Any insight/resources/examples/suggestions of how to design applications to take advantage of the openstack platform?
We are preparing to build a new cloud application and are evaluating platforms. I am trying to find information on how to best use openstack when building an application. Most of the information I have found describes openstack itself, but I have had a hard time seeing exactly how some of the components of openstack are used by a cloud application. Any information that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
What is OpenStack and how it fits together visually: http://clean-clouds.com/2013/03/14/overview-of-openstack-private-cloud-opensource-infrastructure-as-a-service/ Jump to page 36 relating to your need right now: http://docs.openstack.org/folsom/openstack-ops/openstack-ops-manual-folsom.pdf
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for. I had read a few of the administration and installation manuals, but hadn't seen the operations one. I will give it a more complete read tomorrow and follow up with any additional questions.
