Overview of this book

OpenStack Open Source software is one of the most used cloud infrastructures to support software development and big data analysis. It is developed by a thriving community of individual developers from around the globe and backed by most of the leading players in the cloud space today. It is simple to implement, massively scalable, and can store a large pool of data and networking resources. OpenStack has a strong ecosystem that helps you provision your cloud storage needs. Add OpenStack's enterprise features to reduce the cost of your business. This book will show you the steps to build up a private cloud environment. At the beginning, you'll discover the uses of cloud services such as the identity service, image service, and compute service. You'll dive into Neutron, the OpenStack Networking service, and get your hands dirty with configuring ML2, networks, routers, and Distributed Virtual Routers. You’ll then gather more expert knowledge on OpenStack cloud computing by managing your cloud's security and migration. After that, we delve in to OpenStack Object storage and how to manage servers and work with objects, cluster, and storage functionalities. Also, as you go deeper into the realm of OpenStack, you'll learn practical examples of Block storage, LBaaS, and FWaaS: installation and configuration covered ground up. Finally, you will learn OpenStack dashboard, Ansible and Foreman, Keystone, and other interesting topics.

Installing OpenStack Image Service


Installation of the latest OpenStack Image Service is simply achieved by using the packages provided from the Ubuntu Cloud Archive repositories, which have been packaged for our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS GNU/Linux installation.

Getting ready

To begin with, ensure you're logged in to our OpenStack Controller host where OpenStack Image Service will be installed.

To log in to our OpenStack Controller host that was created using Vagrant, issue the following command:

vagrant ssh controller

Ensure that our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS release is using the Ubuntu Cloud Archive that has the packages required for the Juno release. For more information, visit http://bit.ly/OpenStackCookbookCloudArchive.

Tip

All of the steps can be found at http://www.openstackcookbook.com/.

We will configure Glance to use MariaDB as the database backend, so this needs to be installed prior to installing Glance.

Tip

If MariaDB is not installed, visit http://bit.ly/OpenStackCookbookInstallMariaDB for instructions...
