Pricing Details
OpenStack is based on a free, open-source pricing model distributed under the Apache 2.0 license, with no fees for the platform itself and potential costs limited to the infrastructure on which it runs or technical support from partners such as OpenInfra or VEXXHOST. The free plan provides full access to all core components for managing computing, storage, and networking, with the ability to deploy the cloud internally or through partners to run OpenStack on public clouds. Paid plans include dedicated support from OpenInfra partners or cloud service providers, as well as consulting services for cloud design, deployment, and management, with integrated backup, disaster recovery, and advanced automation solutions, and the possibility of additional features depending on the partner or provider, making OpenStack a flexible and integrated option for cloud infrastructure management.
