Lightbits and RHOSO Overview: Certified NVMe/TCP Block Storage for Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift

Video

Learn what Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift (RHOSO) is, how it differs from classic Red Hat OpenStack Platform, and why Lightbits is now a Red Hat-certified block storage provider for it.

The video walks through the RHOSO architecture, with the OpenStack control plane running as pods on OpenShift and VMs running on dedicated RHEL compute nodes. He explains how teams moving off VMware can choose between OpenShift Virtualization and RHOSO, how the Red Hat migration toolkit moves VMs and their data onto Lightbits volumes, and what the certification process actually checks, from functional Cinder tests to Red Hat’s security and library standards.
