Nexenta and Canonical have announced a joint solution that pairs Nexenta’s software-defined storage with Canonical’s Ubuntu OpenStack platform: NexentaEdge.
This new solution delivers high performance object and block storage services with Juju, a service model for automating the deployment and management of applications. This joint release allows Ubuntu customers to leverage NexentaEdge and provides seamless integration with Canonical OpenStack clouds.
Canonical announced a three year partnership with Ericsson to drive innovation around IT cloud and telecom cloud solutions, the latter in line with OPNFV. The move will help both organizations respond to increasing demand from telecoms companies and enterprises for more flexible, scalable options to meet the ever-growing appetite for new services.
Under the terms of the partnership, Ericsson will deploy Ubuntu as the host OS for Ericsson’s Cloud System platform. Ubuntu Server OS will underpin Ericsson’s offering for its telecommunications network, internal data center and cloud computing customers; giving customers flexibility and assisting the global adoption of OpenStack-based cloud technologies.
Coinciding with the OpenStack Summit, which is held this week in Paris, Canonical has officially launched its distribution of Ubuntu OpenStack.
The founder of Canonical, Mark Shuttleworth, has described it as “a full autopilot for the private cloud”. Shuttleworth explained that either with one or 10 racks with Metal-as-a-Service (MaaS), you can indicate your preferences of storage, software defined network (SDN) and hypervisor. Then, the system will automatically create a personal cloud and it will manage it and control it for you, keeping it completely secure and updated to the following version of OpenStack when appropriate.
