Infrastructure & Cloud Computing
The Future of Cloud Computing
Tools for building and managing cloud computing platforms for public and private clouds
OpenStack is a cloud operating system that controls large pools of compute, storage, and networking resources throughout a datacenter, all managed and provisioned through APIs with common authentication mechanisms.
A dashboard is also available, giving administrators control while empowering their users to provision resources through a web interface.
Beyond standard infrastructure-as-a-service functionality, additional components provide orchestration, fault management and service management amongst other services to ensure high availability of user applications.
The Benefits
Speed & Agility
OpenStack accelerates your time-to-market by giving your business units a self-service portal to access necessary resources on-demand, and an API driven platform for developing cloud-aware apps.
Interoperability & Hybrid Cloud Scenarios
OpenStack is an open and flexible platform that enables application portability even among private and public clouds, allowing enterprises to choose the best cloud for their applications and workflows at any time, without lock-in. It can also be integrated with a variety of key business systems.
Vibrant Commercial Ecosystem
With support from every major IT vendor, including every significant Linux distribution, virtualization hypervisor, and public and hosted private cloud provider, and plug-ins from all major networking and storage vendors, you can build the environment you need with strong commercial and community support.
FEATURED USE CASES
Used across the world in organizations of all types and sizes, OpenStack is deployed in today’s most popular environments.
Expediting Digital Workflow
In the software-defined economy, the delivery of an application or service often depends on many contributors, possibly in multiple companies, working collaboratively to deliver results. Learn how OpenStack gives enterprises the ability to seamlessly move workloads from one cloud to another, whether private or public.
Modernizing Virtualized Infrastructure
Many enterprises operate large VMware-based virtualized infrastructures to support a legacy of mission-critical applications. With OpenStack, they can combine the agility offered by cloud computing while maintaining the stability and resiliency of their traditional environment.
Big Data Analytics
The manufacturing industry is projected to be the second largest generator of data by next year. One innovative manufacturer saw the opportunity to leverage massive amounts of data to plan new features and gain competitive advantage.
Notable Fortune 100 enterprises like BMW, Disney, and Walmart have irrefutably proven that OpenStack is viable for production environments.
