Ian,

We did a 10 day eval of OSAD and liked the tech.  We did find the way the
deployment pipeline works to be lacking.  A purely theoretical problem
with the deployment pipeline is key repositories used to build the
software could be offline.  Since the building of the software occurs
during deployment, this could result in an inability to alter the
configuration of the deployment after OpenStack is deployed.  Kolla
suffers from this same problem during the installation (build pipeline)
step.  But as long as you have already built images somewhere in your
system, you are still able to deploy, avoiding complete downtime on
deployment that OSAD could theoretically suffer.

This theoretical issue makes the deployment non-repeatable.  Hope our 10
day eval analysis helps improve OSAD.

Regards
-steve
