OpenStack provides infrastructure as a service capabilities, allowing companies to provision and manage virtual machines, load balancers, shared-, block- and object- storage, managed databases and more. Kubernetes, on the other hand, offers container orchestration, allowing companies to deploy and manage containerized applications seamlessly with the state of the art technology.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OpenStack&#8217;s flexibility enables easy scaling of cloud resources and adding new hardware based on demand. While Kubernetes scales applications automatically, making it easier to handle varying and mixed workloads.<\/span><\/p><p><b><br \/>Resource Optimization<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through the integration of Kubernetes into OpenStack, resources can be automatically scaled to meet the demands of applications. OpenStack helps optimize resource utilization by allowing companies to consolidate their infrastructure, reducing the need for physical servers and minimizing wasted resources. Kubernetes efficiently utilizes resources by packing containers onto the nodes based on their requirements, improving overall resource utilization and reducing costs. It is like double bin-packing for maximum efficiency.<\/span><\/p><p><b><br \/>Cost Savings<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OpenStack enables companies to avoid vendor lock-in and reduce costs associated with proprietary solutions such as VMware. Especially at the times of massive acquisitions bringing a lot of uncertainties (VMware has been recently acquired by Broadcom for a whopping 69$ billion dollars).<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Kubernetes helps optimize resource usage, reducing the need for overprovisioning.

It has so many services, then each of those services has many different components and each one of those components can be configured and connected in many different ways.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another scenario we are about to describe is to run Openstack on top of a single Kubernetes cluster in containers. Such an approach represents an advantage making running OpenStack easier and more manageable, simplifying its maintenance in the future and making use of the self-healing and scaling capabilities of Kubernetes.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this approach, each OpenStack service is containerized and deployed into Kubernetes running on baremetal. Ceph &#8211; a common choice for storage can also be deployed into Kubernetes with the help of k8s operators such as Rook (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/rook.io\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/rook.io\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) making maintenance and management of another complex project easier.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deploying OpenStack in containers managed by Kubernetes does not sound like an easy task on its own, but luckily there are a few projects that help doing exactly this: openstack-helm (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/openstack\/openstack-helm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/github.com\/openstack\/openstack-helm<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), YAOOK (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/yaook.cloud\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/yaook.cloud\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) and StarlingX (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.starlingx.io\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.starlingx.io\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The benefits of this approach of OpenStack on Kubernetes are becoming more and more obvious as the cloud grows in size. Updating and maintaining a large scale Openstack deployment with hundreds of hypervisors is something that you want to do in a fully-automated and safe way.

A deep expertise in both Kubernetes and Openstack is a must!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The synergy between these two technologies offers the ultimate way of leveraging resources in the cloud and managing them with high efficiency. However, it is important to evaluate your specific use case, scale and team expertise before opting for this layered private cloud setup.
