53. Why are they interested?
54. 54 Not creating… …just software …just a community …a vendor consortium …hundreds of moderately successful businesses
55. 55 Creating a platform ecosystem in the cloud ‣  This is different than other cloud software ‣  Ultimately creates the most value for everyone involved
56. Platform Ecosystems: How do they work?
57. 57 Platform Ecosystems – The Three Forces INNOVATIVE ECOSYSTEM GLOBAL USER FOOTPRINT TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM
58. 58 Platform Ecosystems – The Three Forces
 Technology Platform ‣  General purpose technology ‣  Extensible system with room for innovation on top, underneath and around the technology platform ‣  Continuous innovation based on user needs
59. 59 Platform Ecosystems – The Three Forces
 Global User Footprint ‣  Massive addressable market ‣  Users who want more than the functionality of the base platform— infinitely more
60. 60 Platform Ecosystems – The Three Forces
 Innovative Ecosystem ‣  Additional capabilities available from many sources ‣  Huge opportunity for competitive businesses
61. 61 Apple 700,000+ apps 106 carriers 400,000,000 devices 113 countries iOS
62. 62 Android 700,000+ apps 95 carriers 44 device makers 500,000,000 devices 104 countries Android
63. 63 Facebook 9,000,000 apps 1,000,000,000+ users 82% non-US & Canada Facebook Developer Platform
64. 64 Microsoft 4,000,000+ apps 330,000,000 in 2011 Windows
65. 65 OpenStack Tools Services Software Private clouds Public clouds OpenStack software
66. 66 Why is this important? Greatest value is in the intersection where the 3 forces meet ‣  Platforms need users & apps/tools to be relevant ‣  Tool ecosystems need widely adopted, innovative platforms ‣  Users need platforms with app/tool support & innovation The biggest each force is, the more value created ‣  Mass creates gravity, gravity pulls in more users, more tools/apps, more developers and the cycle continues ‣  If you ignore any one force, the model collapses The more each force is concentrated toward the core, the stronger the pull for the other forces ‣  The overlap creates greater mass and focus for users and tools/ apps ‣  All three groups need each other to survive in the long run
67. 67 Platform ecosystems develop around massive markets
68. 68 Platform Ecosystems – Markets
 User Footprint Apple iOS, Android ‣  Every smartphone on earth Facebook ‣  Every human on the internet Microsoft ‣  Every PC manufactured
69. 69 Platform Ecosystems – Markets
 User Footprint OpenStack’s Opportunity – Nothing short of changing IT ‣  Every datacenter ‣  Every server ‣  Every network device ‣  Every storage system
70. 70 Platform Ecosystems – Markets
 User Footprint OpenStack’s Opportunity – Nothing short of changing IT ‣  Every datacenter ‣  Every server ‣  Every network device ‣  Every storage system ‣  Every silly cat photo
71. 71 Platform Ecosystems – Markets
 User Footprint Apple iOS, Android ‣  Every smartphone on earth ‣  ~90% market share Facebook ‣  Every human on the internet ‣  ~42% market share Microsoft ‣  Every PC manufactured ‣  ~92% market share. Still.
72. 72 Platform ecosystems develop around massive markets, but have few winners
73. 73 http://www.strategyanalytics.com/default.aspx?mod=reportabstractviewer&a0=8155 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% Android iOS Other Global Marketshare (Q4 2012)
74. 74 What if OpenStack can reach 25%, 50%, 75% of the Datacenter?
75. 75 There is a platform war building around the cloud
76. 76 Amazon is the early leader Tools Services Software Hundreds of thousands of customers Global footprint AWS services Tools Services Software Private clouds Public clouds OpenStack software
77. 77 But the OpenStack footprint is spreading
 Global Footprint Stat AWS 2012 OpenStack 2012 Continents 5 2 Countries 6 6 Cities 9 10 Availability Zones 18 12 Provider Choices 1 8

79. 79 Plus Private Deployments
 Global Footprint
80. 80 OpenStack: How & Why it’s The Rising Stack Open platform ‣  Community driven innovation ‣  Technology accessible in many ways: hourly, appliance, distribution, DIY Empowered users and developers ‣  Deeper engagement from our users and developers ‣  Users like having more control their destiny Broad, global support from companies ‣  Not driven by a single company; no single source ‣  Creates additional work, but also addition power and opportunity ‣  Aggregate investment is huge
