OpenStack – Unlocking the Cloud

Event Interactive 2011
Format Panel
Organizer Lew Moorman Rackspace
Description The cloud computing market has exploded and reached hyper-fragmentation with dozens of IaaS vendors, yet the majority of offerings are proprietary, closed platforms. As a result, many technology companies and cloud consumers are rallying around an open source alternative, OpenStack, which has the potential to drive open cloud standards. This panel will explore the state of open cloud standards, relevant players, and benefit to end users, including the acceleration of cloud technologies and the ability to freely move workloads from private to public clouds, or among different service providers.
