A Universe from Nothing: Containerised OpenStack deployment using Kolla, Ansible and Kayobe
Hands-On Workshops

Come and experience hands-on what it looks like to deploy OpenStack the modern way, with a containerised control plane using Kolla, Kolla-Ansible and Kayobe.

Using a lab environment that simulates a deployment from bare metal, we will take you though what is involved in deploying and configuring:

  • A Kolla control plane, in which all the OpenStack services are containerised.
  • Deployed and configured for Kolla using Kolla-Ansible on servers prepared for the purpose.
  • Provisioned and configured for Kolla-Ansible using Kayobe, the Ansible-driven tool for managing bare metal control plane infrastructure using Bifrost.

We will demonstrate the advantages of a containerised control plane and the advantages of a modular and extensible deployment framework written in Ansible.


What can I expect to learn?

Using a lab environment that simulates a deployment from bare metal, we will take you though what is involved in deploying and configuring OpenStack in a manageable form in the most lightweight and comprehensible manner available.
