A Look at OpenStackRussell [email protected]@russellbryant
OpenStack Mission
to produce the ubiquitous Open Source Cloud Computing
platform that will meet the needs of public and private
clouds regardless of size, by being simple to implement and
massively scalable.
Open is more than Open Source● Open Source
○ Apache Licensed○ Not “open core”
● Open Design○ The design process is open.
● Open Development○ Code, reviews, roadmaps
● Open Community○ Public meetings, community elected leadership
● https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open
Public Clouds● http://www.openstack.org/marketplace/public-clouds/
○ lists 20 OpenStack based public clouds
● Some examples …○ Rackspace Public Cloud○ DreamCompute by DreamHost
Private Clouds● Cloud infrastructure for your data center.
● The majority of OpenStack usage today.
● Why private cloud? Let’s talk through some examples ...○ https://www.openstack.org/user-stories/
● OpenStack user survey also provides some insight
“By the holidays last year, Walmart.com’s entire U.S. production traffic was on
OpenStack compute.”

“With our OpenStack cloud, we’ve been able to offer
physicists the resources they need to analyze and model
data from the LHC [Large Hadron Collider].”
TIM BELL, MANAGER, INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES, CERN
OpenStack at CERN● https://www.openstack.org/user-stories/cern/● “Planning and testing is now ongoing to expand the cloud to
15,000 hypervisors with over 150,000 VMs in the next 18 months.”
● Specialized integration needs○ existing identity system with 44,000 users○ integration with existing network (lab with millions of IP devices)○ hardware and configuration suited for HPC workloads
