2# OpenStack Octavia: operator-scale load balancing built on a fleet of amphorae. Per "Introducing Octavia" the
3# reference amphorae are Ubuntu virtual machines running HAProxy, driven by an API controller, controller worker,
4# health manager, housekeeping manager and driver agent. Per the Octavia configuration reference
5# default_provider_driver is amphora and loadbalancer_topology defaults to SINGLE, so there is no standby amphora.
