Gridcentric Virtual Memory Streaming compatability (QEMU)
Registered by
Adin Scannell
Gridcentric Virtual Memory Streaming (VMS) is a technology to start VMs from already-running snapshots (saving time, I/O and allowing a greater density of VMs). This is principally used in OpenStack deployments.
We maintain a small collection of patches for various versions of qemu that enables VMS with KVM (some are already upstream). We would like to include these patches in Ubuntu qemu. This would allow users of our technology to use standard Ubuntu packages (benefiting from security updates, etc.) and make Ubuntu a very easy platform to deploy our technology.
