OpenStack: The Mission

"To produce theubiquitousOpen Source cloud computing platform that will meet the needs of public and private cloud providers regardless of size, by being simple to implement and massively scalable."

OpenStack Release Schedule


Design Summit: October 3-5 Diablo: September 22 Design Summit: April 26-28
Community plans for next releases See blueprints for details

Cactus: April 15, 2011 Bexar: February 3, 2011


OpenStack Compute ready for enterprise private cloud deployments and mid-size service provider deployments Enhanced documentation Easier to install and deploy

OpenStack Compute ready for large service provider scale deployments This is the Rackspace-ready release; need to communicate Rackspace support and plans for deployment

Community with Broad Commercial Support
