Summary

This chapter has revisited the basic components of OpenStack and exposed new features such as Telemetry, Orchestration, and File Share projects.

We continued refining our logical design for future deployment by completing a first design layout. As an introductory chapter, we have rekindled the flames on each OpenStack component by discussing briefly each use case and role in its ecosystem. We have also covered a few tactical tips to plan and mitigate the future growth of the OpenStack setup in a production environment.

As a main reference for the rest of the book, we will be breaking down each component and new functionality in OpenStack by extending the basic layout covered in this chapter.

We will continue the OpenStack journey to deploy what was planned in a robust and effective way: the DevOps style.
