There really should be a good three or so viable projects in any given space. The way some people talk it's like they really really want no choice in the matter.
Sometimes one size fits all cannot cover an entire market.
Also, specifically, OpenStack is servicable for some things, but it is far from perfect and has real limitations. For most openstack users the limitations are no big deal, but the limitations can be a dealbreaker for some scenarios. It has a lot of hype and attention behind it, moreso than
I'm sorry, but Openstack is nothing but a joke. A bunch of bureaucratic programmers who are more interested in their own wet dreams rather than doing something real. And clearly run by managers who have absolutely NO idea of how to do software development.
These guys basically have been given a bunch of money without any expectations of delivery of a product. There's NO testing on this crap, the documentation is poor, and constantly out of sync with the product (just take a look at the silly authentication e
Ubuntu is for Windows weenies, and not serious systems people. Just take a look at the installation, where you are expected to answer questions halfway through the middle of the install! No, that's NOT how to do things, and it's a sign of worse nonsense to come.
If you don't know how to automate the installation, you should probably sit down and keep quite. There are people who do, are, and are using it to deploy an OpenStack Cloud. They're doing it on far more machines than the handful you are, too.

It's a pretty simple concept. If that's too hard to understand, try reading more slowly.
