OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller,
|
|
|
|
supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies,
|
|
|
|
including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMWare, and more. In addition to
|
|
|
|
its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly
|
|
|
|
encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.

Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though
|
|
|
|
it requires and integrates with a number of native system
|
|
|
|
components for databases, messaging and virtualization
|
|
|
|
capabilities.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should
|
|
|
|
be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained
|
|
|
|
the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is
|
|
|
|
often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems.
|
|
|
|
In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
