Introduction

What is designate-worker
designate-worker is:
Designate provides DNSaaS services for OpenStack. It provides a multi-tenant REST API for domain & record management. It is Integrated with Keystone for authentication, and provides a framework in place to integrate with Nova and Neutron notifications (for auto-generated records). Designate supports PowerDNS and Bind9 out of the box.
This package provides the worker service. It is a service that manages state of the DNS servers Designate manages, and any other long-running or otherwise complicated piece of work. The worker reads configuration for DNS servers from the Designate database, which is populated via the pools.yaml file. These DNS server backends are loaded into the worker so it understands how to create, update, and delete zones and recordsets on each DNS server. The Worker is fully aware of DNS Server ‘Pools’, so a single worker process can manage many pools of DNS servers.
