7. @CLOUD_OPINION
Why HP buying EUCA is huge
Instead of replying via multiple tweets, I thought I would articulate why I think this is huge
and is currently in awe of whoever is running HP strategy. Its a short post.
Things EUCA focused on and did well:
1. Interoperability with AWS — this was their differentiator
2. Simple to get started — one line install and minutes to get started
3. Product Focus — they stayed focused and executed well on
delivering a product.

• Hardening the central functionality
• The voice of customers and users
• Tight design & serious systems engineering
• OpenStack can and will have add-ons, adjuncts and alternative
projects (Ceph, RiakCS, Midonet, etc.) – and the aim of
Eucalyptus is to become one.
