Virtual Bare Metal: DevStack Multi Node on EC2

Re:Virtual Bare Metal: DevStack Multi Node on EC2 by nonane on Thursday June 12, 2014 @11:38AM (#7884010)

Hi there,

I'm struggling to understanding where OpenStack fits in and what features it provides over a stock Ubuntu install or perhaps a CoreOS cluster? Does it provide a consistent platform to deploy apps on?

Thanks!

This is more a generic OpenStack question. But the way I look at it, OpenStack is the "fabric" that can be used to create a large, distributed IaaS cloud such as Amazon EC2. People are also using it to create on-premise, private clouds. CoreOS on the other side is very much focused on Linux containers (Docker).
