ELI5: What is OpenStack? How to get started?

3 years ago by PropaGandalf to c/ELI5

Well to be precise?

  • How does one install it?
  • What is the difference between a hypervisor/openstack/a container service (podman,docker)?
  • Should I go with Proxmox/Debian/some other distro?
  • I already installed Flatcar Linux, is this also suitable?

Openstack is literally your own local cloud hosting platform. Like a self hosted rackspace or digital ocean.

Unless you have tens of machines it’s massive overkill.
