@rajraj proof will be in the pudding - lets see it. Open always wins
Sriram (Cloud Don) Subramanian
@rajraj Looking at HP's source code contributions, HP has been a strong contributor consistently
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
indeed.. we have contributed more than 1M lines of code!
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
that is right, I believe we are #2 overall after Rackspace.
HPE Cloud
Does the new Community Edition run the #OpenStack Horizon Dashboard?
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
it is pure OpenStack - all the goodness of OpenStack made easy to consume/deploy!

Jenny Taylor

John Furrier
Jenny nice to see you. Facebook folks are coming on more and more. Twitter dominates bc it's more real time
Peter Rosenberg
Excited ! Can't wait to hear how the 1bn $ HP Cloud investment will be spent !
HPE Cloud
Perhaps I will get a gold plated twitter account :)
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
$1,000,000,000 over two years for R&D :0
Crowd Captain
$1 billion isn't impressive ..what's impressive is $10 billion :-)
John Furrier
What is different than IBM's pledge for $1b ?
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
this is just R&D budget ;)
Strategy180|Gardner
@CrowdCaptain I'll tell that to the state lottery officials... ;-)
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
we have lot of datacenters all over the globe
HPE Cloud
Remember, if you purchase support for the #HPHelion community edition u get full indemnification
Strategy180|Gardner
Support is a prerequisite. Yes, you qualify for indemnification with a support contract.
John Furrier
this is a huge deal so I'm interested in the specifics
Sriram (Cloud Don) Subramanian
@hphelioncloud are there plans to move HP Public Cloud infras to HP Helion Cloud?
John Furrier
This is a great use case
Sriram (Cloud Don) Subramanian
and will boost user confidence
Strategy180|Gardner
Yes. Watch this space.
HPE Cloud
Yes, all #HPHelion solutions will run on our #OpenStack distros including private and public cloud
Crowd Captain
HP should "prime the pump" to show on their infra as a "lighthouse" to bring the other ships.. good move
Amitabh Dey
HP Public Cloud is already on OpenStack! After Rackspace it was the 2nd most biggest Public Cloud on OpenStack. It's already on Helion. Going forward every offering and Cloud initiative will be based on @hphelioncloud
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
to be clear, we announced rebranding to HP Helion Public Cloud yesterday..
Rajmohan Rajagopalan
all of these products will have HP Helion OpenStack as the foundation in the future
Amitabh Dey
And do not forget our Managed Cloud Services by HP Enterprise Services (called as VPC: Virtual Private Cloud) is also going to be transitioned to HP Helion soon. It means, you can have your workloads on HP Helion based private cloud
John Furrier
@AmitabhPancham I think that is great but you have to beat AWS and be enterprise grade; #stuckinthemiddle ?
HPE Cloud
Sorry about the short chat today, I was unable to book our guests longer than 30 minutes but I appreciate your questions and will schedule another chat soon. Or, visit us at the #HP Booth at the #OpenStack Summit
Stuart Miniman
