Red Hat still plans on being The OpenStack company
Of course, you think of Red Hat as being The Linux company. Everyone does. But, if Red Hat has its way, you'll think of them as The cloud company. Red Hat is showing once more its intention to be the king of the OpenStack hill with its release of Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOP) 9.
This is a highly scalable, open-source Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform. It's designed to deploy, scale, and manage private cloud, public cloud, and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) environments. It's based on the OpenStack community "Mitaka" release. The focus of this release was to make the notoriously hard-to-install OpenStack easier to deploy.
