Abstract
The OpenStack™ system has several key projects that are separate installations but can work together depending on your cloud needs: OpenStack Compute, OpenStack Object Storage, OpenStack Identity Service, and OpenStack Image Service. You can install any of these projects separately and then configure them either as standalone or connected entities. This guide walks through an installation using packages available through Fedora 17 as well as on RHEL and derivatives through the EPEL repository. It offers explanations for the configuration choices as well as sample configuration files.
