Openstack

Since it’s inception Monoscape was built on top of OpenStack IaaS. This was around early 2011. During this time OpenStack had only a minimal set of features and components like Nova - Compute, Swift - Object Storage, Glance - Image Service and a very basic web interface. It even didn’t had a proper installation process, most people used Stackops distributions. In contrast today OpenStack is a very matured product. Now it has many componenets (Ceilometer - Billing, Cinder - Block Storage, Glance - Image Service, Heat - AWS CloudFormation, Horizon - Dashboard, Keystone - Identity Management, Nova - Compute, Quantum and Swift) including a rich set of features and a well defined installation process. »
