OpenStack

The best cloud platform available is also the most efficient one.

Pioneered by Rocket Scientists, Perfected at CoreSpace

 

In July 2010, NASA launched a cloud software initiative known as OpenStack.  Their mission statement was “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.”

 

Today, OpenStack is a cloud workhorse for over half of Fortune 500 companies due to its robust, open, developer-friendly architecture and its economical ability to provide superb cloud benefits while saving significantly on cloud software licensing costs.

 

OpenStack has many advantages…

Developer Agility

With self-service developer agility, time-wasting central resource ticketing processes become obsolete.  And with no expensive software licensing fees and full compatibility with commodity hardware, OpenStack can drastically reduce overall cloud expenses.

Open to the Future
