OpenStack isn't perfect, for sure. Huge community, big corporate players, huge code base. I do feel the barrier to entry into the community is very high; using the stack is not a small undertaking, particularly in a production capacity. The APIs are mess, but I have high hopes that the new OpenStack SDK will bring some ease of use to the stack that boto has done for AWS. Overall, even though I feel like a reasonably competent coder with a lot of experience as a user, I don't feel like I could ever contribute to the project in a meaningful way - and I don't think I want to. Working at an Openstack cofounder, I do have a lot of code deployed into an OpenStack cloud, and have written a lot of automation around the stack and APIs. I still have high hopes for the platform. |
