Hey Stig, That is neat! Based upon the discussion, I think we would want to orient towards general use from an end user perspective and less an admin cloud deployment perspective. It also helps in this case that a private hosted cloud provider is engaged and might be willing to donate some test tenants for the day, so people can do a lab from a laptop in a meetup venue while not needing a high end machine with lots of ram. But, we did have a couple deployment related questions, so it might be useful as well. Thanks! -Julia On Wed, Mar 13, 2024 at 3:55 PM Stig Telfer <stig.openstack@telfer.org> wrote:
Hello Julia -
It's possible our training lab can help: https://github.com/stackhpc/a-universe-from-nothing
It is a deployment of a seed node plus 1-controller 1-hypervisor cloud, all VMs nested within a lab VM. The README takes you through the process of deploying OpenStack using Kayobe and Kolla-Ansible. At the end you have a miniature cloud you can log in to and spawn even tinier VMs.
By itself it's a bit rough and ready, but some of my colleagues are planning a video walk-through. No date set for that currently.
Cheers, Stig

Hey folks,
Yesterday, I took part in the Los Angeles OpenInfra meetup, and a question that came up from some of the organizers was if there are any practical workshop labs we can walk folks through to sort of show some practical/concrete usage aspects of OpenStack?
Is anyone aware of any such materials?
I ask because we are talking of trying to organize the next meetup in more a workshop style, especially as some participants did also express interest in hands on learning.
Thanks in advance,
