Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift can now be deployed using hosted control planes (HCPs), enabling multiple isolated OpenStack environments on a single hub cluster. This architecture provides three key benefits: version isolation (each hosted cluster has independent CRDs and operators), granular security (separate cluster admin personas per environment), and reduced hardware footprint via OpenShift Virtualization. The guide covers hub cluster prerequisites (3+ nodes, 16 CPU/32GB RAM per node, NVMe storage), required operators (OpenShift Virtualization, MetalLB, NMState, Multicluster Engine), network configuration via NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy, and hosted cluster creation using the hcp CLI with the kubevirt provider.
