- Intoduction
This wiki web page documents the possible implementation of the OpenStack cloud infrastructure in order to evaluate the possible deployment on campus.
A brief overview of OpenStack is displayed below.
MAAS (Metal As A Service) is the service from Ubuntu which provides easy installation of metal servers to the OpenStack cloud and provides the "Standard Hardware" layer pictured above. Once the metal servers are provisioned then "Juju" charms are used to install components of the OpenStack cloud which provides the "OpenStack Shared Services" layer pictured above. Finally cloud services ("Your Applications") are provided by the "OpenStack Dashboard" pictured above.

A live CD of the demo server can be downloaded from the following link:
