OpenStack Placement provides an HTTP service for managing, selecting, and claiming providers of classes of inventory representing available resources in a cloud.

API

To learn how to use Placement's API, consult the documentation available online at:

• Placement API Reference <https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/placement/>__

For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:

• OpenStack for App Developers <https://www.openstack.org/appdev/>__
• Development resources for OpenStack clouds <https://developer.openstack.org/>__

Operators

To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Placement, consult the documentation available online at:

• OpenStack Placement <https://docs.openstack.org/placement/>__

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

• Bug Tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/placement>__
• File new Bug <https://bugs.launchpad.net/placement/+filebug>__
