[![Snap Status][snap-build-badge]][snap-build-status]
MicroStack is a single-machine, snap-deployed OpenStack cloud.
## The most straightforward OpenStack
Common purposes include:
Pure upstream, lightweight OpenStack that can be installed and maintained with
a minimal effort.
* Development and testing of OpenStack workloads
* Continuous integration (CI)
* IoT and appliances
* Edge clouds (experimental)
* Introducing new users to OpenStack
Perfect for:
* Edge infrastructure implementation
* Small-scale private cloud deployments
* Testing, development and CI/CD
Currently provided OpenStack services are: Nova, Keystone, Glance, Horizon, and
Neutron.
## Why MicroStack?
MicroStack is frequently updated to provide the latest stable updates of the
most recent OpenStack release.
* **Straightforward** - Get fully-functional OpenStack up and running on your
workstation in just 2 commands and ~20 minutes.
* **"On rails"** - OpenStack has tens of components and options. MicroStack
eliminates this complexity by providing an opinionated approach to OpenStack
installation and operations.
* **Lightweight** - MicroStack comes with minimal footprint which makes it
ideal for devices with limited hardware resources, such as edge appliances.
* **Current** - MicroStack is frequenty updated to provide the latest stable
updates of the most recent OpenStack versions.
* **Comprehensive** - MicroStack contains all core OpenStack services,
including Keystone, Horizon, Glance, Nova, Neutron and Cinder, and the most
popular compute, network and storage options with KVM, OVN and LVM.
