Collectd and Vitrage Integration: An Eventful Presentation
The ability to monitor the Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI) where VNFs are in operation will be a key part of Service Assurance within an NFV environment. The relevant events and metrics must be reported to higher level fault management systems, to detect violations (and enforce SLAs), as well as faults or degradation in the performance of NFVI resources. If fixed function appliances are going to be replaced by virtualized appliances the service levels, manageability and service assurance needs to remain consistent or improve on what is available today. One specific use case that needs to be supported in NFV deployments is the ability to detect and correct noisy neighbor co-tenants.
This talk will showcase how Intel Resource Director technology can be used in conjunction with Vitrage (the Root Cause Analysis service in OpenStack) to detect and correct a noisy neighbor, as a result of collaboration with the Barometer (NFVI Service Assurance) project in OPNFV.
