This core architecture provides prescriptive guidance and recommendations, jointly engineered by Dell EMC and Red Hat, for deploying Dell EMC Ready Architecture for Red Hat OpenStack Platform version 16.1 with Dell EMC infrastructure.
The goals are to:
- Provide practical system design guidance and recommended configurations
- Develop tools to use with OpenStack for day-to-day usage and management
- Develop networking configurations capable of supporting your production system
The development of this architecture builds upon the experience and engineering skills of Dell EMC and Red Hat, and encapsulates best practices developed in numerous real-world deployments. The designs and configurations in this architecture have been tested in Dell EMC and Red Hat labs to verify system functionality and operational robustness.
The solution consists of the components shown in Figure 1: OVS Architecture and represents the base upon which all optional components and expansion of the Dell EMC Ready Architecture for Red Hat OpenStack Platform are built.
