Openstack deployment on a single node server
Hi, I am a newbie to OpenStack deployment, we are looking for a deployment strategy for OpenStack to test all our cloud-based apps to save on testing expenses. I tried it with microstack where I faced some issues related to Available Zones which was always empty. So, is it possible to use only one node to deploy and use complete OpenStack or do we need to follow some different strategy. I am having one server machine on which I want to deploy the complete cloud solutions. Kindly provide me with the necessary insights. I really appreciate any help you can provide.

In the upstream OpenStack community CI/CD jobs, we test OpenStack API interactions, integration and new features with a test-oriented minimal deployment tool called DevStack. Most of our DevStack-based installs happen inside single virtual machines with 8GB RAM, 80GB of disk space and 4 or 8 vCPUs (depending on how fast they are). I don't know whether it meets your requirements for a test platform, but you can check its documentation here to find out: https://docs.openstack.org/devstack/ Hope that helps! -- Jeremy Stanley

devstack is THE reference for developer OpenStack testing. If you are looking for a bit more production like setup, using kolla-ansible containers to run the OpenStack services, have a look at our Cloud-in-a-Box setup. https://docs.scs.community/docs/iaas/guides/other-guides/cloud-in-a-box/ HTH, -- Kurt Garloff<kurt@garloff.de>, Cologne
