(Telecompaper) Intel has announced the Intel Cloud for All initiative to accelerate enterprise cloud adoption by making public, private and hybrid cloud solutions easier to deploy. Through a series of investments and collaborations in the cloud software ecosystem, Intel believes the initiative will help businesses take advantage of the cloud benefits to deliver new capabilities and digital services, leading to tens of thousands of new cloud deployments. Intel Cloud for All will focus on software defined infrastructure (SDI) solutions, optimising them to deliver efficient clouds based on Intel technology across a range of workloads, and aligning the industry through open industry standards, solutions and routes to market to accelerate cloud deployment. As a key part of this initiative, Intel has announced a new collaboration with Rackspace, the co-founder and leading operator of the OpenStack open source cloud software platform. Intel and Rackspace will establish the OpenStack Innovation Center to focus on driving enterprise features and scale optimisations into the OpenStack source code. The innovation centre will feature the world's largest OpenStack developer cloud, consisting of two 1,000-node clusters that will be available to the OpenStack community to support advanced, large-scale testing of OpenStack performance, code and new features. These testing clusters are expected to be available within the next six months.
