How open source projects build cloud computing

For Linux manufacturers Red Hats, cloud computing is not a specific project, is a combination of many open source projects.
　　
　　
Scottcrenshaw, vice president and manager of the Red Hat cloud computing business, said, "There is a reason for the naming of cloud computing foundations." Improving the evolution of IT infrastructure is an ongoing process that you have never really done. "
　　
Crenshaw points out that cloud computing includes virtualization and management infrastructure as well as automation. As companies gain more experience with virtualization, they need and want to continue to expand. Finally, the cloud computing base extends to 65 open source projects. Open source projects will span multiple domains, from application management to virtual machine management, to platform Deltacloud that allow multiple vendors to manage cloud computing. He stressed that the cloud computing base is comprehensive and open.
　　
Red Hat is not the only open-source vendor that drives cloud computing technology. The open source cloud infrastructure platform, OpenStack, was originally developed by NASA and hosting service provider Rackspacehosting.
　　
"We have contributed more to the number and breadth of code than we have seen others see." We've given a lot of help to other participants and end users. "
　　
At the upcoming Red Hat Summit, Red Hat Engineers will provide more details about 65 unrelated projects to help provide cloud computing capabilities, Crenshaw said.
　　
and the Open source project is the key to the Red Hat cloud computing base, as early as November 2010, Red Hat acquired the cloud computing tool supplier Makara. Makara technology enables organizations to deploy applications in the cloud to meet demand directives that scale up or fall.
　　
"When we bought Makara, we said we were going to keep this technology open," Crenshaw said. At the same time he pointed out that Makara enhanced the other open source projects being carried out by Red Hat. The Red Hat team is developing a product that combines Makara and red Hat technology.
　　
When it comes to deployment in the cloud, Crenshaw says there are still many challenges. Understanding the categories of work that can be deployed to the cloud is an important one. "It takes a long time for the customer to understand the choice and deployment technology." "2011, Crenshaw wants to see some really good product deployments that can take advantage of the experience that customers have gained." "Migrating to the cloud is a process that is the evolution of an enterprise IT architecture." ”
