Understanding Cinder Performance in an OpenStack Environment.
We will present our findings around storage performance for QEMU/KVM. We look at hypervisor and VM storage tuning variables. The number of VMs per host and different methods to connect storage to an instance and their impact on storage performance. We will also look at Cinder API performance for a large number of provisioning requests and other operations.
What can I expect to learn?
Key takeaways:
- The key storage tuning variables on the Hypervisor
- The key storage tuning variables on an Instance
- The best attachment methods for iSCSI to instances (this may turn into recommendations to the OpenStack community for enhancements)
- VM density limitations per Hypervisor imposed by storage
- Expected storage performance of VMs.
