Cloudian has been working closely with Red Hat on their OpenStack offerings and certified its integration into OpenStack Horizon, Nova, Glance and Keystone . We provide a scalable capacity storage layer for OpenStack and are the leader in Open Hybrid Cloud – acting as the storage fabric between on-premise data and cloud data. Cloudian is the preferred storage solution for large scale environments, multi datacenter storage, and hybrid cloud tiering.
