Launch and manage stacks 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 . There are no administration-specific tasks that can be done through the dashboard. The basic creation and deletion of Orchestration stacks, refer to the End User Guide.
