Open source strikes a challenge for people to approach things in an innovative way, look for solutions that are outside the traditional box, and doing so in a collaborative environment where transparency is the most significant asset. If you have questions about open source or OpenStack private cloud adoption within your organization, then this discussion will help with some of those understandings.
