Roadmap for 4.x and 5.0

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Roadmap

Needs updating. Some of the work must have been completed since it is 
slotted for 4.6.

Perhaps this is the page to start laying out the "new" release protocol 
and to start to collect the tasks for 4.10 and 4.11

It would also be a good place to collect ideas for 5.0 so that we can 
see what the proposed release numbering and delivery schedule actually 
means in terms of delivery of functionality.

The mailing list discussion has been pretty robust and a lot of writing 
has been done that deserves a more permanent home and some more concrete 
descriptions of proposed work.

Re: Roadmap for 4.x and 5.0

Posted by Ron Wheeler <rw...@artifact-software.com>.
I added 2 columns to 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Roadmap to 
facilitate the discussion.

"Last Updated" can give the reader some idea about the currency of the 
information.
"Comments" should allow some light discussion. Heavy discussion could be 
a good indication that the item needs its own child page.

Please have a look to see if any of these tasks are yours and bring them 
up to date.
If you think that a task has died, please at least add a comment or if 
you are certain, delete the task.

Feel free to remove my questions from the comment field if you update 
the task status.

The title of the page is Roadmap and it starts out "This is the roadmap 
for CloudStack code development." which implies that there is some level 
of shared commitment to implement these things within a timeframe that 
would match users expectations for "soon".

A lot of the items do not have JIRAs.
Does this mean that they are so far out in the future that they are not 
really relevant to a roadmap and should be moved to a "wishlist"?

The title also gives the expectation that this covers all of the major 
enhancements in the foreseeable future.
Anything that is being worked on for 4.10 should be on this list by now.

Improve logging using UUIDs and internal metrics

Better error handling

Processing Logs



Storage :

Remove NFS dependency

Snapshots on SAN

Network

Improved GSLB

Network ACLS

Globo DNS API

VR: dnsmasq to better dns

Better LB

Improve VR, VR agent, API for VR

Hybrid setups across domains

L2 on L3 (sbp)

VPC: inter vpc, private gateways

GSLB Multi-zone



UI, API:

2Factor Authentication

Refactor API + core



Misc:

Disaster Recovery, Import infra

Terraform support

Architecture

Refactor management Core

Apparmour/Selinux support (KVM)

Persistance layer: away from DAO
