Exploit the power of dynamic cloud formation and auto-scaling features to fully implement OpenStack orchestration About This Book Set up, manage, and troubleshoot Heat and effectively automate your datacenter and cloud-based services Achieve high availability, minimize down-time, and automate the deployment of cloud-based services and resources with minimum effort Upgrade your skills and manipulate resources on virtual machines in an unattended fashion using Heat Who This Book Is For If you are a System Engineer, System Administrator, Cloud Administrator, or a Cloud Engineer, then this book is for you. You should have a background of working in a Linux-based setup. Any knowledge of OpenStack-based cloud infrastructure will help you create wonders using this book. What You Will Learn Install an orchestration service for a private cloud environment Tackle errors that show up during the installation and configuration of heat Configure a template for orchestration using the native HOT format Configure a template for orchestration using the AWS cloud formation format Deploy a stack using the HOT template Deploy a test stack using the AWS CloudFormation template Automate and orchestrate cloud-based services with OpenStack Heat In Detail This book is focused on setting up and using one of the most important services in OpenStack orchestration, Heat. First, the book introduces you to the orchestration service for OpenStack to help you understand the uses of the templating mechanism, complex control groups of cloud resources, and huge-potential and multiple-use cases. We then move on to the topology and orchestration specification for cloud applications and standards, before introducing the most popular IaaS cloud framework, Heat. You will get to grips with the standards used in Heat, overview and roadmap, architecture and CLI, heat API, heat engine, CloudWatch API, scaling principles, JeOS and installation and configuration of Heat. We wrap up by giving you some insights into troubleshooting for OpenStack. With easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and supporting images, you will be able to manage OpenStack operations by implementing the orchestration services of Heat. Style and approach The book is a step-by-step guide to implementing an orchestration (cloud formation) service for OpenStack-based cloud environments. This book uses real-world scenarios and examples to demonstrate the procedures in an easy-to-understand language with plenty of screenshots to help you get a better understanding.

Book Description
Harness the power of OpenStack Networking for public and private clouds using 90 hands-on recipes About This Book Build and manage virtual switching, routing, and firewall-based networks in OpenStack using Neutron Develop plugins and drivers for Neutron to enhance the built-in networking capabilities Monitor and automate OpenStack networks using tools like Ceilometer and Heat Who This Book Is For This book is aimed at network and system administrators who want to deploy and manage OpenStack-based cloud and IT infrastructure. If you have basic knowledge of OpenStack and virtualization, this book will help you leverage the rich functionality of OpenStack Networking in your cloud deployments. What You Will Learn Operate OpenStack Networking for public and private clouds Configure advanced routing services for your workloads Secure data traffic using firewall-as-a-service capabilities of OpenStack Discover how to leverage VXLAN to implement SDN in your OpenStack cloud Monitor the virtual networks using Ceilometer Develop plugins to enhance and customize OpenStack Networking Provide HA and VPN connectivity for your virtual machines Troubleshoot and solve common problems with OpenStack Networking In Detail Networking in OpenStack has evolved from Nova Network to Neutron. This has resulted in a rich suite of networking services available to OpenStack users and administrators. Advanced services such as routers, firewall, and load balancers use building blocks such as network and subnets. Recent improvements support powerful customization using plugins. The evolution of Neutron continues as it integrates with tools like Ceilometer and Heat. This book will explore the built-in capabilities of Neutron to effectively deploy cloud solutions. You will begin with the most fundamental constructs of OpenStack Networking for switching and routing. You will then learn how to provide your tenants with services like firewalls and load-balancers. The step-by-step recipes will help you configure and troubleshoot networking problems in your cloud. This book will also introduce you to advanced topics like Ceilometer, Heat, and other upcoming tools in OpenStack Style and approach The book is full of step-by-step recipes to configure and manage the networking aspects of your OpenStack cloud. In addition to covering basic configuration involved in OpenStack Networking, the books also shares various troubleshooting tips and techniques. As much as possible the book uses OpenStack dashboard (Horizon) to help the user get a feel of real OpenStack Networking
