General Sentiment..
“It seems like that at the last few US events, people were coming to summits to figure out what OpenStack was.
But it seems like everyone here that I talk to is using OpenStack. Some are here to get it more production ready, but they’re using it. They’re committed to it.”
Dave Wright, CEO of storage vendor SolidFire
