Cloud in a Box

Cloud in a Box is a minimalistic installation of OSISM with only services which are needed to make it run.

With the Cloud in a Box, it is possible to run a full Sovereign Cloud Stack deployment.

For information how to install the Cloud in a Box, please have a look at the Cloud in a Box Guide.

The development notes in the official documentation are useful for bug fixes and the further development of CiaB.

Types

There are three types of Cloud in a Box.

  1. The sandbox type is intended for developers and demonstrations. A full OSISM installation is one there which also includes Ceph and OpenSearch, for example. In the course of the installation, necessary images, networks, etc. are also created.

  2. The edge type is intended to be deployed as an appliance to provide an edge cloud on a single node. Compared to the sandbox, certain services are not provided there or are implemented differently. For example, OpenSearch is not deployed because the logs are delivered to a central location. The storage backend will also be implemented differently there in the future instead of Ceph.

  3. The kubernetes type is intended to be deployed as an appliance to provide a edge Kubernetes cluster on a single node.
