[Andrey Volkov · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is more like an introduction to openstack. The first chapter (Architecture) gives common description of openstack services and theirs cooperation and would be useful for novice and mid-prepared users.

The second chapter (Operations) is quite boring from my side and looks like ordinary user's guide. Except Network Troubleshooting section which is very interesting as it collects great experience of SDN engineers.

I must note that Appendixes Use Cases and Tales are really most encouraging and exciting parts of the book. Some information in the book is outdated but it's opensource one and worth to look at in my opinion.

The book delves deep into the deployment and configuration scenarios of openstack from the theory perspective. You have to have basic knowledge of openstack and SDN for the book to be informative, focuses mostly on enterprise and brings utmost of best practices.
