Recommands to setup cloudkitty through an other WSGI services like Apache 'mod_wsgi'. And the community has set a community wide goal in Pike cycle: "Control Plane API endpoints deployment via WSGI" https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/pike/deploy-api-in-wsgi.html Work Item: Add WSGI support 1. Provide WSGI application script file. 2. Removing the cloudkitty-api command line. 3. Adding cloudkitty-api wsgi_scripts, by 'cloudkitty-api -p 8889' to run. Work Item: Make the devstack setup ck-api with wsgi 1. Switch devstack jobs to deploy control-plane API services in WSGI with Apache. 2. Default to deploy with Apache by global ENABLE_HTTPD_MOD_WSGI_SERVICES, in local.conf expose CLOUDKITTY_USE_MOD_WSGI=False to run without Apache. Work Item: Update the docs about installation 1. Installing the cloudkitty-api behind mod_wsgi. 2. Updating the installation about the cloudkitty-api. Implements: blueprint wsgi-support Change-Id: I207587c5360bb80c0e856cd0239e4073578951aa

CloudKitty
Rating as a Service component
Goal
CloudKitty aims at filling the gap between metrics collection systems like ceilometer and a billing system.
Every metrics are collected, aggregated and processed through different rating modules. You can then query CloudKitty's storage to retrieve processed data and easily generate reports.
Most parts of CloudKitty are modular so you can easily extend the base code to address your particular use case.
You can find more information on its architecture in the documentation, architecture section.
Status
CloudKitty has been successfully deployed in production on different OpenStack systems.
You can find the latest documentation on readthedocs.
Contributing
We are welcoming new contributors, if you've got new ideas, suggestions or want to contribute contact us.
You can reach us thought IRC (#cloudkitty @freenode.net), or on the official OpenStack mailing list openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org.
A launchpad is available if you need to report bugs.
Additional components
We're providing an OpenStack dashboard (Horizon) integration, you can find the files in the cloudkitty-dashboard repository.
A CLI is available too in the python-cloudkittyclient repository.
Trying it
CloudKitty can be deployed with devstack, more information can be found in the devstack section of the documentation.
Deploying it in production
CloudKitty can be deployed in production on OpenStack Kilo environments, for more information check the installation section of the documentation. Due to oslo libraires new namespace backward compatibility is not possible. If you want to install it on an older system, use a virtualenv.
