Overview/Description
OpenStack uses core software components such as OpenStack Compute, OpenStack Image Service, and OpenStack Object Storage to provide an operating system and logical architecture for private and public clouds. This course covers configuration tasks for OpenStack Compute deployments and configuring reliable storage sources using Object Storage. The course looks at the installation and configuration of the OpenStack Dashboard, and how to use it in managing your cloud resources. It also describes the setup and configuration of network services including configuring the network node, using VLAN Manager, and managing tenant networks.
