A Step-by-Step Technical Reference Guide
Modern cloud infrastructure demands storage that is fast, scalable, and tightly integrated with compute orchestration layers. This white paper illustrates the integration between Lightbits NVMe/TCP disaggregated storage and Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift (RHOSO) — one of the most sophisticated OpenStack deployment models available today.
RHOSO runs the OpenStack control plane as pods on the OpenShift Container Platform, while compute workloads are managed as External Data Plane Management nodes running RHEL 9.4. Integrating a high-performance storage backend into this hybrid architecture requires orchestration and integration between the Kubernetes control plane, the bare-metal compute nodes and the Lightbits cluster.
This document provides complete, production-oriented guidance for integrating Lightbits storage as the Cinder block storage backend and as persistent volume storage for RHOSO — including sample YAML manifests, permission requirements, and multi-node scaling considerations.
