Abstract
========
-In Folsom, OpenStack introduced an optional messaging system using ZeroMQ.
-For some deployments, especially for those super-large scenarios, it may be
-desirable to use a broker-less RPC mechanism to scale out.

-The original deployment guide only supports Nova in `folsom`_.

-Currently, ZeroMQ is one of the RPC backend drivers in oslo.messaging. In the
-Juno release, as almost all the core projects in OpenStack have switched to
-oslo_messaging, ZeroMQ can be the only RPC driver across the OpenStack cluster.
