OpenStack Compute (codename Nova) is open source software designed to provision and manage large
networks of virtual machines, creating a redundant and scalable cloud computing platform. It gives
you the software, control panels, and APIs required to orchestrate a cloud, including running
instances, managing networks, and controlling access through users and projects. OpenStack Compute
strives to be both hardware and hypervisor agnostic, currently supporting a variety of standard
hardware configurations and seven major hypervisors.
This package contains the Nova services providing database access for the compute service
