German operator Deutsche Telekom is using OpenStack to host applications in its Business Marketplace cloud service, and is committed to making the open source software more secure and easier to manage, the company said on Monday at the Cebit trade show.

OpenStack is an open-source community that develops software, also called OpenStack, for private and public clouds. It will be used to power some of the applications on Deutsche Telekom's Business Marketplace, an online platform that will offer cloud services to small and medium-size businesses starting in summer 2012.

There were several things that attracted the German operator to the open-source cloud platform, including the idea that users aren't locked-in to one vendor's platform and that it allows software vendors to add their applications to Deutsche Telekom's cloud faster.
