Rackspace Rolls Out OpenStack Cloud Servers | WIRED

▤ Summary

Rackspace today introduced its next generation of cloud servers, powered by the open source OpenStack software it co-founded. The API is remarkably reliable and we can be comfortable with its stability thanks to its OpenStack heritage,” Ram said. “We’re drawing a line in the sand against proprietary cloud providers.” Rackspace’s Vice President of Product, Mark Interrante, said today in a blog post the company had helped develop the software with input from users via a beta program. Have your say: With IBM, RedHat and others all supporting OpenStack, has the open cloud’s day come? Is its “Fanatical Support” and managed-service levels a big deal for your cloud plans?
