Chapter 10. Adding Your Own Cloud to OneOps

In the previous chapter, you got familiar with custom components, packs, and platforms in OneOps. We also saw how to add custom monitoring to packs. This gave us a good idea of the structure of components and how to write and configure them. In this chapter, we will see how to add a brand new cloud to OneOps. At the time of writing this, OneOps officially supports OpenStack, Rackspace, Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, and Google Cloud with support for Alibaba Cloud recently added. However, there are many public and private clouds out there that are not currently supported. Sometimes, you want to deploy your infrastructure to a cloud that is not officially supported by OneOps. Other times your infrastructure may already exist on a cloud unsupported by OneOps. In cases like these, you need not migrate everything to a supported cloud. As you will see, adding a support for a cloud is easy and can be done with minimal effort.
