Brief Summary:
Added Modules and Lab Sections of Aptira's Existing
OpenStack Training Docs. Please do refer Full Summary
for more details.
For those who want to review this and save some time on
building it, I have hosted the content on
http://office.aptira.in
Please talk to Sean Robetrs if you are concerened about
repetition of Doc Content or similar issues like short URLs
etc., this is supposed to be a rough patch and not final.
Full Summary:
Added the following modules.
1. Module001 - Introduction To OpenStack.
- Brief Overview of OpenStack.
- Basic Concepts
- Detailed Description of Core
Projects (Grizzly) under OpenStack.
- All But Networking and Swift.
2. Module002 - OpenStack Networking In detail.
3. Module003 - OpenStack Object Storage In detail.
4. Lab001 - OpenStack Control Node and Compute Node.
5. Lab002 - OpenStack Network Node.
Full Summary added due to the size of the commit. I Apologize
for the size of this commit and will try not to commit huge
content like in this patch. The reason for the size of this
commit is to meet OpenStack Training Sprint day.
