OpenStack Essentials
Demystify the cloud by building your own private OpenStack cloud If you need to get started with OpenStack or want to learn more, then this book is your perfect companion. If you're comfortable with the Linux command line, you'll gain confidence in using OpenStack. An OpenStack cloud is a complex jungle of components that can speed up managing a virtualization platform. Applications that are built for this platform are resilient to failure and convenient to scale. OpenStack allows administrators and developers to consolidate and control pools of compute, networking, and storage resources, with a centralized dashboard and administration panel to enable the large-scale development of cloud services. Begin by exploring and unravelling the internal architecture of the OpenStack cloud components. After installing the RDO distribution, you will be guided through each component via hands-on exercises, learning more about monitoring and troubleshooting the cluster. By the end of the book, you'll have the confidence to install, configure, and administer an OpenStack cloud. This is a practical and comprehensive tutorial on sorting out the complexity of an OpenStack cloud.

Great book for openstack starter, discusses 1-N tier and 3-N tier architecture of deploying openstack components including keystone, nova, glance and rest of the crew ... Unfortunately the project is under rapid development which makes it complicated task to follow-up with any guide strictly. therefore lots of steps involved are not practical anymore even the packstack and devstack are claiming such issue. Beware that the project contains lots of other stacks and plugins to install, in which renders it very fragile to troubleshoot and crams up the log server if any.

A good way to get your feet wet. Note that this is just an intro into actually digging into the on-line documentation. You have to have a firm background in Unix as well.
