Mirantis,
the pure-play OpenStack company, today made operating a private cloud
easier with the release of Mirantis OpenStack 9.0. Based on the Mitaka
Openstack release, Mirantis OpenStack 9.0 includes a rich set of
features to simplify lifecycle management of OpenStack.
"The improvements in Mirantis OpenStack 9.0 are based on real-world
production deployments of Mirantis OpenStack, including our
collaborations with AT&T and Volkswagen," said Boris Renski,
co-founder and CMO of Mirantis. "The improvements we made - largely in
the area of post-deployment operations - integrate Mirantis' services
expertise into the software so that we can deliver better business
outcomes. Mirantis OpenStack 9.0 will be a valuable asset to Mirantis as
we help customers build and operate private clouds."
OpenStack Mitaka
is the 13th OpenStack release, and was built by a community of 2,336
developers, operators and users from 345 organizations. Mirantis had 327
Mitaka committers (ranked No. 1), 87 core contributors (ranked No. 1),
resolved 3,700+ bugs (ranked No. 1), contributed 1.37 million lines of
code (ranked No. 1) and conducted 52,000+ reviews (ranked No. 1).
Enhancements to Fuel,
the OpenStack management software project, simplify the task of
operating private OpenStack clouds. Cloud operators can use Fuel to
scale the cloud up or down, selectively make changes to their
configuration, and deploy new functionality to an existing cloud, such
as Murano, a self-service application orchestration and catalog.
Additionally, operators of large-scale infrastructure can now export
Fuel configuration values into 3rd party configuration management tools.
StackLight,
the purpose-built tooling for logging, monitoring and alerting of
OpenStack, will continue to assist operators in maximizing their private
cloud uptime.
Additional enhancements make it easier to run high performance workloads
in OpenStack. Improvements to network function virtualization
infrastructure (NFVI) performance include features such as SR-IOV, DPDK,
NUMA CPU pinning, and huge pages. Improvements were also made to
application and service orchestration with TOSCA and validations for big
data were performed with Cloudera and Hortonworks.
