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 is a client for the openstack designate api. there's a python api (the "designateclient" module), and a command-line script ("designate").
installing this package gets you a shell command, that you can use to interact with designate's api.
this package provides the documentation.
