Sonian Announces Support for OpenStack Cloud Environments

Sonian's industry leading information archiving and analytics software stack has been successfully deployed on cloud computing environments based on the OpenStack reference architecture.

Innovative open source project supported

OpenStack is an innovative open source project supported by over 110 commercial organizations. OpenStack allows entities with a large number of hardware assets to create a standards-based cloud implementation. OpenStack is a suite of cloud "building blocks" for creating and operating a reliable cloud computing platform at scale and with operational efficiency.

"Sonian is, and has always been, committed to supporting industry standards that help drive open cloud computing environments. This announcement is about bringing additional flexibility to cloud deployments and making it easier for both providers and clients to benefit from the cloud," said Greg Arnette, Sonian's Chief Research Officer.

OpenStack is fully open sourced and available for public inspection. The advantage to using OpenStack to power a cloud computing environment is the tremendous positive reception for the initial release and the power of the open source community to create new innovations.
