The cheapest OpenStack cloud

I'm doing marketing research about the topic.
Which companies are well-known and give good price?

    Jokes again? :)
    You can officially ask about Humorist tag ;)

  • Unfortunately, the requirements for humorist tag are alot more strict than a providers tag. Anyways it's a moot point as I consistently fail Part A : "Be funny".

    without checking to confirm these are all openstack ... all are low price and high quality hourly-billed lowend cloud-providing badasses:

    • IntoVPS
    • Lunanode
    • RamNode

    EDIT2:

    OpenStack confirmed. Also might check DigitalOcean and DreamHost for more options at a slightly higher price-point

  • As @uptime reports, there's IntoVPS and RamNode, similar pricing for alternative specs.

    IntoVPS 2GB RAM, 20GB SSD - $5
    RamNode 1GB RAM, 25GB SSD - $5

    For your research, finish the question. Give a good price for what?

    And just to note various recent deals on LET (promotional pricing?) have also yielded a $3/m price point for 512 mb ram kvm from intoVPS and RamNode - and a standard $3.50/m offer from Lunanode.

    All of these providers offer houtly billing.

    Lunanode is also notable for providing some additional cloudiness such as HA-proxy instances for load balancing, monitoring, also DNS and email. (I have yet to compare notes regarding possible availability of any similar "next-level" features from intoVPS and RamNode...)

  • What's the difference between "openstack" and "cloud"?

    "cloud" is a marketing buzzword with various definitions, generally invoking some concept of (potential) redundancy and on-demand scalability - primarily of the horizontal but possibly also of the vertical persuasion.

    OpenStack is an open source implementation flavor thereof.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenStack

    OpenStack began in 2010 as a joint project of Rackspace Hosting and NASA. As of 2016, it is managed by the OpenStack Foundation, a non-profit corporate entity established in September 2012 to promote OpenStack software and its community. More than 500 companies have joined the project.
