This is really a tutorial on how to use OpenStack on OpenMetal. I’d appreciate a tutorial of freeCodeCamp quality on everything from the bare metal hardware up to setting up OpenStack entirely on your own physical hardware. I don’t want to just switch from AWS or Azure to OpenMetal. Some of us are trying to be our own OpenMetal…

[ayoubbensakhria]

We really need like this open source technology to get rid of tech giants dependency. Especially those whose deal with sensitive data

I was at a BIG name company in their data center recently. I was sat in their NOC. I was allowed to watch engineers use Openstack to administer their various cloud platforms. I stated how impressed I was that they knew Openstack. Their response was they dont setup or maintain Openstack they just use it. Another team sets it up. At this point in time I will choose to learn how to use it to accomplish tasks in an heterogeneous environment. I will get an account with OpenMetal and try to learn possibly how to use Openstack. Some mechanics repair Mercedes cars while other folks drive them, which are you? Do I want to drive it or repair it? I repair servers for Data Analytic staff. They make twice as much money "driving" the app as I do fixing it.

Hello sir,
Thanks for your videos it really helps students like me who can't afford expensive courses . One question can you please bring a full length Openshift cource.

[johnboikov]

Can some billionaire give this guy a million dollars please?

[bashardlaleh]

this is a piece of cake for anyone who already knows AWS or Azure basics

[moviestudioland]

Excellent course. Good presentation and examples. Excellent narration and illustration. IF this was classical music it would be a MASTER CLASS. Well worth watching.

[yusranad]

It's based on kolla-ansible for deploying the openstack. Great video man!

[Japan-vqqm]

Thank you so much Sensei! You are a blessing!

[emelyjavier]

Respect to your good work, thanks a lot

[thisisreallyme]

Awesome, more please! SUGGESTION: Around 22:06 for a descriptive name you give it... "Router". This is just a nit but in 6 months you (or someone else...) don't want to have to poke around settings to figure out what you intended. Name it with the same care you would use for variables.

[TheRonpe]

Interesting. I'm actually planning to build a server computer and this could be good fit for my needs.

Hello guys, I was not paying attention and during the installation of Windows 10, instead of formatting the C drive, I deleted it, and now I don't know what to do, please help me.

[SandyLearner]

Waiting for such unique root level Cloud Tuts.
Similarly Can you make Course on RHCE-8 Ansible / Ansible for DevOps and latest Docker DCA Course

[khalidelgazzar]

Thanks
Will need a 2nd video on how to do a standalone open stack installation

[marketmaker]

Please make a course on setting up openstack nova.

[RoastLambShanks]

Yes, but what is a "block" and what is an "object" in the context of OpenStack, what exactly do you mean?

[arunsaivemula]

Sir you are amazing, can you make a tutorial on Android AOSP internals.
