InternationalWhat exactly is OpenStack?
OpenStack is fundamentally a collection of open-source components and services in addition to software tools that allow organisations to build out and manage automated cloud infrastructure. This can be achieved by deploying both public and private clouds. Additionally, it has customisable resources with on-demand network access for mission-critical workloads.
A highly consultative approach
Determining hardware and module requirements for your OpenStack private cloud solution is a highly consultative task. This complex process is driven by workloads and availability requirements.
OpenStack deployments are not traditionally hyper-converged, as such requirements can be individualised for compute and storage very specifically to the clients needs to make the solution scalable but affordable from its inception. For large scale deployments OpenStack is by far one of the most cost-effective IT solutions for computing. Due to the distributed nature or resources it follows a true pay as you grow model.

OpenStack Benefits
As we see a rise in a software-defined economy, this is driving changes in the way that businesses build and maintain their infrastructure whilst they try to uphold compliance regulations and security standards.
OpenStack private cloud solutions are the logical solution to this problem due to the elastic capabilities, highly scalable resources and on-demand services. With access to resource pooling features, measured services, and cost-effective strategies OpenStack is a next-generation technology you need to support your business activities.
The commissioning of a private cloud solution allows for significantly more control over security measures and gives your business the ability to personally deal with the protection of client data. In addition, this type of solution is incredibly resilient to data loss and can tolerate multiple failures, which helps maintain business continuity.
Businesses grow over time and require more infrastructure, OpenStack private cloud becomes the most cost-efficient solution since it does not come with complicated and expensive software licensing schemes and compute and storage nodes can be added to the solution relatively simplistically.
This model allows organisations to deploy a flexible and scalable cloud computing solution with Coreix as their technology partner.
Reducing the total cost of ownership
Organisations are often attracted by the emphasis on a free product which by definition OpenStack is. In the 2019 Escaping OpenStack survey it was stated that 88% of companies reported having teams of over 20 people dedicated to their OpenStack deployments (47% of them reported needing more than 60 people). Coreix manages many OpenStack deployments and has a staff base that can manage your solution too which helps reduce the overall TCO to your business.
HOW MUCH DO THESE SOLUTIONS COST?
The process we go through to specify a new solution for the client is highly consultative, however, before we enter that journey it is important that clients understand the rough costs associated with such enterprise solutions since not all solutions are suitable for all clients and at the lower tiers we can achieve better pricing with alternative technologies.
