Foxnut Overview

Foxnut is a service to manage infrastructure under OpenStack, which including datacenter, rack, network devices, servers, interfaces, disks, etc. devices, Foxnut provides an OpenStack-native REST API and will contain comand line tool and web-based visualization interface.

Why Foxnut, Why us

As a cloud infrastructure software, OpenStack has hidden the complexity of hardwares for end users. But to cloud operators, they have to face different hardwares under OpenStack, such as: racks, servers, interfaces, fibers, etc.

As a DevOps team of OpenStack service provider, we have deliverd more than one hundred OpenStack clusters for users, the preparatory work is repeated and complicated, it takes lots of time on checking the correctness of links and location of servers, when complexity grow exponentially with the grow of clusters scale and availability.

Foxnut is aim to manage these hardware efficiently, it's designed to collect hardware information and organize them in visualization, operators can choose different OpenStack architecture and foxnut will generate automatically rack view and networking connections view. It also will display hardwares status in real-time. With foxnut's help, operators could install servers into a rack and cable the server quickly and easily.
