2015 OpenStack Summit Tokyo – Vish Jakka and Guil Barros– Cisco UCS & Red Hat OpenStack Upstream P
FlexPod is a pre-validated and leading data center converged architecture followed by best practices that is built on the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), the Cisco Nexus® family of switches, and NetApp unified storage systems. Its configurations and workloads are published as Cisco Validated Designs.
With the growing interest, continuous evolution, and popular acceptance of Openstack there has been an increased customer’s demand to have Openstack platform validated on FlexPod, and be made available for Enterprise private cloud, as well as other Openstack based Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud deployments. To accelerate this process and simplify the evolution to a shared cloud infrastructure, together Cisco, NetApp, and Red Hat have developed a validated solution FlexPod with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Openstack Platform (RHEL OSP) 6.0. This solution will enable customers to quickly and reliably deploy production grade Openstack based private and hybrid cloud on converged infrastructure while offering FlexPod Cooperative Support Model that will provide both Openstack and FlexPod support.
