Application Data Protection as a Service for OpenStack
Project description
Our mission statement is:
* Formalize Application Data Protection in OpenStack (APIs, Services, Plugins, …)
* Be able to protect Any Resource in OpenStack (as well as their dependencies)
* Allow Diversity of vendor solutions, capabilities and implementations without compromising usability
* Open Architecture
** Vendors create plugins that implement Protection mechanisms for different OpenStack resources
* User perspective: Protect App Deployment
** Configure and manage custom protection plans on the deployed resources (topology, VMs, volumes, images, …)
* Admin perspective: Define Protectable Resources
** Decide what plugins protect which resources, what is available for the user
** Decide where users can protect their resources
