Open Stack

Hi,

I work for a Medical research company and we are currently using HPC to provide services to our user community, we realized that HPC is too strict and we need to provide a more flexible platform to our users so they can run the type of applications they need. My idea is to divide my cluster into 2 areas. 1 area for Mesos running bare-metal applications on production (physical isolated from the users) plus openstack controllers and the second area would be managed by Openstack projects (nova, Sahara, etc) so our user community can do their developments there. I know VMs/Containers provides some kind of isolation but we work with critical data and a security is a must for us so I prefer not to give the users physical access to the nodes running production staff. Also I think Mesos would give better performance compared to kubernetes as it can run application on bare-metal.

I would like to get some feedback from the community regarding my idea, what other people are doing.

Also, I would like to read documentation regarding how to deploy Openstack on Mesos (so far I have not been able to find anything with enough details).

Thank you very much
