An Open Source Cloud Platform is an open source cloud computing platform that provides open source cloud infrastructure services.
- AKA: Open Source Cloud, OSS Cloud Platform, Open Cloud Platform.
- Context:
- It can typically enable Open Source Cloud Deployment through open source cloud orchestration tools.
- It can typically provide Open Source Cloud API through open source cloud interface standards.
- It can typically support Open Source Cloud Customization through open source cloud source code access.
- It can typically facilitate Open Source Cloud Community Contribution through open source cloud development models.
- It can typically ensure Open Source Cloud Transparency through open source cloud audit capability.
- ...
- It can often integrate Open Source Cloud Components through open source cloud modular architecture.
- It can often enable Open Source Cloud Migration through open source cloud portability features.
- It can often support Open Source Cloud Federation through open source cloud interoperability standards.
- It can often provide Open Source Cloud Cost Advantage through open source cloud licensing models.
- ...
- It can range from being a Minimal Open Source Cloud Platform to being an Enterprise Open Source Cloud Platform, depending on its open source cloud deployment scale.
- It can range from being a Single-Node Open Source Cloud Platform to being a Multi-Region Open Source Cloud Platform, depending on its open source cloud geographic distribution.
- It can range from being a Community Open Source Cloud Platform to being a Commercial Open Source Cloud Platform, depending on its open source cloud support model.
- It can range from being a IaaS-Focused Open Source Cloud Platform to being a Full-Stack Open Source Cloud Platform, depending on its open source cloud service scope.
- ...
- It can integrate with Open Source Cloud Monitoring System for open source cloud observability.
- It can connect to Open Source Cloud Storage System for open source cloud data persistence.
- It can interface with Open Source Cloud Network System for open source cloud connectivity.
- It can communicate with Open Source Cloud Security System for open source cloud protection.
- It can synchronize with Open Source Cloud Orchestration System for open source cloud automation.
- ...
- Example(s):
- Counter-Example(s):
- Proprietary Cloud Platforms, which use closed source code rather than open source cloud transparency.
- Managed Cloud Services, which provide hosted services rather than open source cloud self-hosting capability.
- On-Premise Software Systems, which lack cloud computing characteristics of open source cloud platforms.
