- bretpiatt 12y agoBy what measure is OpenStack struggling?
- hkarthik 12y agoIn the startup world, it's definitely struggling. But I think it's doing far better in Enterprises that are building private clouds. When a startup is faced with setting up a complicated OpenStack environment versus just using AWS, it's a no brainer to go with AWS. For an established enterprise, it's a different decision. They often have lots of legacy applications, enterprise apps like Oracle/SAP, etc that can't just go right on AWS without issue. For them, Private Cloud vendors selling interoperable solutions on top of OpenStack are very attractive.
