Although OpenStack architecture designs have been described
|
|
in seven major scenarios outlined in other sections
|
|
(compute focused, network focused, storage focused, general
|
|
purpose, multi-site, hybrid cloud, and massively scalable),
|
|
there are a few use cases that do not fit into these categories.
|
|
This section discusses these specialized cases and provide some
|
|
additional details and design considerations for each use case:
|
|
|
|
* :doc:`Specialized networking <specialized-networking>`:
|
|
describes running networking-oriented software that may involve reading
|
|
packets directly from the wire or participating in routing protocols.
|
|
* :doc:`Software-defined networking (SDN)
|
|
<specialized-software-defined-networking>`:
|
|
describes both running an SDN controller from within OpenStack
|
|
as well as participating in a software-defined network.
|
|
* :doc:`Desktop-as-a-Service <specialized-desktop-as-a-service>`:
|
|
describes running a virtualized desktop environment in a cloud
|
|
(:term:`Desktop-as-a-Service`).
|
|
This applies to private and public clouds.
|
|
* :doc:`OpenStack on OpenStack <specialized-openstack-on-openstack>`:
|
|
describes building a multi-tiered cloud by running OpenStack
|
|
on top of an OpenStack installation.
|
|
* :doc:`Specialized hardware <specialized-hardware>`:
|
|
describes the use of specialized hardware devices from within
|
|
the OpenStack environment.
