Kolla Overview

The Kolla project is a member of the OpenStack Big Tent Governance. Kolla's mission statement is:

Kolla provides production-ready containers and deployment tools for
operating OpenStack clouds.

Kolla provides Docker containers and Ansible 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.

You can get started by reading the Developer Quickstart.

Docker Images

The Docker images are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for contributing to the images can be found in the image building guide. Images reside in the Docker Hub Kollaglue repo.

The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for the following services for every tagged release and implement Ansible deployment for them:

  • Ceilometer
  • Cinder
  • Glance
  • Haproxy
  • Heat
  • Horizon
  • Keepalived
  • Keystone
  • Mariadb + galera
  • Mongodb
  • Neutron (linuxbridge or neutron)
  • Nova
  • Openvswitch
  • Rabbitmq
$ sudo docker search kollaglue

A list of the upstream built docker images will be shown.
