PayPal Denies Reports That it Will Replace VMware with OpenStack
Amidst recent reports that PayPal and its parent company eBay will replace its VMware software with OpenStack, the former has denied the claims stating that it currently has no intention of changing its servers to open source software.
The senior vice president of cloud infrastructure at VMware, Bogomil Balkansky, said that claims were completely false. He said: "Our relationship with eBay and PayPal is a partnership we're proud of, and a great example of the role VMware plays in both typical customer environments and in a bleeding-edge cloud development initiative."
