HPE-Rackspace OpenStack
Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Rackspace launched OpenStack Private Cloud last year with pay-per-use infrastructure delivered as a managed service. Customers pay for the cloud-like meter pricing in a private cloud environment located either in their own data center, a colocation facility or a data center managed by Rackspace. HPE said it enables customers to handle unpredictable growth and bursts in workloads without having to pay for additional fixed capacity. With the flexible capacity model, customers typically will save 40 percent or more compared to the public cloud, according to the vendors.
