[openstack-community] qyjohn's Y13Q3 quarterly report of the size and health of the 4 open source cloud systems
by Mark Atwood 03 Oct '13

03 Oct '13

Hi! Each quarter, Qingye Jiang, an employee of Eucalyptus, publishes a report of the community and contribution metrics of OpenStack, OpenNebula, Eucalyptus, and CloudStack. He has just published his report for Y13Q3: http://www.eucalyptus.com/blog/2013/10/03/cy13-q3-community-analysis-%E2%80… Since his report last quarter, he has been collecting more metrics from git commit history, and also I think he is gathering in more data sets of discussion forums. Short summary of OpenStack’s position: OpenStack is still in the lead and accelerating. However, CloudStack is also still accelerating and growing fast. We are far and away best at bringing in new contributors. ..m -- Mark Atwood <mark.atwood(a)hp.com> Director of Open Source Engagement for HP Cloud & OpenStack +1-206-473-7118 On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 11:47 AM, Atwood, Mark <mark.atwood(a)hp.com> wrote: > Hi! > > > > Each quarter, Qingye Jiang, an employee of Eucalyptus, publishes a report of > the community and contribution metrics of OpenStack, OpenNebula, Eucalyptus, > and CloudStack.
