In my latest podcast I talk with Jim Curry, VP Corporate Development at Rackspace and Chief Stacker at OpenStack.
The OpenStack activity was unveiled by Rackspace, NASA, and their partners back in July, and is on track to deliver functional initial releases in the next few weeks. We discuss the relationship between OpenStack’s deliverables and earlier developments from Rackspace and NASA’s Nebula project, and begin to explore the implications of an Open Source Cloud Computing stack for the wider industry.
