Open Stack

Hi Yumeng,

Thank you for the information.

I will also attend the meeting this Thursday to get a full understanding and plans to work together with CNTT on acceleration management.

Thanks,
Ildikó

So if CNTT wants the complete accelerator management function,it would be better to use cyborg ussuri.
