Development Environments

Need a place to start learning OpenStack, or your own personal OpenStack development environment?

Reference Architectures

Think of these as curated playlists of OpenStack configurations. These Reference Architectures are based on real-world workloads. The Reference Architecture document will give you a good idea of which core and optional projects might be used by the workload. In addition, each Reference Architecture includes sample Heat and or Murano packages which will allow you to reproduce the workload in your own environment.

APIs

CLIs

  • A command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based client that helps you create scripts to interact with OpenStack clouds.
  • There's the common ``openstack-client`` client that covers most projects, see OpenStackClient documentation.
  • Each OpenStack project has a related client project that includes Python API bindings and a command-line interface (CLI). For details on these projects, see API Bindings.
