using a Group and a Policy Rules-Set abstraction. The specifics of policy rendering are left to the underlying pluggable policy driver.
GBP model also supports a redirect operation that makes it easy to abstract and consume complex network service chains and graphs.
