Open Stack

I would hope that it is both HW and SW.  I could be wrong, but having a generic Prerequisite BOM for a minimally functional architecture for each workload, along with a quick install is, in my view, a necessity so that the reference architecture can be quickly deployed in a lab/POC setting.

But, that's just my opinion, although my opinion is that the above goes a good way towards the "win" in winning the enterprise ;-)
