We believe that OpenStack serves the market best by supporting the most popular PaaS solutions and giving enterprise customers maximum choice, rather than prescribing a specific PaaS.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam Ramji, chief executive officer of Cloud Foundry said: \u201cMirantis and the OpenStack community are doing important work at the infrastructure level of the stack.
