[pve-devel] Roadmap - improved SDN support

[Naumann, Thomas]

Hi,

at datacenter of university we are working on a saas-platform to
automaticly deploy VMs, container, networks, services via web-gui for
students and employies. So, we are searching for a technicly basis for
this project. 
Because "Proxmox" runs several Clusters in our datacenter and does a
great jobs we wonder if it could be a basis for this project. We known
there is also "Openstack" but I think it might be some kind of
overkill.
What do you think about that?
