Cloud Infrastructure for Virtual Machines,
Bare Metal, and Containers

OpenStack controls large pools of compute, storage, and networking resources, all managed through APIs or a dashboard.

Beyond standard infrastructure-as-a-service functionality, additional components provide orchestration, fault management and service management amongst other services to ensure high availability of user applications.

OpenStack is the open source cloud computing standard to support virtual machines, container and bare metal workloads. Learn more about open source integration options in the Open Infrastructure Blueprint white paper.
