"After evaluating multiple competing technologies on which to deploy OpenStack, we determined that VMware infrastructure would provide the best enterprise-class capabilities to meet our needs," said Laurence Vandeyar, senior systems engineer at TradeStation Technologies, Inc. "With VMware vSphere, we're able to do vMotion, DRS and easy failover, and VMware NSX supports true three-tier Web application development. The combination of Heat orchestration for OpenStack, vSphere, and VMware NSX provides a solution that will give us the most value."
