Openstack control panel?

Life Sayings · Dec 25, 2017

Can you guys tell me what is Openstack and does it have a control panel? I read that it is a cloud operating system but I don't know what does it use for?

Openstack is a hypervisor layer for connecting many compute nodes to provide a cloud of hardware to be used with KVM etc.

OpenStack is a free and open-source software platform for cloud computing, mostly deployed as infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), whereby virtual servers and other resources are made available to customers.[2] The software platform consists of interrelated components that control diverse, multi-vendor hardware pools of processing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center. Users either manage it through a web-based dashboard, through command-line tools, or through RESTful web services.

Above is from wikipedia and that gives you a preface I believe. To know more, go to https://www.openstack.org/ and refer docs or check the community.

Does it have a control panel (UI)?
If yes, what conditions to install Openstack on a server?

There is a UI of course for OpenStack. What you ar actually looking for? There is no real point in installing OpenStack on a single server, as its a solution to build cloud environment. if you are looking for any virtualization platform, try any related solution [ like proxmox ]

I agree with mobin. Openstack isn't a KVM control panel like Virtualizor or SolusVM.
You can deploy it on a single server, but only for testing purpose.

OpenStack is a cloud computing software, that can work with different hypervisors, like KVM, LXC (Linux containers), or even VMWare (VIO - VMware integrated OpenStack). It does have a dashboard called Horizon, where you have basic cloud parameters, utilization and metrics monitored, however, it does not show detailed cloud information, which may be a disadvantage for many admins, and in case of troubleshooting, you need to check logs from particular OpenStack components, like Cinder or Glance, which have a separate logging mechanism.

OpenStack is basically a cloud operating system that helps you manage large pools of compute, storage, and networking resources, all through a web-based dashboard or command-line tools. It’s often used for creating and managing private or public clouds, giving you a lot of flexibility if you're running a lot of virtual machines. And yes, it does have a control panel! It's called "Horizon," which lets you manage everything visually and is super helpful for non-command-line folks

OpenStack is an open-source cloud platform that helps you manage large pools of resources like computing, storage, and networking. It allows businesses to build and run their own cloud environments, either private or public, similar to what you'd get from major cloud providers like AWS or Google Cloud.

It comes with a built-in control panel called Horizon, which makes managing things easier. Through Horizon, you can launch virtual machines, manage your network settings, allocate storage, and keep an eye on how everything’s running. It's a pretty flexible solution if you're looking to offer cloud services or manage your own infrastructure more efficiently.
