Last week I started some prototype work on what could be a new way to install the Undercloud. The driving force behind this was some of the recent "composable services" work we've done in TripleO so initially I called in composable undercloud. There is an etherpad here with links to some of the patches already posted upstream (many of which stand as general imporovements on their own outside the scope of what I'm talking about here).
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/tripleo-composable-undercloud The idea in short is that we could spin up a small single process all- in-one heat-all (engine and API) and thereby avoid things like Rabbit, and MySQL. Then we can use Heat templates to drive the Undercloud deployment just like we do in the Overcloud. I created a short video demonstration which goes over some of the history behind the approach, and shows a live demo of all of this working with the patches above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1qMDLAf26Q Thoughts? Would it be cool to have a session to discuss this more in Barcelona?
