OpenStack 'Rocky' Press Coverage Highlights
by Lauren Sell 05 Sep '18

05 Sep '18

Hello, Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Rocky release! It was a great milestone for the community, and we received positive press coverage last week. During the Rocky cycle, we highlighted improvements to Ironic, which enable the OpenStack ecosystem to offer bare metal, virtual machines and containers in one platform, and also positions OpenStack bare metal clouds as a strong underlying infrastructure option for Kubernetes. In terms of container support, another milestone we achieved during the Rocky cycle was getting Magnum certified as a Kubernetes installer. We also highlighted work to improve upgrades, as well as emerging projects including Cyborg (lifecycle management for hardware accelerators), Qinling (serverless functions for OpenStack clouds) and Masakari (HA). We were also able to include a strong user quote in the press release: "At Oath, OpenStack manages hundreds of thousands of bare metal compute resources in our data centers. We have made significant changes to our supply chain process using OpenStack, fulfilling common bare metal quota requests within minutes,” said James Penick, IaaS Architect at Oath. “We're looking forward to deploying the Rocky release to take advantage of its numerous enhancements such as BIOS management, which will further streamline how we maintain, manage and deploy our infrastructure." Please join us in promoting OpenStack Rocky within your organizations and communities.
