OpenStack is an open source cloud computing platform that provides infrastructure as a service. It offers compute, storage, networking and dashboard services through its APIs. While OpenStack and VMware serve different purposes, many VMware admins are shifting to learn OpenStack due to business needs for agile development, continuous integration systems, and cloud applications. Training in OpenStack helps admins understand why and how to use it as well as what services it offers to build out a federated cloud infrastructure.
