As a result, database provisioning (codename <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.openstack.org\/wiki\/Trove\">Trove<\/a>) will be an official part of the Icehouse (2014.1) release, while message queues (codename <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.openstack.org\/wiki\/Marconi\">Marconi<\/a>) and bare-metal server provisioning (codename <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.openstack.org\/wiki\/Ironic\">Ironic<\/a>) will be in incubation with a view to becoming official in the as-yet-unnamed J (2014.2) release.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rackspace.com\/blog\/bringing-go-to-the-cloud-with-the-gophercloud-sdk\/\">Bringing Go To The Cloud With The Gophercloud SDK<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Go is a rapidly emerging programming language created out of Google by Rob Pike and Ken Thompson. Rackspace is investing in Go by creating a multi-cloud software development kit (SDK) for the Go programming community called <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/rackspace\/gophercloud\">Gophercloud<\/a>. It will support <a href=\"http:\/\/www.openstack.org\/\">OpenStack<\/a> first, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rackspace.com\/cloud\/\">Rackspace Cloud<\/a> second.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/amo-probos.org\/post\/15\">Scaling the OpenStack Test Environment<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>A year ago <a href=\"http:\/\/amo-probos.org\/\">James Blair<\/a> introduced <a href=\"https:\/\/launchpad.net\/zuul\">Zuul<\/a>, a program he developed to drive the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.openstack.org\/\">OpenStack<\/a> project&#8217;s gating system. In short, each change to an OpenStack project must pass unit and integration tests before it is merged. Over the past year, the OpenStack project has grown tremendously, with 62 git repositories related to OpenStack, 30 for the project infrastructure, and an additional 75 unofficial projects that share the same testing infrastructure. In all, the development infrastructure currently serves 167 repositories. They run up to <b>720 test jobs per hour<\/b>, and our dynamic provisioning system has pushed our test node count up to 328 nodes online and running tests simultaneously. Over the past year, the OpenStack Infra team made a large number of changes to prepare for this load. This blog post by jeblair has some of the key innovations that help us test at scale.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"><!--\nH3 { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }H3.ctl { font-family: \"Lohit Hindi\"; }P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }A:link {  }\n--><\/style>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ameade\/qtpy-vim\">For VIM users out there: <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ameade\/qtpy-vim\">qtpy.vim <\/a><\/h3>\n<p>A simple way of running python unit tests from within VIM based on the cursor location.
