Summary

In this chapter, we looked at an example of a basic OpenStack deployment using only the identity service Keystone for storing a catalog of services, and authentication and authorization, the Nova compute services for provisioning the LXC instance, the image service Glance, which stores the LXC container images, and the networking services with Neutron that created the bridge and assigned the IP address to our container.

A full production-ready deployment would consist of multiple controller nodes that run the aforementioned services, along with a pool of compute servers to provision the containers on.

OpenStack with LXC is a great way to create and manage multitenant cloud environments, running various software applications in a centralized and highly scalable way.
