"Using OpenStack"
What do you like best about OpenStack? The main benefit of OpenStack that I like the best is to not be tied to one vendor or another. Being able to switch vendors is very important.

It is also wide spread so you can use it at hundreds of companies from small shops to online hosting to media companies.Using OpenOpenStack as a platform What do you dislike about OpenStack? The architecture is still a little ...

"Working with OpenStack"
What do you like best about OpenStack? Easy horizontal scaling and fast deployment vs other solutions available. Also feels more polished when it comes to bigger scale.

What do you dislike about OpenStack? A bit time consuming to integrate into existing development cycle. Training is needed to get started as soon as ...

What do you like best about OpenStack? I think a REST interface for monitoring and controlling my infrastructure. I love software defined networking and the ability to quickly experiment with possible configurations on a large and inter-regional scale. As a developer who's used to working with a separate infrastructure team, self-service is incredibly empowering. It means that I can not only write but deploy and monitor new products and features at any time with zero friction. It makes our ...
