Nimble meets massive

Hybrid: AWS design patterns in the open

OpenStack & Euca


Why HP buying EUCA is hugeInstead of replying via multiple tweets, I thought I would articulate why I think this is huge and is currently in awe of whoever is running HP strategy. Its a short post.

Things EUCA focused on and did well:

1. Interoperability with AWS — this was their differentiator

2. Simple to get started — one line install and minutes to get started

3. Product Focus — they stayed focused and executed well on delivering a product.

• We sell and support OpenStack
