As a community, each member needs to make sure that their specific use case has the resources it needs to flourish. If some team cares about Gluster in openstack, they should step forward and provide the engineering and hardware resources needed to make it succeed.

Red Hat has and continues to pour resources into Gluster - Gluster is thriving. We have loads of work going on with gluster in RHEV, Kubernetes, NFS Ganesha and Samba.

What we are not doing and that has been clear for many years now is to invest in Gluster in openstack.




OK, I'll bite.

Why is RedHat not interested in Gluster in OpenStack?

Its obvious from my years lurking on the Openstack Mailing lists that the OpenStack community is most comfortable with Ceph. When asked about Gluster, I've seen vague 'complaints' which are mostly no longer relevant and more likely arise from a lack of familiarity with modern Gluster.

I've always been a little surprised the RH people didn't correct that. Instead the OpenStack=Ceph and RHEV=Gluster mindsets seems to have been ingrained.
