Keystone offers different pluggable backends for service catalogs. One uses
``sql`` and the other is known as ``templated``. The ``templated`` backend
reads catalog entries from files written to disk and exposed to keystone via
configuration files. This method of catalog management is useful for
deployments where catalog data is relatively static.
The problem with this backend is that is it based on ini-style configuration
and everything is defined in a flat structure. Using YAML to define the service
catalog would make the file-based catalog easier to read and maintain. |
