We need faster
rollout of servicesThat’ll cost you
How much?I can’t say
Isn’t there unused
capacity on systems
we paid for?
Possibly, but it’s
all part of a virtual
pool of servers
I’d rather pay by
user
Not going

Importance of
Foundation
• No single point of control
• Long term stability
• Transparent governance
• Open development
History
• Provide components for Infrastructure-as-a-Service
• Started by Rackspace and NASA in July 2010
• Today: more than 192 companies involved in the
OpenStack ecosystem, including SUSE and Dell
• Foundation created in 2012
• Eight releases so far:
• Austin, Bexar, Cactus, Diablo, Essex, Folsom, Grizzly
• Next release: Havana, October 2013

Webinar Series

11. Project Principles and
Design Tenets
Principles
Open development model
‒ All code is freely available
‒ Licensed under the
Apache 2.0 License
Open design process
‒ Blueprints
‒ Design Summit every
6 months to gather
requirements and write
specifications for next
release
Open community
Basic Design Tenets
1. Scalability and elasticity are our main goals
2. Any feature that limits our main goals must be optional
3. Everything should be asynchronous
• If you can't do it async, see #2
4. All required components must be horizontally scalable
5. Always use shared nothing architecture or sharding
6. Distribute everything, especially logic
• Move logic to where state naturally exists
7. Accept eventual consistency
8. Test everything
• We require tests with submitted code
