<p>We want people to use OpenStack for practical problem solving, and the increasing size and

density of web content makes for a great use-case for object storage. These tutorials show

you how to use your OpenStack Object Storage installation for practical purposes.</p>

<p>OpenStack Compute gives you a tool to orchestrate a cloud, including running instances,

managing networks, and controlling access to the cloud through users and projects. The

underlying open source project's name is Nova, and it provides the software that can

controls a Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud computing platform. It is similar in

scope to Amazon EC2 and Rackspace Cloud Servers. OpenStack Compute does not include any

virtualization software, rather it defines drivers that interact with underlying

virtualization mechanisms that run on your host operating system, and exposes functionality

over a web-based API.</p>
