OpenStack, launched by Rackspace and NASA in 2010, has evolved to address the growing demands for cloud solutions, particularly in light of recent VMware licensing changes. The OpenStack Foundation, rebranded as the Open Infrastructure Foundation, is joining the Linux Foundation, positioning itself alongside other significant projects like Kubernetes. This collaboration aims to enhance the open-source ecosystem as enterprises increasingly seek robust alternatives. The changing landscape emphasizes the importance of open-source solutions in managing data centers effectively.
"The data center infrastructure market is undergoing a fundamental reinvention, driven by the colossal demands of AI as well as virtualization migration and digital sovereignty."
"With this, three of the world's largest and most active open-source projects (Linux, Kubernetes and OpenStack), now fall under the Linux Foundation umbrella."
