Open Cloud Management and Orchestration 2015: Adoption and Experiences
Abstract: Cloud services and technologies are quickly maturing, and a steadily increasing percentage of workloads are being moved to the cloud. While both public and private workload deployments are expected to rise steadily, the fastest growing category is hybrid cloud, which is growing by more than 40% annually. Hybrid cloud presents unique challenges as it brings significantly higher degrees of complexity and operational risk to deployments than pure cloud does. While most who have deployed cloud environments feel they have been successful, those who feel the most successful with their cloud implementations show higher adoption rates of orchestration and automation technologies such as OpenStack. Open cloud technologies are also viewed as contributing to more cost-effective and automated IT operations, with the significant majority if IT practitioners seeing open cloud technology as a catalyst for innovation. |
