Well to be precise:

  • How does one install it? On a hypervisor? On a regular distro + KVM?
  • Should I go with Proxmox/Debian/some other distro?
  • I already installed Flatcar Linux, is this also suitable?

    It’s for getting acquainted with the whole software stack. Also I have enough free time for it :) I’m also very well aware what the difference between a container service and a hypervisor are, I’m just a little overwhelmed by what open stack can do.

      I used to be a certified OpenStack Administrator and I’ll say that K8s has eaten its lunch in many companies and in mindshare.

      But if you do it, look at triple-o instead of installing from docs.

      Deploying openstack seems like a very fun and frustrating experience. If you succeed, you should consider graduating from selfhosting and entering hosting business. Then, maybe post your offering on lowendtalk. Not many providers there use openstack so you might be able to lead the pack there.
