HP Education Services Monthly Update
Volume VII, Issue 11
Cloud offers the promise of a new era—and a new style of IT. Both in the cloud
and beyond, open standards lead the way to effective, innovative solutions.
With OpenStack technology, HP defines a critical path for creating sound
IT investments for an open, agile, secure environment that scales quickly and
easily. HP Helion OpenStack—a commercial distribution built on OpenStack
technology—provides an enterprise grade cloud platform to help you build,
manage and consume hybrid clouds.
Let HP Education Services be your trusted training partner when it comes to
training for OpenStack (vendor neutral) and HP Helion OpenStack (HP specific).
