Another wonderful experience is Walter being allowed to take part in the technical review of the newly launched OpenStack Cloud Computing Cookbook, Third Edition , Packt Publishing .
I would like to thank my wife and best friend, Tasha, for allowing me to take on this life-changing opportunity; I don't think it would have been possible without her understanding and support. She is truly my life's motivation. Also, I wish to thank my wonderful daughters, London and Rio, for bringing so much joy to our lives. I would like to thank my mother and father for cultivating the technical spirit within me from a very early age (that Commodore 64 was definitely my springboard LOL).
I would also like to thank my coworker and fellow architect Kevin Jackson, for providing me with the courage to take on this project. I also wish to say thanks and express my gratitude to all of my mentors over the years that I have had the privilege to work for; those individuals include David Bartlett, Tyrone Paige, Steve Contrabasso, and Mike Childress. Their multitude of great advice has allowed me to be where I am today.
Diego Woitasen has more than 10 years of experience in the Linux and open source consulting industry. He is (with Luis Vinay) the co-founder of http://flugel.it/, self-denominated infrastructure developers; they apply all those years of experience to help all sorts of companies to embrace the DevOps culture and the new movements related with interdisciplinary cooperative working environments.

As OpenStack is now being considered to be more of a mainstream cloud platform, the challenge of operating it after it is built has become prevalent. While all cloud tasks can be executed via the API or CLI tool on a one-by-one basis, it will not be the best method to handle larger cloud deployments. The need for a more automated approach to administer OpenStack is now clear. Most organizations are seeking methods to improve business agility and have realized that just having a cloud is not enough. Being able to improve application deployments, reduce infrastructure downtime, and eliminate daily manual tasks, can only be accomplished through some sort of automation. OpenStack and Ansible will help any organization close that gap. With the IaaS capabilities that OpenStack has to offer coupled with Ansible, an easy to use configuration management tool assures a more complete cloud implementation.
Whether you are new to OpenStack or a seasoned cloud administrator, this book will aid you in managing your OpenStack cloud once it is all set up. Packed with real world OpenStack administrative tasks, we will first have a look at the working examples natively and then transition to walking through instructions on how to automate these tasks using one of the most popular open source automation tools, Ansible.
Ansible has become a market leader in the open source orchestration and automation space. With it being built using Python, similar to OpenStack, it makes for an easy marriage. The ability to leverage existing and/or new OpenStack modules will allow you to quickly move along your playbook creation.
