OpenStack Autopilot
The quickest and easiest way to install and manage Ubuntu OpenStack is to use Canonical’s OpenStack Autopilot. You can try OpenStack Autopilot for free, but you need to purchase Ubuntu Advantage and Landscape on-premises when you use more than 10 machines.
| Price | |
|---|---|
| Up to ten machines | Free |
| Annually, per server | $1,500 |
Landscape on-premises server
If you’d prefer a server on premises running behind your firewall, Landscape can be installed on private hardware. This is functionally identical to the SaaS, but you control the hardware. Requires all the desktops, servers and nodes it manages to have either an Ubuntu Advantage or Landscape seat.
| Price | |
|---|---|
| Landscape on-premises server | $2,000 |
BootStack fully managed OpenStack Cloud
Let us build, operate and support your OpenStack Cloud. Available as a cost per server per day or per VM per hour.
