Hi,

I'd like to announce Kayobe[1], a project that we at StackHPC have been
working on recently as we help to build out a performance prototyping
platform for the SKA telescope[2].

Kayobe is an open source tool for automating deployment of Scientific
OpenStack onto a set of bare metal servers. Kayobe is composed of
Ansible playbooks, a python module, and makes heavy use of the OpenStack
kolla project. Kayobe aims to complement the kolla-ansible project,
providing an opinionated yet highly configurable OpenStack deployment
and automation of many operational procedures. Further information is
available in the project's documentation[3].

In our recent blog post[4] we discuss some of the Zero Touch
Provisioning (ZTP) capabilities of the project that allowed us to
quickly commission the hardware for the SKA performance prototype
platform. To achieve this, Kayobe leverages ironic inspector's
introspection rules and node discovery, and Ansible's networking
modules. We think these techniques may be applicable to other deployment
tools such as TripleO and would be interested to share experiences and
code with those communities.

We'd love to hear feedback from the OpenStack community on the direction
this project is taking, and of course encourage interested parties to
get involved!

Thanks,
Mark (mgoddard)
