**This guide is no longer maintained by the OpenStack documentation
team. If you wish to update this guide, propose a patch at your
own leisure.**
This guide was last updated as of the Pike release, documenting
the OpenStack Ocata, Newton, and Mitaka releases. It may
not apply to EOL releases Kilo and Liberty.
We advise that you read this at your own discretion when planning
on your OpenStack cloud. This guide is intended as advice only.
Abstract
~~~~~~~~
The Architecture Design Guide provides information on planning and designing
an OpenStack cloud. It explains core concepts, cloud architecture design
requirements, and the design criteria of key components and services in an
OpenStack cloud. The guide also describes five common cloud use cases.
Before reading this book, we recommend:
* Prior knowledge of cloud architecture and principles.
* Linux and virtualization experience.
* A basic understanding of networking principles and protocols.
For information about deploying and operating OpenStack, see the
`Installation Guides <https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/install/>`_,
`Deployment Guides <https://docs.openstack.org/ocata/deploy/>`_,
and the `OpenStack Operations Guide <https://docs.openstack.org/operations-guide/>`_.
