Heat/on-public-clouds

This wiki page is to plan the changes we need to support running Heat againt public clouds like HPCloud and Rackspace Cloud.

If you are interested in helping make this happen put your name below to help organize efforts.

Public Cloud Restrictions

Please update if these are incorrect.

Rackspace and HPCloud
  • No self service VM image uploads. Must use either provided VM images or boot snapshots.
  • Keystone is slightly special in each case. Rackspace has different auth and HPCloud returns extra data.
Rackspace
  • No cloud-init in the base images and no running metadata server.

Features that may help

  • Ability to boot snapshots.
  • Keystone middleware for Rackspace and HPCloud.
