OpenShift on OpenStack Reference Architecture Deep Dive
Speaker: Jacob Liberman (Red Hat)
August 29 2019
OpenShift Commons Briefing

In this briefing, Jacob Liberman, author of the latest OpenShift on OpenStack Reference Architecture, walks thru the reference architecture for running OpenShift Container Platform 3.11 on Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13 and shares important design considerations and key integrations between the products. The architecture is highly available and suitable for production.

In this briefing, Red Hat's Ramon Acedo Rodriguez presents the strategy, vision and current state of affairs for containers within Red Hat OpenStack Platform. In this session you will learn what role containers play in OpenStack, what we as Red Hat are focusing on, what we already have brought to our customers and what you can be expecting in the future in infrastructure as well as tenant layers.

Containers provide a compelling alternative virtualization for modern application development. OpenShift running on OpenStack allows combining the exposition of resources in the infrastructure layer such as network, compute and storage, provided by OpenStack, with in the consumption of these resources from the platform side by OpenShift.

This week’s OpenShift on OpenStack’s guest speaker is Jeremy Eder from Red Hat’s Performance and Tuning team who will be discussing the findings from his work deploying both OpenStack and OpenShift on CNCF.io’s Cluster. He’ll also be discussing the test harness that used to do the scaling tests and the lessons learned.

Here’s a link to the blog he wrote, https://cncf.io/news/blogs/2016/08/deploying-1000-nodes-openshift-cncf-cluster-part-1

From the blog:
'Imagine being able to stand up thousands of tenants with thousands of apps, running thousands of Docker-formatted container images and routes, on a self-healing cluster. Take that one step further with all those images being updatable through a single upload to the registry, all without downtime. We did just that on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform running on Red Hat OpenStack on a 1000 node cluster.'

Judd Maltin of Dell has been working closely with Red Hatters’ Jan Provaznik and Sylvain Baubeau on making sure that OpenShift deploys and runs seamlessly on OpenStack and integrates with Keystone, Cinder, Heat, Neutron’s LBaaS and other OpenStack resource natively.
In this session, Judd will walk us thru a deployment on Dell’s reference architecture with 192 cores and whole lot of RAM, Ceph and/or Compellant and/or Equallogix storage backends.
