OpenMetal, an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) provider, has announced the expansion of its cloud services to Europe via a data center footprint in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This move allows OpenMetal to introduce its On-Demand Private Clouds, built on OpenStack, to new European customers, as well as companies looking for a European presence.
This new presence will be within a three-story, purpose-built facility that offers redundancy and financial grade standard and incremental multi-tier security measures. The data center facility is also home to three of the world’s largest internet exchanges, and is close to several key undersea cable landing stations.

“For decades, Europe has been a leader in open source development,” said Todd Robinson, President of OpenMetal. “We are excited to open in the EU as OpenMetal was built to simplify access to the top open source cloud system, OpenStack. Customers will now be able to spin up private cloud resources in 45 seconds just like in our US data centers.”
OpenMetal’s expansion to Europe directly supports its mission to make open source systems like OpenStack on-demand more easily accessible. Today, the European market has more than 3 million contributing open source developers, with the Netherlands among the fastest growing.
