Readying OpenStack
Improved security: Security is becoming increasingly necessary as cyber attacks proliferate. Through co-engineering, the native security features of Linux can be extended across an OpenStack environment.
Interoperability: Organizations depend on a range of third party tools and drivers when using OpenStack, and Linux provides the platform to ensure a high level of functionality and certification.
Straight forward support: Dealing with multiple vendors can cause communication and workflow issues, but with an integrated OpenStack and Linux set up, this becomes a non-issue. Instead a single vendor can help to streamline issue resolution.
