Magnum is an OpenStack API service developed by the OpenStack Containers Team
making container orchestration engines such as Docker and Kubernetes available as first class resources in OpenStack.
Magnum uses Heat to orchestrate an OS image which contains Docker and Kubernetes
and runs that image in either virtual machines or bare metal in a cluster configuration.
