<title>Deployment Architecture Overview</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
A &PRODUCT; installation consists of two parts: the Management Server
|
|
and the cloud infrastructure that it manages. When you set up and
|
|
manage a &PRODUCT; cloud, you provision resources such as hosts,
|
|
storage devices, and IP addresses into the Management Server, and
|
|
the Management Server manages those resources.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The minimum production installation consists of one machine running
|
|
the &PRODUCT; Management Server and another machine to act as the
|
|
cloud infrastructure (in this case, a very simple infrastructure
|
|
consisting of one host running hypervisor software). In its smallest
|
|
deployment, a single machine can act as both the Management Server
|
|
and the hypervisor host (using the KVM hypervisor).

A more full-featured installation consists of a highly-available
|
|
multi-node Management Server installation and up to tens of thousands of
|
|
hosts using any of several advanced networking setups. For
|
|
information about deployment options, see the "Choosing a Deployment Architecture"
|
|
section of the &PRODUCT; Installation Guide.
