5. Our success stories
Mirantis has worked with Cisco to help accelerate technical uptake of
OpenStack, to integrate infrastructure with key Cisco service
offerings, and to deliver implementations of compute and network
interoperability code contributed to the OpenStack Project as part of
the recent releases.
With expertise from Mirantis, Huawei built a self-service cloud that
allows engineers to provision, configure, deploy and decommission
servers in the cloud without relying on IT.
Mirantis worked with Internap to integrate and implement an
innovative commercial cloud service, with leading edge high-
performance, on-demand provisioning and scaling – all free of
proprietary platform lock-in.
