The previous chapter was a great opportunity to launch a primary OpenStack private cloud in a production environment. Depending on your budget and the hardware solutions available that might better fit your infrastructure, you still have several ways as well as more than one possibility to bring in a fully implemented first draft design in a real production environment. What can be challenging at this stage? Without any doubt, managing networks in OpenStack is still a concern that we cannot ignore. Chapter 1, Designing OpenStack Cloud Architecture, detailed a few introductory networking concepts in OpenStack, whereas Chapter 7, OpenStack Multinode Deployment – Bringing in Production, exemplified a network implementation using Neutron by extending a previous design in the latter one.
