How OpenStack is received in Japan ?

• We had our “OpenStack Summit” on Oct 2015
• LPI-Japan opened OPCEL(Certified Exam for OpenStack Professional)
• n OCT 2015
• IDC annalists announced that the OpenStack market in Japan

will grow 114

114% % per year.

Today I would like to share my experience on

What we did after installing OpenStack

OpenStack Summit in Austin 2016

Build your own Web Portal using OpenStack APIs and Services

• Todays abstract
• Since OpenStack has become widely popular in Japan,

we now need to explore how we can use OpenStack

• So In this session …
• Recap, on what OpenStack is.
• With demos, we will share our motivation for building a web portal based on OpenStack.

What is OpenStack ?

• OpenStack abstracts compute, network, and storage.

OpenStack converts the API into the actual Hardware API IaaS functions are provided by Openstack Applications only need to care about the OpenStack API

OpenStack Summit in Austin 2016

Why does it have to be OpenStack ?

• From the application point of view …
• Provides Out-of-the-Box frameworks for integrating Compute, Network, and Storage.

Every procedure of the IaaS Layer will not be needed to be expressed on the application.

• The application can be exported and imported to any OpenStack platform
• With no code change, we can access to proprietary hardware solutions

OpenStack is not just IaaS

The commonly used functions are defined as “Core Services” Optional Services belong to the “Big Tent”

If OpenStack is so great why not let it do everything ?

If OpenStack is so great why not let it do everything ?

Can OpenStack solve everything?

• Currently the answer is “no”
• Each OpenStack project have different maturity.
• Not everything is implemented in OpenStack

Why do we do testings ?

• To examine if there is no difference between “how it should look” and

“how it actually is”

How it Should look

How it actually is

Maintained by documents Operator executes Commands

Tests should also be automated
