"Rackspace has a clear edge in delivering both managed OpenStack powered private clouds and OpenStack-based public clouds. Using that edge to bridge the gap between dedicated servers and IaaS with this OnMetal offering will expand the range of choices for Rackspace customers," said Carl Brooks, research analyst at the 451.

OnMetal Cloud Servers are currently available in the Rackspace Northern Virginia data center and will become available at other North American data centers later this year. The servers will be available in Rackspace's International regions in 2015.
