Day-3-Operations: New Region and New Services
summary
Public cloud expansion to a new Amsterdam region uses OpenStack with containerized control planes and TripleO, deploying ~2,000 devices (1,400 servers, 500 network boxes) to reach 6,500 compute nodes, ~500,000 vCPUs and >3 PB RAM; logistics require unpacking 12,000 SFPs unpacked and solving stacking and fiber-loss issues. Remote zero‑touch provisioning boots devices via Raspberry Pi + OpenVPN out-of-band console during COVID, ARM nodes run management, automation succeeds and the region comes online.
