What is Red Hat OpenStack Platform?

Red Hat OpenStack Platform is a cloud computing platform that virtualizes resources from industry-standard hardware, organizes those resources into clouds, and manages them so users can access what they need—when they need it.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) is a distribution of OpenStack from Red Hat that can be deployed on top of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. RHOSP can be used to deploy a local IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) cloud that is manage in an organization's own environment, and on its own hardware.

RHOSP is composed of a collection of OpenStack services that Red Hat supports, each with a secure API that can be accessed through a unified CLI or web interface. These services correspond to traditional data center services, such as the provisioning of servers, networks, and storage, whose access can be limited through quota management.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform director can be used to configure, deploy, and manage RHOSP. The architecture is flexible, and defined in YAML, so as to save and redeploy any chosen architecture identically across multiple sites. Because of the inherent flexibility of the OpenStack model, RHOSP cannot be described as a single unified architecture.
