The document discusses OpenStack Trove, a database as a service (DBaaS) that facilitates self-service database provisioning and management for both relational and non-relational databases. It highlights Trove's capabilities, such as automated administration, multi-database support, and production deployments by companies like eBay and HP Cloud. The text also mentions future enhancements planned for Trove, including additional database support and improved replication and clustering functionalities.

12. The Future of Trove
§ Planned for Kilo
§ Additional replication and clustering capabilities
§ Support for additional databases
§ Looking ahead
§ Transitioning from basic infrastructure to a platform
§ Enterprise needs: Security, monitoring, metering/billing
§ More database support: Oracle, Vertica

13. What’s Unique About Database as a Service?
§ Databases are different
§ Different management skillsets
§ Requires significant administration
§ Each DB with own “personality”
§ Many don’t like the cloud
§ Rely on other basic systems
§ Trove is different
§ Each DB needs own guest agent
§ Consistent management across instances
§ Images need tuning and customization
§ Guest agents more than just drivers
§ Trove leverages Nova, Cinder …
