CloudVPS ran openstack "v1", migrated to their v2 (named horizon I believe), never really completed migration. Transip bought them, and half baked merging their consoles. I'm still using the object store there for backups, but always have a hard time finding where to login 🤦.
Tech is fine though.

I've deployed ceph on openstack, vanilla kubernetes, and openshift before but I've never actually deployed it from scratch with the dashboard or any rados gateway features enabled.
I'm literally giddy right now.

So is OpenStack just for the big banks and the giant telcos? Opinions differ here; Sean Cohen at Red Hat thinks that's where it shines but Ravi and @cloudnull.bsky.social had a lot of stories about trying it out at smaller scale, so I'll keep an eye on where it starts showing up.
Can OpenStack replace VMware to run private virtualisation?
"OpenStack's goal is not to be a less functional VMware, it’s to be a better OpenStack with its own ecosystem..."

I hope one of these days someone finds a few former rackers from their glory days and writes a behind the scenes look at the fall of @rackspacetech.bsky.social
I joke they spent all their money on that party at the last good openstack conference. The number of drunk hedge fund analysts there...

Need about twelve more hours in my day. Spent most of today getting setup to move off of Hashicorp Nomad and onto OpenStack. Since it is requiring rewiring some of my network, I'm trying to setup a single machine to hold my websites while I re-setup my hardware.

OpenStack on top of Kubernetes (K3s) that runs in VMs which are hosted on a 3-node Proxmox bare metal cluster, aka BabushkaCloud ☁️🚀🔥. This way you could spin up sovereign regions for your own private cloud(s) on any hyperscaler that allows KVM on their BMS, or at your premises, in less than an hour.

so the way I want to use sub-pages is to collect the pages that collect the bluesky threads I write about my articles: top level page, The Stack, subpages on Talos and OpenStack and Flatcar and so on, one per article, next top level page The New Stack, subpages XSLT and ES2016 and Baseline and so on

I think that if France can have OVH offering VPS, managed kubernetes, managed databases, storage, openstack and the automation it provides via those APIs then we can too. What are we waiting for - the US to suddenly wage warfare by shutting off access to Canadian data and services hosted on AWS […]

OpenStackはGitlabのように提供方法はgitのみで完結するべきだよなぁ。CPANのパッケージとか触ったことがあるけど対象のサービスがちゃんと動かないとかあって話にならない事が多い。

"oh yeah I'm just installing and configuring NGINX with fail2ban so my OpenStack Swift instance doesn't get pwned when I open it up to accept inbound traffic, it's a bit tricky configuring the proxy settings so I map traffic from port blah to port shah though" I feel crazy
