Container Infrastructure Management service overview

The Container Infrastructure Management service consists of the following components:

magnum command-line client

A CLI that communicates with the magnum-api to create and manage container clusters (i.e. bays in magnum terminology). End developers can directly use the magnum REST API.

magnum-api service

An OpenStack-native REST API that processes API requests by sending them to the magnum-conductor via AMQP.

magnum-conductor service

Runs on a controller machine and connects to heat to orchestrate a magnum bay. Additionally, it connects to a Docker Swarm, Kubernetes or Mesos REST API endpoint.
