Barring his subtle product [Cloudify] promotion I thought Nati Shalom [GigaSpaces founder] has thoughtfully crafted this blog about dealing with OpenStack and/or VMware conundrum
My thoughts on OpenStack
Common notion is OpenStack is a part of third platform build out efforts by the community in unison
True SDDC is a reality by SDI(nfra) which enables the underlying Infra to be 3 big P’s — Programmable, Pluggable and Portable
OpenStack could be a strong answer to all those P’s 🙂
Yes, Cost is a killer in VMW ecosystem but OpenStack is not quite ready for legacy apps work loads (I may be wrong!). But with community and industry behemoths’ push it’s inching towards ‘Darling of the masses’ stature!
Nothing but Cloud
