Extending TripleO for OpenStack Infrastructure Management

Extending TripleO for OpenStack Infrastructure Management features Red Hat's Keith Basil.

Operational awareness and value for cloud operators has largely been ignored by the OpenStack community. Today with the maturity of TripleO and inclusion of Tuskar, we can now begin to think about TripleO's use as a vehicle for OpenStack infrastructure management.

The question now is How do we extend TripleO with additional value?".

Within this context, there are several areas of integration which can be explored. These include an operator dashboard, infrastructure instrumentation agents, bare metal drivers and other supporting services. Hardware and software vendors can gain insight into what integration looks like from a product point of view.

In this session, we will explore:
- Why TripleO works for infrastructure management
- TripleO management integration points
- What TripleO means for hardware/software vendors
- Early work in this area
