We developed a website using Rackspace OpenStack. We then had to figure out how to configure it using Jenkins, so we had to write the shell scripts. And the whole purpose of it was to show that we could update the website to the live website on the server and show that we could push updated staff from the Git repository.

Rackspace OpenStack is more suitable for enterprises that are looking for private cloud solutions and who are thinking of offloading some of their auxiliary workloads from the public cloud and saving money. Rackspace OpenStack can fit in that use case where enterprises are thinking of a hybrid model of the cloud. We are a product and solutions company that builds a private cloud infrastructure based on Rackspace OpenStack for our customers. We are not a system integrator. We provide the product and solutions on top of Rackspace OpenStack.

OpenStack is a cloud provider with several vendors, which have all been used.

I primarily use it for personal use inside an enterprise. I use it to deploy a private cloud. 

Our primary use case for the OpenStack is for migrating data from the cloud to on-premises. We want to migrate some of the open source OpenStack components to customize our work with our applications. Our main use is video streaming on Openstack.

OpenStack was needed to integrate an eCommerce site's pictures with Akamai cloud services.
