+  <div class="post-content">
+    <p>One of the big requests whilst we were replacing <code>httplib</code> with the <code>requests</code> package in 2.0 was why didn&#39;t
+we use a HTTP library that supports <em>asynchronous</em> API calls.</p>
+
+<p>The intention for 2.0 and replacing the HTTP backend classes was to improve the usability of the project, by making SSL
+certificates easier to manage, improving the maintainability of our source code by using an active 3rd party package and
+also improving performance and stability.</p>
+
+<p>Apache Libcloud already has documentation on threaded libraries like gevent and callback-based libraries like Twisted, see
+<a href="https://libcloud.readthedocs.io/en/latest/other/using-libcloud-in-multithreaded-and-async-environments.html">using libcloud in multithreaded environments</a>
+for examples.</p>
+
+<p><a href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#">PEP 492</a>, implemented in Python 3.5 provides a new coroutine protocol using methods,
+<code>__await__</code> for classes, a coroutine method wrapper, or a method that returns a coroutine object.
+Also async <a href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#asynchronous-iterators-and-async-for">iterators</a> and <a href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#asynchronous-context-managers-and-async-with">context managers</a>
+have been introduced.</p>
+
+<p>We would like to take advantage of the new language features by offering APIs in Apache Libcloud without breaking backward compatibility and
+compatibility for users of &lt;Python 3.5.</p>
+
+<p>Use cases for this would be:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Being able to fetch <code>Node</code> or <code>StorageObject</code>s from multiple geographies or drivers simultaneously.</li>
+<li>Being able to quickly upload or download storage objects by parallelizing operations on the <code>StorageDriver</code>.</li>
+<li>Being able to call a long-running API method (e.g. generate report), whilst running other code.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Design 1 - async context managers <a href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/1016">PR 1016</a></h2>
+
+<p>This design would allow drivers to operate in 2 modes, the first is for synchronous method calls, they return list or object
+data as per usual. The second mode, API methods like <code>NodeDriver.list_nodes</code> would return a <a href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#coroutine-objects">coroutine object</a>
+and could be awaited or gathered using an event loop.</p>

+<h2>Design 2 - Additional methods in each driver for coroutines <a href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/1027">PR 1027</a></h2>
+
+<p>This is the second design concept for async support in Libcloud.</p>
+
+<p>The concept here is to have Asynchronous Mixins, <code>LibcloudConnection</code> uses requests and <code>LibcloudAsyncConnection</code> uses aiohttp for async transport <a href="https://github.com/tonybaloney/libcloud/blob/d4fe097476d2f02941e17d5e1b1d405fcf44c0f7/libcloud/connection_async.py#L22-L42">see</a></p>
+
+<p>The LibcloudAsyncConnection is an implementation detail of AsyncConnection, which is the API for the drivers to consume <a href="https://github.com/tonybaloney/libcloud/blob/d4fe097476d2f02941e17d5e1b1d405fcf44c0f7/libcloud/common/base.py#L742-L778">see</a></p>
+
+<p>The drivers then use this mixin for their custom connection classes, e.g.</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="python language-python" data-lang="python"><span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">GoogleStorageConnection</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">ConnectionUserAndKey</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">AsyncConnection</span><span class="p">):</span>
+    <span class="o">...</span>
+</code></pre></div>
+
+<p>They then inherit from <code>libcloud.storage.base.StorageAsyncDriver</code>, which uses a new set of base methods, e.g. <code>iterate_containers_async</code> and can be implemented like this:</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="python language-python" data-lang="python">        <span class="n">async</span> <span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">iterate_containers_async</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="bp">self</span><span class="p">):</span>

+                                                 <span class="n">xpath</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">&#39;Buckets/Bucket&#39;</span><span class="p">)</span>
+                <span class="k">return</span> <span class="n">containers</span>
+
+            <span class="k">raise</span> <span class="n">LibcloudError</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">&#39;Unexpected status code: </span><span class="si">%s</span><span class="s">&#39;</span> <span class="o">%</span> <span class="p">(</span><span class="n">response</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">status</span><span class="p">),</span>

+<h2>Design 3 - Initializer with &quot;<em>async</em>&quot; mode</h2>
+
+<p>This option is similar to 2, except that if a driver is instantiated with &quot;<code>async=True</code>&quot;,
+then all driver class methods would return coroutine objects. Internally, it would
+patch the Connection class with the AsyncConnection class.</p>
+
+<p>The downside of this is that all method calls to a driver would need to be awaited or used
+by an event loop.</p>

+
+<p>Got a better idea? Have an API or design, the question we&#39;re asking is 
+&quot;if you wanted to use Libcloud for an async application, what would the code look like?&quot; This helps us design
+the API and the implementation details can follow.</p>

-    <p>With Libcloud 1.0.0 around the corner, it&#39;s time to have a spring clean of the compute drivers. Granted, it&#39;s not spring everywhere -actually
-I&#39;m writing from Sydney, Australia where it&#39;s definitely summer.</p>
-
-<p>Looking at the 52 providers in the 0.21.0 release, I have identified 5 providers that are no longer available or open.</p>
-
-<ul>
-<li>CloudFrames
-
-<ul>
-<li>Looks dead - website doesn&#39;t work, can&#39;t see any references to this online.</li>
-<li><code>libcloud.compute.drivers.cloudframes</code></li>

-<h3>Handling deprecated drivers</h3>
-
-<p>For 1.0.0, we need a clean and user-friendly way of handling deprecated drivers as well as keeping the repository clean from legacy code.</p>
-
-<p>The most obvious implementation is that calls to <code>get_driver(Provider.NINEFOLD)</code> as an example will return a user error message saying
-this provider is no longer supported with a link to a new article and an alternative solution.</p>
-
-<p>Currently, users trying to instantiate a HPE public cloud driver for example will get a connection error, which is not user friendly.</p>
-
-<h3>New compute drivers in 1.0.0-pre2</h3>
-
-<p>The upcoming release, so currently available in trunk contains some new compute drivers.</p>

+    <p>With Libcloud 1.0.0 around the corner, it&#39;s time to have a spring clean of the compute drivers. Granted, it&#39;s not spring everywhere -actually
+I&#39;m writing from Sydney, Australia where it&#39;s definitely summer.</p>

+<h3>Handling deprecated drivers</h3>
+
+<p>For 1.0.0, we need a clean and user-friendly way of handling deprecated drivers as well as keeping the repository clean from legacy code.</p>
+
+<p>The most obvious implementation is that calls to <code>get_driver(Provider.NINEFOLD)</code> as an example will return a user error message saying
+this provider is no longer supported with a link to a new article and an alternative solution.</p>
+
+<p>Currently, users trying to instantiate a HPE public cloud driver for example will get a connection error, which is not user friendly.</p>
+
+<h3>New compute drivers in 1.0.0-pre2</h3>
+
+<p>The upcoming release, so currently available in trunk contains some new compute drivers.</p>

-  <div class="post-content">
-    <p>This is an announcement for users of the Linode driver for Libcloud who might
-have started experiencing issues recently.</p>
-
-<h2>Background</h2>
-
-<p>A couple of Libcloud users have reported that they have recently started
-experiencing issues when talking to the Linode API using Libcloud. They have
-received messages similar to the one shown below.</p>
-
-<pre>
-socket.error: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer
-</pre>
-
-<p>It turns out that the issue is related to the used SSL / TLS version. For
-compatibility and security reasons (Libcloud also supports older Python
-versions), Libcloud uses TLS v1.0 by default.</p>
-
-<p>Linode recently dropped support for TLS v1.0 and it now only support TLS &gt;=
-v1.1. This means Libcloud won&#39;t work out of the box anymore.</p>
-
-<h2>Solution</h2>
-
-<p>If you are experiencing this issue, you should update your code to use TLS v1.2
-or TLS v1.1 as shown below.</p>
-
-<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="text language-text" data-lang="text">import ssl
-
-import libcloud.security
-libcloud.security.SSL_VERSION = ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_1
-# or even better if your system and Python version supports TLS v1.2
-libcloud.security.SSL_VERSION = ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2
-
-# Instantiate and work with the Linode driver here...
-</code></pre></div>
-
-<p>Keep in mind that for this to work you need to have a recent version of OpenSSL
-installed on your system and you need to use Python &gt;= 3.4 or Python 2.7.9.</p>
-
-<p>For more details please see recently updated <a href="https://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/other/ssl-certificate-validation.html#changing-used-ssl-tls-version">documentation</a>. If you are
-still experiencing issues or have any questions, please feel free to reach
-us via the mailing list or IRC.</p>
-
-<p>Note: Even if you are not experiencing any issues, it&#39;s generally a good idea
-to use the highest version of TLS supported by your system and the provider you
-use.</p>
-
-<h2>Quick note on ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</h2>
-
-<p>Python uses <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> constant by default. When this constant is
-used, it will let client known to pick the highest protocol version which both
-the client and server support (it will be selecting between SSL v3.0, TLS v1.0,
-TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2).</p>
-
-<p>We use <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1</code> instead of <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> for security
-and compatibility reasons. SSL v3.0 is considered broken and unsafe and using
-<code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> can result in an increased risk for a downgrade attack.</p>

+  <div class="post-content">
+    <p>This is an announcement for users of the Linode driver for Libcloud who might
+have started experiencing issues recently.</p>
+
+<h2>Background</h2>
+
+<p>A couple of Libcloud users have reported that they have recently started
+experiencing issues when talking to the Linode API using Libcloud. They have
+received messages similar to the one shown below.</p>
+
+<pre>
+socket.error: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer
+</pre>
+
+<p>It turns out that the issue is related to the used SSL / TLS version. For
+compatibility and security reasons (Libcloud also supports older Python
+versions), Libcloud uses TLS v1.0 by default.</p>
+
+<p>Linode recently dropped support for TLS v1.0 and it now only support TLS &gt;=
+v1.1. This means Libcloud won&#39;t work out of the box anymore.</p>
+
+<h2>Solution</h2>
+
+<p>If you are experiencing this issue, you should update your code to use TLS v1.2
+or TLS v1.1 as shown below.</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="text language-text" data-lang="text">import ssl
+
+import libcloud.security
+libcloud.security.SSL_VERSION = ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_1
+# or even better if your system and Python version supports TLS v1.2
+libcloud.security.SSL_VERSION = ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2
+
+# Instantiate and work with the Linode driver here...
+</code></pre></div>
+
+<p>Keep in mind that for this to work you need to have a recent version of OpenSSL
+installed on your system and you need to use Python &gt;= 3.4 or Python 2.7.9.</p>
+
+<p>For more details please see recently updated <a href="https://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/other/ssl-certificate-validation.html#changing-used-ssl-tls-version">documentation</a>. If you are
+still experiencing issues or have any questions, please feel free to reach
+us via the mailing list or IRC.</p>
+
+<p>Note: Even if you are not experiencing any issues, it&#39;s generally a good idea
+to use the highest version of TLS supported by your system and the provider you
+use.</p>
+
+<h2>Quick note on ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</h2>
+
+<p>Python uses <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> constant by default. When this constant is
+used, it will let client known to pick the highest protocol version which both
+the client and server support (it will be selecting between SSL v3.0, TLS v1.0,
+TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2).</p>
+
+<p>We use <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1</code> instead of <code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> for security
+and compatibility reasons. SSL v3.0 is considered broken and unsafe and using
+<code>ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23</code> can result in an increased risk for a downgrade attack.</p>
