[libvirt] Etsy uses Libvirt... :)
Hey everyone, Just noticed that Etsy uses libvirt: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/2012/03/13/making-it-virtually-easy-to-deploy-on... Of specific note, there's this bit: "Libvirt supports live migrations across non-shared storage (in QEMU 0.12.2+) with zero downtime which makes it easy to allocate and balance VM’s across hosts if adjustments need to be made throughout the pool." Seems like a win, eh? :) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- Aeolus Community Manager http://www.aeolusproject.org

Thanks for the research. Would you care to help write up a documentation patch that mentions this as yet another client project? If you don't have time, I will probably get around to it later in the week. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

Turns out it's an internal use, rather than a released open source project, so not really something to mention on our pages (yet). But still fun to see others using our stuff. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

Would you be up for pinging the blog author, asking him if there's areas for improvement in libvirt they'd be keen on? + Justin -- Aeolus Community Manager http://www.aeolusproject.org
