Can someone give me a brief overview of what HP Helion Rack is?

Deborah Martin
It is a pre-configured, pre-tuned, and pre-tested private cloud solution based on OpenStack

Steve Collins
Yes, it includes a rack about half full of DL360 and DL380 Gen9 servers configured appropriately for the various OpenStack roles, plus the rack infrastructure (switches, PDUs, etc.).

@stevec467 Is the version of OpenStack the HP Helion OpenStack Community Edition or full edition we sell?

Ernesto Pellegrino
Similar solution to the HP ConvergedSystem 700 for Virtualization? http://www8.hp.com/u...

Deborah Martin
We have also baked in a lot of best practices we have learned from running our own OpenStack-based public cloud and contributing to OpenStack technology

Steve Collins
It includes HP Helion OpenStack 1.1 (full version, not Community Edition), plus Helion Dev Platform.

Ernesto Pellegrino
Concepts are similar? Pre-configured, tuned, and tested?

John Furrier
what's new and what's recycled converged systems tech?

Deborah Martin
@vmugonline Helion Rack is an integrated solution like CloudSystem but Helion Rack is focused and designed for cloud native app use cases specifically

John Furrier
@deborahlmartin what is new technology?

John Furrier
@furrier I mean are you cobbling together other stuff from other groups and what is new never seen before product

Steve Collins
@furrier A key defference is that each node/server has been configured/tuned specifically for the role it places in the Helion OpenStack infrastructure.
