Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 15:39:54 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/resource-optimization-service.

Description:

Currently, in OpenStack, there is no resource optimization service to balance resource for the cluster, this might cause some resource cannot be used efficiently. It is better to add a resouce optimization service to monitor and balance resource.

We can first create a service framework then add optimization service one by one,such as load balance policy, ha policy, power management policy etc. Each specified policy can be a plug-in driver.

After this service was added, OpenStack will  have VMWare DRS, DPM, HA like function.
