2014. Mirantis gets $100M funding to become enterprise OpenStack leader



Commercial OpenStack distribution provider Mirantis has recently secured $100 million in Series B funding. OpenStack, known as an open source platform for infrastructure as a service deployment, serves as the foundation for Mirantis' ambitions. Much like Red Hat's relationship with Enterprise Linux, Mirantis aims to become the leading corporate representative for OpenStack. However, the competition in the enterprise OpenStack market is intense, with major players such as HP, IBM, Cisco, and Red Hat vying for a share. Interestingly, Red Hat recently announced its transition from client-server to cloud computing, with a specific focus on OpenStack, further intensifying the competition. Mirantis' significant funding injection will likely be crucial in establishing its presence and success in this competitive landscape.




2014. Mirantis offers OpenStack-based private cloud as a service



OpenStack, the open cloud platform, presents a significant challenge when it comes to installation and setup for many companies. Mirantis aims to address this issue with OpenStack Express, a solution that allows companies, and even individuals without extensive IT expertise, to effortlessly order and deploy a private OpenStack implementation and pay for it based on usage. While there are other players in the OpenStack private cloud market, such as Rackspace, HP, Red Hat, and more, Mirantis stands out due to its extensive experience in deploying OpenStack for clients. Originally functioning as a systems integrator, Mirantis eventually ventured into offering its own OpenStack distribution. By packaging their expertise in a user-friendly manner, Mirantis provides a significant advantage to users seeking an easily consumable OpenStack solution.
