Exoscale: a swiss cloud provider built with Apache Cloudstack

This is the talk I gave at the CloudStack Collaboration Conference Europe 2013 held in Amsterdam.

It focuses on why we have chosen CloudStack as the core component of our Open Cloud product line and our vision on how users can leverage standard API interfaces to better deploy and reduce the time between Application need and Application running.
