The best solution for the data processing and other Cloud operations acceleration software which allows data import from other various tools and the production of different operations reports using this Micros Focus platform is amazing. Data analytics which the solution offers are the best and quickly generated and the best cost management product.

Need to get an application up and running, then I would say the open stack is a great place to test it out. Why spend time setting things up when you can let them do it for you? Many people also have experience with using Rackspace in some capacity so its an easier learning curve for many people.

  • Support does not seem to be what it use to be, use to be a solid 10 when dealing with them, now more like an 8
  • Pricing can be tricky to figure out
  • For some people too many options.

I looked into going with Amazon EC2, was very comparable in pricing, services, options, etc. and a bit cheaper too. Why I did not go with Amazon mainly has to do with knowing Rackspace and being familiar with them. It was easier for me to use a Rackspace product then go with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud

Rackspace
  • Quick setup allowed me to work on the application not setup of where it was going to run
  • Expand ability with a few clicks was a great help, no worrying about if I needed more "power", few clicks and I had it.
  • Tech support is hit or miss so that can be problematic and that was cause for concern and took time away from development
