OpenStack-Health Dashboard and Dealing with Data from the Gate

The OpenStack gate operates at a tremendous scale there are hundreds gate jobs run in a single day. It is impossible for anyone to track by hand. This is why a lot of tooling has been developed or leveraged to help make sense of things. However, with all this tooling there is still a complexity problem with the number of tools available.

Late in Liberty openstack-health was created, the goal is to be the first stop for anyone that is looking at test results can go. It leverages other tools when appropriate to try and be a starting point. It is also hosted on the community infrastructure and continuously deployed using the community development infrastructure.

This talk will explain the openstack-health dashboard, how it works, it's current limitations, and the future of the project. It'll also cover some related tools that are available and how they all fit together, and how you can use everything together to take a more data driven approach to analyze and test OpenStack with the gate.


What can I expect to learn?

Attendees should learn about the openstack-health dashboard, how it works, how to use it, and where help is needed. It'll also provide an overview of other tools available in the community and how to deal with data from the gate in general. It'll also explain where assitance is needed in the ongoing  efforts to improve the tooling in this space.
