Applied OpenStack Design Patterns

Abstract

Once the component knowledge and proven architecture design patterns have been set, we will deep dive into OpenStack underneath the behavior to map native infrastructure and application with OpenStack architecture. With this core understanding, we will move toward the component design implementation for native applications on OpenStack to start as a small protocol model. Once the model has been set, users can start to utilize different component implementations of OpenStack with their native application structure. Later in this book, we will define the multi-node compute resource management and clustering solutions to define the High Availability (HA) with OpenStack. In the later stages of the book, we will focus on resource management and scheduling in OpenStack to map users’ requests and allocation. The readers will gain the insight of a resource manager algorithm and native VM provisioning with respect to application components and configuration. In this part, users will learn the common VM provisioning related best practices mapping with respect to resource and capacity management of OpenStack infrastructure.
