We need separation between services to mitigate for library conflicts. This way instead of doing “openstack upgrade” we can do “nova upgrade” today, “neutron upgrade” tomorrow and on, and that approach simplifies things tremendously, because potential fallback is both easy and fast, and impact is much lower.
Biggest problems in upgradeable deployments are dependencies and speed of upgrade. Dependencies means, in case of shared libraries, several services might require same library, but often at different versions between major openstack releases. This will cause conflicts, and require us to do “all or nothing” upgrade. Sometimes we would like to use several maintenance windows to upgrade our deployment one service at the time. Also, we want this maintenance windows to be as short as possible, hence speed of deployment changes.

features that have been implemented and bugs fixed. This will lead to different versions of Services running together my deployment. Different Services will be using different versions of system and 3rd party libraries.
didn’t? We want to utilize containers flexibility, speed of deployment, and most importantly, separation of services. With each service having its own library base, we don’t have conflicts, and we can upgrade just one service at the time without disruption of others.
