Ubuntu OpenStack Solution

QuickStack A Proven Highly Available Architecture with Faster Time-to-Value

QCT (Quanta Cloud Technology) introduces QuickStack, a converged cloud solution powered by The Canonical Distribution of Ubuntu OpenStack. QuickStack delivers the fastest and reliable way to build an OpenStack cloud with the veri ed and thoroughly tested architecture, which dramatically reduces the time and risk associated with your OpenStack cloud projects. With QuickStack, building an OpenStack cloud is no longer complicated, but instead fast and easy.

QuickStack is designed to provide high availability of not only all services in OpenStack but also physical structure in this reference architecture. t s tested through destruction veri cation and real-world production requirements. It ensures continuous access to business services and delivery of enterprise-grade SLAs. QuickStack is also based on Ubuntu, the most popular platform for OpenStack deployments, backed by commercial support and upstream OpenStack community.

Faster Time-to-ValueWith QuickStack, building an OpenStack cloud is no longer di cult to achieve. QCT has created optimi ed reference architecture while keeping the e ibility to deploy the cloud that better suits your business. Moreover, by leveraging Ubuntu OpenStack MAAS and Juju, hardware can be dynamically provisioned, so physical servers can be added or recycled with no disruption to the rest of the network; and Juju, because of its automated deployment and self-service capabilities, reduces the time to provision business services. ou can literally go from bare metal to a well-con gured OpenStack cloud in minutes and manage racks of servers as a single resource, which allows you to increase data center e ciency and lower operating cost.

QuickStack can scale resources up or down as needed by adding hardware, creating a new availability one or reallocating e isting resources. It allows you to start small and linearly scale up compute and storage resources without infrastructure re-engineering. Its scalability comes from its modular design on services. ach compute or compute-storage node serves as the e pansion unit to scale out your resources. It signi cantly streamlines the cloud operations at scale in production.

Instead of using proprietary e pensive SA storage equipment to build cloud environment, QuickStack utilizes distributed software-driven storage, and can be deployed in a hyper converged compute-storage architecture, which largely improves utilization e ciency of hardware resources. For the networking, it supports Open vSwitch and VLA bridging solutions in cloud set-up. It also supports multiple hypervisors like VM, en, and L C. These all innovations provide e ibility to construct a production cloud that meets IT and business requirements.

QCT provides the complete product line and services from server, storage, network to rack and cloud solutions. QuickStack simpli es hardware and software procurement comple ity with cost e ective bundled solutions, and reduces operational cost to install and troubleshoot technical issues. QCT has considerable skills and e pertise in each component of the architecture, ful lling all your OpenStack cloud vision into a reality.

Deployment and System RequirementsQuickStack supports all OpenStack Icehouse / Juno released components, ensuring service providers and enterprises have best-in-class capabilities to deploy an open source cloud. Components include:

• Administration server (MAAS) sets up the cloud, con gures and provisions the Ubuntu OpenStack, Controller, Compute-Storage nodes. • Controller node provides the self-service, image repository and management capabilities.• Network node provides the networking capabilities, which can be also deployed into Controller nodes.• Compute-Storage node hosts KVM or Xen VMs for workloads running in the cloud, and hosts block or object storage using Ceph or Swift.

QuickStack Ubuntu OpenStack Solution family delivers three models QuickStack All-In-One, QuickStack High-Density and QuickStack ack for di erent demand and IT environments.
