Kayobe

Kayobe enables deployment of containerised OpenStack to bare metal.

Containers offer a compelling solution for isolating OpenStack services, but running the control plane on an orchestrator such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm adds significant complexity and operational overheads.

The hosts in an OpenStack control plane must somehow be provisioned, but deploying a secondary OpenStack cloud to do this seems like overkill.

Kayobe stands on the shoulders of giants:

OpenStack bifrost discovers and provisions the cloud
OpenStack kolla builds container images for OpenStack services
OpenStack kolla-ansible delivers painless deployment and upgrade of containerised OpenStack services

To this solid base, kayobe adds:

Configuration of cloud host OS & flexible networking
Management of physical network devices
A friendly openstack-like CLI

All this and more, automated from top to bottom using Ansible.
