Introduction

Midokura Enterprise MidoNet and Mirantis OpenStack deliver a turnkey private- or

public-cloud OpenStack solution, including the leading networking virtualization

overlay. This joint solution is simple to deploy, agile to operate, and securely scales

to thousands of nodes, to match the growth of your business, be it enterprise, web-

scale, or service provider.

OpenStack benefits

OpenStack transforms traditional data centers to software defined infrastructure

(Networking, Storage, essentially SD-everything). The widespread adoption of

OpenStack has made cloud infrastructure a source of competitive advantage. Greater

reliance on cloud infrastructure creates greater expectations. These expectations

and benefits take two forms: On the cost side, organizations adopting Mirantis

OpenStack can lower CapEx and OpEx to decrease costs and drive significant

savings to their bottom line. On the revenue side, the MidoNet virtualized network

environment speeds the pace of experimentation and innovation. Organizations can

deploy OpenStack in a private, public, or hybrid cloud setting, balancing infrastructure

resource elasticity with security, control, and regulatory compliance.

Mirantis

Mirantis is the most flexible and open distribution of OpenStack. In a single

commercially supported package, Mirantis integrates core OpenStack with key related

projects and third-party plug-ins. Mirantis provides Production Ready Packages that

are proven at web-scale, and includes Fuel, the leading purpose-built OpenStack

installer, now part of the OpenStack Big Tent. Mirantis also provides the Murano

Application Catalog to enable rapid workload onboarding. In short, everything you

need to leverage OpenStack as a business enabler, not merely a technology project.

“From being a source of

inertia that inhibits change,

the modern network

has become a source of

momentum to drive positive

business change, and grow

revenue.”

Overcoming Challenges

Mirantis addresses and overcomes the single biggest criticism of OpenStack: it can be difficult to install and administer.

Mirantis and Midokura Enterprise MidoNet: A Turnkey Solution For The Growth Of Your Business

MidoNet

MidoNet is an open-source, software-only, highly scalable, and resilient, network

virtualization system. MidoNet overlays the existing network hardware infrastructure,

and allows users to build isolated networks entirely in software. Its distributed

architecture allows enterprises and service providers to build, run, and manage virtual

networks at scale, with increased control, security, and flexibility. MidoNet provides

virtualized L4 load balancing, virtual L2/L3 switching, and virtualized firewalls.

Mirantis and MidoNet together

The combination of Mirantis OpenStack and Midokura Enterprise MidoNet allows

self-service scale-out clouds to support modern application workloads on virtualized

infrastructure, running on commodity hardware. Midokura integrates with Mirantis

through the MidoNet plugin for Fuel, which automates the entire solution deployment

out-of-the-box. The simplicity of this solution, and the close collaboration between

Mirantis and Midokura development and GTM teams, is proven in multiple successful

enterprise and service-provider deployments.

Commercial Release

The commercial release, Midokura Enterprise MidoNet, adds a unified dashboard for virtual objects, tightly integrated with OpenStack Horizon. It also adds support for ESXi and vSphere, and automated logging and analysis tools, and includes 24x7 enterprise support.
