[Feature Request] Implement LBaaS in Yaook #719

Open anjastrunk opened 1 month ago

anjastrunk commented 1 month ago

Yaook as a further implementation of SCS standards, does not support a standard conform load balancer, yet. We have to provide one. At this, the only requirement is to provide a OpenStack conform endpoint to the user. The behavior behind the sense does not matter.

Tasks:

This issue is related to #587, which standardizes mandatory and recommended IaaS Service and LBaaS should be part of it.

Evaluate options for LBaaS

FTR, here is one of the main problems that prevented integration of Octavia in Yaook so far: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2007370#comment-153426

In Yaook, any database instances are running behind HAProxy instances. This does seem to lead to severe problems with Octavia in production, according to the linked issue.

We should at least consider having a look at improving Octavia and/or its integration as re-implementing the whole Octavia LBaaS v2 API using a different LB framework will be no easy feat either.

We should get in touch with @horazont and check if there were other issues observed with Octavia than the one mentioned above that would need to be addressed as well.
