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.

|
|
|
|
As always, refer to the :doc:`common/glossary` if you are unclear
|
|
about any of the terminology mentioned in architecture examples.
