In OpenStack, each service typically has a project name or code name that is used internally within the OpenStack community and sometimes externally by users and operators. Here are some of the core OpenStack services along with their project names:
1. **Nova**: Nova is the compute service in OpenStack, responsible for managing and provisioning virtual machines (VMs). Its project name is "Nova."
2. **Swift**: Swift is the object storage service in OpenStack, designed for scalable and durable storage of large amounts of unstructured data. Its project name is "Swift."
3. **Cinder**: Cinder is the block storage service in OpenStack, providing persistent block storage volumes to VMs. Its project name is "Cinder."
4. **Neutron**: Neutron is the networking service in OpenStack, responsible for managing and provisioning network resources such as virtual networks, subnets, routers, and security groups. Its project name is "Neutron."
5. **Glance**: Glance is the image service in OpenStack, used for storing, discovering, and retrieving virtual machine images. Its project name is "Glance."
6. **Keystone**: Keystone is the identity service in OpenStack, providing authentication and authorization services across all OpenStack services. Its project name is "Keystone."
7. **Heat**: Heat is the orchestration service in OpenStack, allowing users to describe and deploy infrastructure resources as code. Its project name is "Heat."
8. **Horizon**: Horizon is the web-based dashboard for OpenStack, providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for managing and monitoring OpenStack resources. Its project name is "Horizon."
These are some of the core projects in OpenStack, but there are also additional projects for specific functionalities and services within the OpenStack ecosystem. Each project typically has its own community of developers and contributors.
