Preface
Abstract
The OpenStack system consists of several key services that are separately installed. These services work together depending on your cloud needs and include the Compute, Identity, Networking, Image, Block Storage, Object Storage, Telemetry, Orchestration, and Database services. You can install any of these projects separately and configure them stand-alone or as connected entities.
Explanations of configuration options and sample configuration files are included.
Note
The Training Labs scripts provide an automated way of deploying the cluster described in this Installation Guide into VirtualBox or KVM VMs. You will need a desktop computer or a laptop with at least 8 GB memory and 20 GB free storage running Linux, MacOS, or Windows. Please see the OpenStack Training Labs.
This guide documents the installation of OpenStack starting with the Pike release. It covers multiple releases.
