Spec Lite: Glance cluster awareness

project

glance

problem

Individual glance nodes are fully un-aware that there might be other nodes operating in the same space. This lack of communication between the nodes causes issues separating workers and operating in different locations.

solution

We have message queues already utilized in notifications and other projects. Lets expand that for communications between different glance-api nodes to gain better operational efficiency.

impacts

DocImpact

alternatives

We could use something else than the message queues but effectively that would end up recreating something like registry but just as a message broker.

timeline

Possible initial functionality in Rocky, more use cases covered S and beyond. This can be expanded fairly easily so we can proceed as time permits.
