Highlights of the week G stands for Grizzly <http://markmail.org/message/nrgea2jdl5ms4hdp> Results of the naming poll for next OpenStack release are in, and the G release will be named "*Grizzly*". The regular poll selected "Gazelle" (35 votes), with "Gilroy" (27 votes) being a close second. But the Grizzly revolt poll showed overwhelming support for the "Grizzly" name (88 votes) rather than going with the results of the regular poll (46 votes). The /Waldon exception/ (accepting elements of the state/country flag in addition to city/county names) will be added to our naming rules for future naming contests :) Some clarifications about Cinder <http://markmail.org/message/bfdqiclqtkv2tqql> With the promotion of Cinder to OpenStack core project, Cinder's PTL John Griffith explained what the project does and what the future release, Grizzly, may look like.

OpenStack Celebrates a Successful First Year
by Stephen Spector 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

>From Jim Curry on the OpenStack.org Blog. A year into the life of OpenStack, it seems like its success should have been more obvious. The market lacked an open platform designed specifically for building and managing a cloud. We knew that fact at Rackspace because we had been forced to build our own solution. For five years we looked for off the shelf technologies that could power our public cloud but never found an acceptable solution. So we kept building our own proprietary technology. But that wasn¹t the right answer. As a company, we had always relied on standardized technologies to power our offers. Technologies that our customers were also running in their own datacenters. But in cloud, such standards did not exist and were nowhere in sight. Certainly, the ones that were emerging were not completely open. And by building our own solution one not available to anyone else we weren¹t actually helping to solve the problem. So we decided to open source our technology, and make it available for use by our competitors and customers alike. What we didn¹t know was whether anyone else saw the world as we did. A year later, its obvious we weren¹t alone. Consider these stats: * We grew from 2 organizations to over 89 * We grew from a couple dozen developers to nearly 250 unique contributors in the Cactus release and over 1,200 in the development community * Over 35,000 downloads from Launchpad and thousands more from our ecosystem * The scope of the project has truly evolved into a cloud operating system, tackling a diverse range of cloud infrastructure needs such as networking, load balancers and database. * Our initial conference and design summit had over 100 people, while the last in April hosted over 450 * We have delivered 3 major releases and are halfway to the fourth * 17 countries have active participants and user groups now exist on 5 continents One of the key reasons OpenStack has been successful is that it has such an audacious mission to build an operating system to power both public and private clouds. We believe that while public and private clouds do have different requirements, much of the core need is shared. Things such as basic management, self-service and scalability. OpenStack started with the large scale cloud expertise of Rackspace and NASA and has since added a wealth of knowledge from a who¹s who list contributors with broad-ranging enterprise and service provider expertise. All of these participants recognize that in order for the promise of cloud to be realized for workloads to seamlessly migrate from one environment to another a common platform is required inside the enterprise DC as well as the public cloud. The technology should also be purpose-built for cloud, rather than a bolt-on to existing server virtualization technologies. And that solution should be open and controlled by a vast community rather than a single vendor. The shared community desire for an open cloud operating system powering both public and private clouds has resulted in a flurry of activity around OpenStack. Consider the following: * Major enterprise software companies such as Citrix and Canonical, as well as startups such as StackOps, have announced commerical distributions of OpenStack. This is a very key development for enterprise adoption. * Reference hardware architectures from the likes of Dell, Cisco, Intel and AMD for OpenStack. * The contributions from service providers and announcement of public clouds powered by OpenStack including Rackspace, Internap, Dreamhost, Dell, Korea Telecom, Memset and Nephoscale among others. * Support for OpenStack deployments by the likes of Cloudscaling, Cybera and Rackspace Cloud Builders. * Deployment support from Puppet Labs and Opscode. * A host of tools and software integration from scores of companies including Scalr, Rightscale, FathomDB, enStratus, and many others. * Venture funding and M&A activity have picked up in the community, including the recent funding of Piston and the acquisition of Cloud.com by Citrix (both OpenStack community members). Most importantly, enterprises are really beginning to deploy OpenStack. It wasn¹t until the Cactus release in April that OpenStack truly became ready for production deployments. But during the 3 months since that release, the number of companies deploying the technologies is truly remarkable. Expect to see many of these stories coming to light in the next few months. Thank you to everyone who has made OpenStack happen over the last year! It has been an incredibly rewarding experience to be part of such an engaged and diverse community committed to the goal of an open cloud operating system. Happy first birthday to all! - - - Stephen Spector, Rackspace OpenStack Community Manager stephen.spector(a)openstack.org OpenStack Blog <http://openstack.org/blog> | @opnstk_ <http://twitter.com/opnstk_com_mgr> com <http://twitter.com/opnstk_com_mgr> _mgr <http://twitter.com/opnstk_com_mgr> Office +1 (512) 539-1162 | Mobile +1 (210) 415-0930

OpenStack Announces Bexar Release and Participating Companies
by Stephen Spector 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

From the official OpenStack press release at http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20110203006362/en/OpenStack-Ready-Dep… OpenStack is Ready to Deploy With ‘Bexar’ Code Release Ubuntu leader Canonical and Cisco now make 50 companies participating in OpenStack community SAN ANTONIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OpenStack™, the open source cloud project founded by Rackspace® Hosting and NASA, today announced the ‘Bexar’ code release of OpenStack Compute and Object Storage which includes a variety of new features, an official documentation site and key new participants to drive adoption of the emerging cloud standard by service providers and enterprise users. While OpenStack Object Storage has already been deployed at commercial scale, for the first time, the release of these new features and documentation makes OpenStack Compute ready to deploy as an open source alternative to proprietary, expensive virtualization solutions. “OpenStack is rapidly moving to solve these problems, and it’s evident to us that we need an open cloud standard to best enable hybrid scenarios, federation and easy migration. We appreciate the hundreds of contributors who see the vision and have joined the cause.” “We’ve heard CIOs hesitate to invest in proprietary cloud technology, because they don’t to want be locked in for the long haul. They want the freedom to switch cloud hosting or technology providers and gain more flexibility with their deployments,” said Jim Curry, GM of OpenStack at Rackspace. “OpenStack is rapidly moving to solve these problems, and it’s evident to us that we need an open cloud standard to best enable hybrid scenarios, federation and easy migration. We appreciate the hundreds of contributors who see the vision and have joined the cause.” Bexar Release Features The Bexar release of OpenStack Compute introduces new enterprise features that streamline the installation process, allow users to pre-install and create their own application environments and instantly spin up the same copy as they scale out. The full list of features in Compute includes internationalization, support for IPv6, Hyper-V, iSCSI with XenAPI, XenServer snapshots and raw disk images, as well as the addition of a sub-project code-named Glance, an image discovery and delivery service that enables portability of workloads between OpenStack clouds. Object Storage now supports storing of files up to unlimited sizes, and the two projects have become more tightly integrated. The new release also includes the launch of an official documentation site with PDF and HTML manuals to guide users through installation and deployment. The new features and documentation were made possible by contributions from a long list of core contributors and participating companies, including Anso Labs, Citrix, Cloud.com, FathomDB, NTT Data and Rackspace. The theme of the next OpenStack ‘Cactus’ release, expected in April, will be optimizing the project for service provider-scale deployments. Cactus is also expected to include additional highly requested features such as live migration of virtual machines. The next public Design Summit will take place April 26-29, 2011 in Santa Clara, CA, where community members will plan for the following two releases, including ‘Diablo’ to be released Summer 2011. Participating Companies New OpenStack community members Canonical, Cisco, Extreme Networks and Grid Dynamics have joined the 50-member-strong alliance to continue advancing the code base and drive adoption of the open cloud operating system. Canonical has committed to include OpenStack in the April release of Ubuntu Server 11.04, while Cisco has assembled a development team of engineers that will contribute design specifications and code to the OpenStack community. "We are really delighted to bring the Bexar release to Ubuntu users in the next version of Ubuntu Server in April," said Neil Levine, VP of Corporate Services at Canonical. "Our goal in cloud computing is to deliver a platform for businesses and for cloud providers that integrates the best technology available on which to build open-source cloud environments. OpenStack is critical to that goal and I know that there is huge anticipation in our user base to start exploring the capabilities of OpenStack on the best OS for the cloud, which is Ubuntu." “Open source plays an important role in cloud computing, and Cisco’s membership in the OpenStack community reflects our focus on helping to advance this technology,” said Lew Tucker, vice president and chief technology officer, Cloud Computing, Cisco. “Cisco takes a systems approach to cloud computing for its customers and holds a commitment to open standards and industry collaboration. For many of our customers and partners, open-source solutions such as OpenStack provide an alternative approach to architect and deploy cloud solutions.” About OpenStack™ OpenStack is a large-scale open source cloud project and community established to drive industry standards, end cloud lock-in and speed the adoption of cloud technologies by service providers and enterprises. The project currently includes OpenStack Object Storage, a fully distributed object store, and OpenStack Compute, a scalable compute provisioning engine.
