The bwCloud-OS infrastructure

The bwCloud-OS (Gen2) infrastructure represents the second generation of bwCloud-OS: Based on the experience and insights gained with the first bwCloud-OS environment, the infrastructure was redesigned and rebuilt. The current environment is primarily geared toward the requirements and demands of users:

• Scalable and flexible: Whether computing power or storage capacity, both can be upgraded individually and independently of each other.
• Easy to use: The proven principle of “self-service functionality” is even better supported with the latest OpenStack versions.
• Significantly greater resources: To cope with the rush on our environment, the second generation of bwCloud-OS has been massively expanded. Currently, over 100 compute nodes and more than 3000 TB (gross) of storage space are available.

With the current state project “bwCloud 3,” this state service is being renewed on the infrastructure side (bwCloud-OS (Gen3)) and expanded to include additional services (project duration until August 31, 2027). Likewise, the state service bwCloud-OS will be converted into a self-financed service in this third generation.
