Welcome to Solar's documentation!
=================================
Solar provides flexible orchestration and resource management framework for
deploying distributed systems. It leverages abstraction layer over commonly
used configuration management systems like puppet, ansible etc. to enable
complex, multi node orchestration.
Solar can be used as separate tool for quick prototyping deployment topology,
but as a framework it can be also integrated with existing tools used to
configure and deploy distributed systems including
OpenStack clouds. Solar also provides control over resulting changes by
introducing changes log and history for deployment entities. This enables more
control over lifecycle management of infrastructure.
Solar can deploy and manage any distributed system, focusing on OpenStack
ecosystem e.g. OpenStack itself, Ceph, etc. There are also other examples
like Riak.
