4. OSPC (open source private cloud)
• OSPC is an open source private cloud based on
OpenStack that Intel IT has developed. OSPC
demonstrates how enterprises can secure and
manage a private cloud based on open source
software by taking advantage of Intel
technologies such as TXT and Power Node
Manager. In addition to enabling OpenStack
exploit the advanced capabilities of Intel-based
platforms, OSPC provides a web-based
interface that allows users/administrators
manage a virtualization environment based on
multiple hypervisors including Xen and ESX

5. Research Approach
• Open Source: Use open source software to build completely
functional private Cloud
• Broad Collaboration: Work together with 4 Intel platform groups
and leverage server and DC component solutions from other groups
• Test Bed and Research: Build a test bed, focus on innovations,
and validate research and innovative ideas on test bed
• Useful Prototype: Implement a full open source private cloud with
extensive features, ready for real user trials
• Enterprise POCs and Usage Studies: Evaluate Open Source
Private Cloud, study potential IT usages of OSPC, and carry out real
user trials
