Architecture Examples
To understand the possibilities that OpenStack offers, it's best to start with basic architecture that has been tested in production environments. We offer two examples with basic pivots on the base operating system (Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux) and the networking architecture. There are other differences between these two examples and this guide provides reasons for each choice made.
Because OpenStack is highly configurable, with many different back ends and network configuration options, it is difficult to write documentation that covers all possible OpenStack deployments. Therefore, this guide defines examples of architecture to simplify the task of documenting, as well as to provide the scope for this guide. Both of the offered architecture examples are currently running in production and serving users.
Tip
As always, refer to the common/glossary if you are unclear about any of the
terminology mentioned in architecture examples.
