Reddit query for openstack magnum for enterprise core component maker

Hi,
So we need to test our AI/ML frameworks using our chips on nodes. We have a
custom django rest api with frontend where our devs can request for a k8s
cluster so that they can run their workload inside a pod which accesses
chips on the hardware to perform AI/ML activities. We already have ironic
working for baremetal provisioning. More than GUI, we are interested in the
API part of magnum, whether all that is there in GUI is exposed as api via
openstack so that our restapi+frontend can offer it to our devs. We could
not find any installation material apart from what we have on openstack
guide itself (https://docs.openstack.org/magnum/latest/install/index.html),
We are currently running ussuri (I know it is EOL) but we plan to have
openstack-helm in few months from a vendor so that should solve the problem
but for now, at least to do POC, we were hoping to get this
installed+integrated with our regular openstack on baremetal. If any of you
have a better installation+integration guide for magnum, then it will be
greatly appreciated. devstack was a no go after many days, we could not
even get it going. So we want to bite the bullet and install magnum on
openstack itself.

Thanks and Regards,
