Compute relies on an external image service to store virtual machine images and maintain a catalog of available images. By default, Compute is configured to use the Image service (glance), which is currently the only supported image service.
Note
The common configurations for shared service and libraries, such as database connections and RPC messaging, are described at Common configurations.
