Hello Sharma,

I haven't implemented a new service in openstack-ansible quite yet, but
I'll give you some tips.

First, you'll need to use the extra_container.yml.example[1] to make a
new container.

Next, you'll want to create a role that will configure the operating
system and the required services within the container. You can review
the roles within the openstack-ansible repository to see what is
typically configured in each one.  The keystone role[2] might be a good
place to start.

>From there, you'll need to test the container build-out and
configuration to make sure the service works well with the other
services (like authentication with keystone).
