Shortfacts - April 2016


OpenStack extension
NetApp has released Manila File Share as a Service as a production-ready OpenStack feature. The Manila open source project, founded by NetApp, enables companies to easily build or expand a cloud-enabled data center for business-critical applications and content management applications.
Users can now also support big data storage and test environments in which data is moved flexibly across different clouds. Another novelty: Manila now enables free exchange between public and private clouds.
