I would like to introduce open-source Waldur platform - targeted for
openstack cloud operators and implementing service delivery pipeline
towards end customers. It uses modular approach and has the following
core features:
* integrated marketplace and self-service for the end users (REST API
and webapp)
* built-in accounting, integrations with backend billing systems and
payment gateways
* built-in customer support/servicedesk functionality and integrations
with backend servicedesk systems (Atlassian Servicedesk for example)
* built-in organisation membership and user management
* multi-cloud (ie multiple openstack API endpoints) support inside
customer project containers
This diagram provides overview about available modules and their
relations: https://waldur.com/assets/doc/waldur-diagram.pdf
Waldur openstack support is fairly mature - it has been successfully
used in production deployments since 2015. Its web-based self-service
for end users implements somewhat opiniated openstack tenant and
resource management - based on our real-world experience and some best
practices delivered from it. But also Horizon access provisioning and
out-of-band tenant changes sync are supported.
More details about Waldur platform and its openstack support can be
