It used to be os-ansible-deployment in stackforge, but we've removed the rackspacisms. I will say that openstack-ansible is one of the few that have been doing upgrades reliably for a while, since at least Icehouse, maybe further. > * How long did it take to do the transition from a package based > solution (with say puppet/chef being used to deploy these packages)? > > * Follow-up being how big was the team to do this? Our team was somewhat bigger than most as we have many deployments and we had to do it from scratch. If you CAN do it solo, but I'd recommend you have coverage / on call for whatever your requirements are. > > * What was the roll-out strategy to achieve the final container solution? > For Openstack-ansible I'd recommend deploying a service at a time, migrating piecemeal.
