<title>Specialized cases</title>
|
|
<para>Although most OpenStack architecture designs fall into one
|
|
of the seven major scenarios outlined in other sections
|
|
(compute focused, network focused, storage focused, general
|
|
purpose, multi-site, hybrid cloud, and massively scalable),
|
|
there are a few use cases that do not fit into these categories.
|
|
This section discusses these specialized cases and provide
|
|
some additional details and design considerations
|
|
for each use case:</para>
