Steven Dake a87980e5c2 Remove EXPOSE options from Dockerfiles
The EXPOSE options will create a local docker-proxy.  This is
unnecessary with --net=host mode.  The docker-proxy adds about
20 microseconds of latency.  Add documentation to the specification
to indicate where to find the ports that are exposed by the
services in case someone were to desire to add EXPOSE back to
the Dockerfiles.

Kolla Overview

The Kolla project is part of the OpenStack TripleO effort, focused on deploying OpenStack services using Docker containers. The initial system spec provides additional details of Kolla and the use cases it addresses.

Getting Started

Deployment on bare metal is a complex topic which is beyond the scope of the project at this time. An environment to simplify the deployment of a single or multi-node Kolla cluster is required for development purposes. As a result, a Heat template has been created for deploying a Kolla cluster to an existing OpenStack cloud.

Docker Images

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

The Kolla developers build images in the kollaglue namespace for the following services:

  • Glance
  • Heat
  • Keystone
  • Mariadb
  • Nova
  • Rabbitmq
  • Neutron
  • Mongodb
  • Ceilometer
  • Zaqar
  • Horizon
$ sudo docker search kollaglue

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

Directories

  • docker - contains artifacts for use with docker build to build appropriate images
  • compose - contains the docker-compose files defining the container sets
  • tools - contains different tools for interacting with Kolla
  • devenv - A collection of tools and resources for managing a Kolla development environment.
