Kolla Overview
==============
The Kolla project is a member of the OpenStack `Big Tent
Governance <http://governance.openstack.org/reference/projects/index.html>`__.
Kolla's mission statement is:
::
Kolla provides production-ready containers and deployment tools for
operating OpenStack clouds.
Kolla provides `Docker <http://docker.com/>`__ containers and
`Ansible <http://ansible.com/>`__ playbooks to meet Kolla's mission.
Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete
customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy
OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack
configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
Getting Started
===============
The learn about Kolla, you can find the documentation online on
`docs.openstack.org <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/kolla/>`__.
You can get started by reading the `Developer

Kolla provides images to deploy the following OpenStack projects:
- `Aodh <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/aodh/>`__
- `Ceilometer <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/>`__
- `Cinder <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/cinder/>`__
- `Designate <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/designate/>`__
- `Glance <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/glance/>`__

- `Zaqar <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/zaqar/>`__
As well as these infrastructure components:
- `Ceph <http://ceph.com/>`__ implementation for Cinder, Glance and Nova
- `Openvswitch <http://openvswitch.org/>`__ and Linuxbridge backends for Neutron
- `MongoDB <https://www.mongodb.org/>`__ as a database backend for Ceilometer
and Gnocchi
- `RabbitMQ <https://www.rabbitmq.com/>`__ as a messaging backend for
communication between services.
- `HAProxy <http://www.haproxy.org/>`__ and
`Keepalived <http://www.keepalived.org/>`__ for high availability of services
and their endpoints.
- `MariaDB and Galera <https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/galera-cluster/>`__ for
highly available MySQL databases
Docker Images
=============
The `Docker images <https://docs.docker.com/userguide/dockerimages/>`__
are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for
contributing to the images can be found in the `image building
guide <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/kolla/image-building.html>`__.
The Kolla developers build images in the `kollaglue` namespace for every tagged
release and implement Ansible deployment for them.
You can view the available images on `Docker Hub
<https://hub.docker.com/u/kollaglue/>`__ or with the Docker CLI::
$ sudo docker search kollaglue
