OpenStack: Five Years of Open Cloud Collaboration: stakes, journey, actors and perspectives.

It is always exciting to talk about OpenStack; this famous open source software for building clouds. Enterprises use OpenStack to support rapid deployment of new products, reduce costs and improve internal systems.

Henceforth this open source software is De Facto Open Source Standard for Private and Hybrid. 

OpenStack marks its fifth anniversary this month. For those who unfamiliar, Connectikpeople.co recalls that, launched in 2010 as a joint project between Rackspace and NASA, OpenStack started as two open source projects to orchestrate virtual machines and object storage. 

Henceforth it includes dozens of projects: from accelerating software development to reducing the cost of big data analytics to helping large telco providers roll out Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and next generation network services. 

The community of OpenStack supporters has grown to include more than 500 organizations and 30,000 individual members across 166 countries. There have been 4,000 contributors to date producing nearly 4 million lines of code.

Happy Birthday!!!
