OpenStack provides the same facility as EC2 but on your own hardware, so they don't really touch. Glance (the image store componet of OpenStack) can use S3 for storage, but I don't think it's a good idea unless you have a a really fast pipe to Amazon and deep pockets to pay transfer fees. Perhaps others have different opinions on that point (caveat: I haven't actually tried impeneting this that way) You can use some of the same tools to manage instances on both since OpenStack provides an EC2 compatible API (I've used euca2ools and hybridfox with both). -Jon _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
