OpenStack in 0 to 45 seconds - Engineering at the speed of light
summary
OpenMetal claims a one‑click OpenStack private cloud that finishes in 45 seconds — a live demo provisions a fully isolated cloud on three nodes with a dedicated control plane, Ceph storage, and bare‑metal provisioning via OpenStack Bifrost. Deployment uses Calla Ansible (Kolla-style playbooks) and supports Magnum, Octavia, Manila, etc.; nearly 800 clouds have been spun up in 18 months for testing and throwaway workloads, and a 72‑hour trial returns nodes to the pool automatically.
