============================================
Launch and manage stacks using the Dashboard
============================================
The Orchestration service provides a template-based orchestration
engine for the OpenStack cloud, which can be used to create and manage
cloud infrastructure resources such as storage, networking, instances,
and applications as a repeatable running environment.
Templates are used to create stacks, which are collections of resources.
For example, a stack might include instances, floating IPs, volumes,
security groups, or users. The Orchestration service offers access to
all OpenStack core services via a single modular template, with
additional orchestration capabilities such as auto-scaling and basic
high availability.
For information about:
* administrative tasks on the command line, see
:doc:`cli_admin_manage_stacks`.
.. note::
There are no administration-specific tasks that can be done through
the dashboard.
* the basic creation and deletion of Orchestration stacks, refer to
the `OpenStack End User Guide
<http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/dashboard_stacks.html>`__.
