Kolla Overview
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
The Kolla project is a member of the OpenStack `Big Tent
|
|
Governance <http://governance.openstack.org/reference/projects/index.html>`__.
|
|
Kolla's mission statement is:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
Kolla provides production-ready containers and deployment tools for
|
|
operating OpenStack clouds.
|
|
|
|
Kolla provides `Docker <http://docker.com/>`__ containers and
|
|
`Ansible <http://ansible.com/>`__ playbooks to meet Kolla's mission.
|
|
Kolla is highly opinionated out of the box, but allows for complete
|
|
customization. This permits operators with little experience to deploy
|
|
OpenStack quickly and as experience grows modify the OpenStack
|
|
configuration to suit the operator's exact requirements.
|
|
|
|

Docker Images
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The `Docker images <https://docs.docker.com/userguide/dockerimages/>`__
|
|
are built by the Kolla project maintainers. A detailed process for
|
|
contributing to the images can be found in the `image building
|
|
guide <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/kolla/image-building.html>`__.
|
|
|
|
The Kolla developers build images in the `kolla` namespace for every tagged
|
|
release and implement an Ansible deployment for many but not all of them.
|
|
|
|
You can view the available images on `Docker Hub
|
|
<https://hub.docker.com/u/kolla/>`__ or with the Docker CLI::
|
|
|
|
$ sudo docker search kolla
|
|
|
|
