Open Stack

@Ryan even more so you could actually integrate even Quantum and Designate
without using any of the other pieces in OpenStack at all.

Some use cases can be:
* IPAM / networking ish solution built totally on Quantum and Designate to
provision a diverse set of network functionality without ever using the
rest of OpenStack.
* DNS for tools like Foreman, Crowbar or others instead of deploying
"agents" .
* DNS for other things like hosting providers, enterprises and what not.

Just to note my random thoughts.
