The combination of data security, OpenStack and the strong reputation of Telekom were ultimately decisive for our cooperation.
Maximum flexibility thanks to OpenStack
From NASA project to standard cloud computing platform
Launched as a joint open-source project of the US space agency and the web hoster Rackspace, OpenStack today offers comprehensive, free architecture solutions for your cloud computing. With strong partners such as SUSE Linux GmbH, Hewlett Packard and Red Hat, the ever-growing community offers an extremely flexible cloud operating system with a myriad of components and functions. This open standard allows you to integrate your IT projects and infrastructures into the Open Telekom Cloud with maximum ease.

Your benefits with OpenStack
Place your trust in a future-proof standard
Consisting of a variety of partners ranging from established IT corporations to young and agile start-ups, the enormous and still growing OpenStack community continuously drives forward the development of the cloud operating system. As at January 2019, OpenStack has grown to more than 96,000 developers and over 20 million lines of code. You can therefore benefit from a future-proof and solid structure that grows with market requirements and allows you to work without having to worry about downtimes in the years to come.


Stay flexible without vendor lock-in
If a cloud provider saves your customer data, product information or financial details with a certain technology and thereby makes it difficult to switch to another, this is known as vendor lock-in. With OpenStack this effect is minimized, enabling you to switch between providers quickly using standard interfaces.
Also available for your dedicated hardware
With the Hybrid Solution, the Open Telekom Cloud offers a private cloud component based on the same OpenStack software as the public cloud. This means that you can expand tried-and-tested cloud resources to your dedicated hardware and benefit from the associated services. In doing so, you can complement existing infrastructures in your company or create your own private cloud.
