DataCentred and Codethink consider virtualization on OpenStack as key to enabling enterprise and embedded customers exploit the simplicity and speed of OpenStack deployments.


Dr Mike Kelly, CEO of DataCentred, said:  “Our partnership with Codethink demonstrates our long term commitment to the OpenStack ecosystem. We know that the benefits of cloud computing can scale beyond mainstream IT and online services and it is really exciting to see the potential for a variety of infrastructures into a cloud environment. Using a true open cloud requires a different approach to thinking about problems. The structure that a true cloud brings, can be applied to so many different application areas. This structure is almost a wrapper into which a whole variety of systems requiring scalable management can be slotted. Open clouds particularly lend themselves to this varied workload, because they are so powerful, flexible and indifferent to architectures, by design.
