WHAT IS OPENSTACK? OPENSTACK CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE FOR CLOUD-ENABLED WORKLOADS l Modular architecture l Designed to easily scale out l Based on (growing) set of core services IS OPENSTACK A “CLOUD OPERATING SYSTEM”? OPENSTACK
l Needs to access x86 hardware resources l Needs an operating environment, hypervisor, services l Leverages existing code libraries for functionality OPENSTACK l It is dependent on the underlying Linux...

Just in, Red Hat is the leader once again in Ice House! RED HAT'S OPENSTACK LEADERSHIP WHY DO THESE STATISTICS MATTER?
l Proof that Red Hat has skills, resources to:
l Support customers
l Drive new features
l Influence strategy and direction of project
l Enable partner collaboration
l Wide ranging participation, contrasts with most others who are more narrowly focused l RHEL-OSP is an enterprise-grade distribution with ecosystem, lifecycle, and support that customers expect from Red Hat So back to the original theme:
The differences between OpenStack and a cloud management platform
CLOUDFORMS Cloud Operations Management
l Delivers an Open Cloud Management Platform that Supports Heterogeneous Private, Public and Hybrid Clouds
l Enables Evolution from Proprietary Infrastructures to Open, Hybrid Clouds
l Enables IT to Deliver IAAS and Broker Cloud Services, Optimize Resources and Reduce Costs
l Manages Service Deployment across Hybrid Clouds Using Policies, SLAs and Cost
l Provides Rich Integration into Existing Enterprise Management Systems and Processes
l Eliminates Proprietary Cloud Management Tool Vendor Lock-In CLOUDFORMS Capabilities CLOUDFORMS Built for Cloud Scale Operations Management CLOUDFORMS Built for Virtualization and Cloud Management IT CLOUD MANAGEMENT Seamless Self-Service

Did you hear?
Red Hat just announced that CloudForms has been open sourced Why Open Source CloudForms?
● It's Red Hat DNA – market expects open-source from Red Hat
● Red Hat is first to open-source a Cloud Management Platform
● Provides an alternative to traditional proprietary management platforms
● History proves an enterprise acceptance of open source and is pervasive throughout IT architectures (RHEL, JBoss, Satellite, even RHEV)
● Innovation in an open-source model can out pace proprietary vendors – more engineers, more partners = better code
● Who do you expect to build better integration to other infrastructure components? – proprietary vendor engineers OR partner's engineers for those other infrastructure components (ie NetApp, Cisco, HP, Dell, ServiceNow...) Open Source Community Structure
● Hosted under Manageiq.org
● Both Engineer and User Community
● Users, ISVs/IHVs, System Integrators
