Even with the advent of public cloud providers like Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft Azure, plenty of companies rather have the advantages of the cloud while maintaining private infrastructure.
In these scenarios we deploy the power of open source cloud first platforms the original cloud platform that still dominates innovation, OpenStack.
OpenStack is a free, open standard cloud computing platform. It is mostly deployed as infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) in both public and private clouds where virtual servers and other resources are made available to users. The software platform consists of interrelated components that control diverse, multi-vendor hardware pools of processing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center. Users manage it either through a web-based dashboard, through command-line tools, or through RESTful web services.
Also take advantage of the leading cloud first containerization platform Kubernetes. Kubernetes (/k(j)uːbərˈnɛtɪs, -ˈneɪtɪs, -ˈneɪtiːz, -ˈnɛtiːz/, commonly stylized as K8s) is an open-source container orchestration system for automating software deployment, scaling, and management. Google originally designed Kubernetes, but the Cloud Native Computing Foundation now maintains the project.
