3 Server Starter Cluster
All OpenStack Clouds start with a Private Cloud Core (PCC). A PCC is a hyper-converged set of 3 servers of your chosen hardware type.
The PCC is set up using Kolla-Ansible and Ceph-Ansible. You can extend and customize your cloud as you have root ownership of the cloud.
Of note, all PCCs can be used for both public cloud and private cloud workloads. This is the power of the OpenStack cloud platform.
PCCs provide HA control plane, HA block, HA object storage, and compute with all core OpenStack components plus more.

“OpenMetal Cloud provides on-demand private infrastructure, which brings cloud fundamentals like elasticity and usage billing to the cloud deployment itself. It’s awesome to see OpenMetal’s latest product use OpenStack to combine the benefits of public cloud and managed private cloud, powered by open infrastructure.”
Thierry Carrez, VP of Engineering
Open Infrastructure Foundation
Powered by OpenStack
OpenMetal is a Silver Member of the OpenInfra Foundation. The OpenMetal Cloud platform is powered by OpenStack, one of the most supported and industry-accepted open source technologies for cloud infrastructure and infrastructure as a service.
Fundamental Advantage of Using
OpenMetal
Your cloud uses private cloud resource management as it is fundamentally better for you.
Cost Tipping Points of
Public Cloud
As deployments grow, traditional public cloud becomes more and more expensive.
OpenStack Services Enabled at Deployment
OpenMetal is currently provisioning our stable OpenStack Yoga and Ceph Quincy combination.
For more information, see our OpenStack Operators Manual. The following services are available in all releases.
Compute
KVM-based virtual machines can be created, scaled, and destroyed as normal through Horizon or via API calls.
Block Storage
PCCs come with HA triplicate Ceph-based block storage. LVM is supported by additional cluster members.
Object Storage
PCCs have HA Ceph-based object storage by default. Erasure coding is supported on storage clusters.
Network as a Service
Private VLANs for each cloud-enable complete Neutron functionality. Projects, VPN-as-a-Service, etc.
Identity
Keystone is available as normal to leverage for your secure authentication system.
VM Images
A catalog of VM images is already available to spin up servers easily. Create your own as needed.
Magnum
Magnum is available by default and validated for Kubernetes. Guides and support are available.
Cloud Dashboard
The standard dashboard. We do encourage CLI or API usage as the GUI supports a subset of the functionality.
Orchestration
Heat provides both an OpenStack-native REST API and a CloudFormation-compatible Query API.
Octavia
OpenStack Octavia enables enterprise-level load balancing.
Ceilometer
OpenStack Ceilometer organizes data from services.
Watcher
OpenStack Watcher handles resource balancing for cloud operators.

vCPU: is calculated from the physical thread count minus CPU needed by the operating system and cloud system then times 12.
vRAM: is calculated from the physical RAM available minus RAM needed by the operating system and cloud system then times 1.5.
Both vCPU and vRAM are industry-standard approaches used by public and private cloud systems. This can be adjusted for your managed private cloud if required.
Intel S4610 SATA SSD are data center grade industry leading drives.
- 96000 IOPS random read
- 51000 IOPS random writes
Intel P4610 NVMe SSD are data center grade industry leading drives.
- 638,000 IOPS random read
- 222,000 IOPS random writes
In a PCC your storage is highly available as the system keeps 3 copies of your data on 3 separate physical devices.
