OpenStack is the de facto open source standard to build private and public clouds.
We believe deploying and getting familiar with OpenStack should be an easy task for all developers, that’s why we have built conjure-up, a simple interface to deploy big software with best practices built-in.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use conjure-up to deploy OpenStack locally on a single machine, without prior knowledge.
It’s recommended you have at least 16GB of RAM.
What you’ll learn
- How to install OpenStack on your machine with conjure-up

Smart operations, optimal architecture, better pricing.
OpenStack and Ubuntu bring automated deployment and management that help you optimize infrastructure costs — no matter your industry or use case.
