what kind of os more suitable blade servers? linux centos choice?
you can try linux flavours (opensuse/centos/ubuntu) mentioned in openstack official site. used ubuntu installing openstack.
there openly available juju charms works on ubuntu installing openstack services. easy edit charms , deploy.
is ok(or encouraged) directly use blade servers openstack controller/compute/storage nodes? or need use 1 hypervisor create many vms , install openstack services on top of vms?
i prefer vm based installation list of choices. suggest use containers deploy openstack services better performance.
for compute service, can go bare metal installation, upto you.
what're best practices or suggestions want give beginners?
a. try installing same topology/setup mentioned in openstack documentation
b. use recommended databases , amqp brokers
