DevStack is a set of shell scripts and utilities that quickly deploy a full OpenStack cloud from upstream git source trees on a clean Ubuntu or Rocky Linux machine. It is primarily aimed at developers and CI systems that need disposable OpenStack environments for testing and development.
Use cases
- spin up a local OpenStack cloud for development
- set up an OpenStack test environment in a VM
- test cross-project OpenStack features against trunk code
- run OpenStack CI on every commit
- learn OpenStack internals by deploying from source
- prototype changes to OpenStack services
When to choose
- you need a disposable OpenStack environment built from git for development or CI
- you want to test specific OpenStack branch combinations or milestone-proposed code
- you are an OpenStack contributor who needs a realistic dev cloud quickly
When to avoid
- you want a production OpenStack deployment - use OpenStack-Ansible, Kolla-Ansible, or a packaged distribution instead
- you cannot dedicate a clean disposable VM, since the scripts alter system configuration extensively
- you need a supported, upgradeable installation rather than a dev sandbox
