OpenStack
OpenStack consists of a number services for running IaaS clouds. This includes Object Store (Swift), Compute (Nova) and Image (Glance) services, among others.
The Diablo release of OpenStack was included Fedora 16. The Essex release is included in Fedora 17.
This page tracks Fedora Cloud SIG's effort to maintain OpenStack in Fedora. See our periodic status reports for an insight into what's been happening.
Getting Started
See Getting started with OpenStack Nova for details on how to try out the OpenStack packages on Fedora 16.
Preview repository
OpenStack has a preview repository, allowing Fedora N-1 users to try out OpenStack packages from the latest Fedora release. This is similar to the Virtualization Preview Repository.
Currently this targets Fedora 16.
Preview packages may be installed using yum after performing the following step:
$> cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ $> wget http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/apevec/openstack-preview/fedora-openstack-preview.repo

Images
Rather than recommending users to download pre-built Ubuntu images in Getting_started_with_OpenStack Nova, we should have a set of official Fedora images like Cloud_SIG/EC2_Images. These should be built using similar process to the EC2 images.
For now, we can suggest users build Fedora images using Oz.
To Package
- noVNC - a HTML5 VNC client
- openstack-reddwarf - database as a service (will be part of openstack-nova?
- crowbar - OpenStack deployment service and chef wrapper
On the shelf for now:
- openstack-burrow - message queue
- Burrow development seems to have halted a while back when the main dev stopped working on it
Ubuntu
Some of Ubuntu's stuff may be useful to compare against:
- Ubuntu OpenStack packaging wiki
- Ubuntu OpenStack packaging mailing list
- Ubuntu cloud images
- OpenStack Beginner's Guide on Ubuntu 11-10
