Thats kinda doing injustice to the OpenStack services that are pretty well designed. We also wanted to offer a complete private cloud solution. That led us to build ZeroStack. </div><div id="yiv7082607291yui_3_16_0_1_1440713517244_3384" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yiv7082607291yui_3_16_0_1_1440713517244_3384" dir="ltr">ZeroStack is a 2 part solution: </div><div id="yiv7082607291yui_3_16_0_1_1440713517244_3384" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yiv7082607291yui_3_16_0_1_1440713517244_3384" dir="ltr">Part 1 consists of a Hyper-converged infrastructure deployed on premise with the management software.
