This document discusses enabling simplification and choice in OpenStack. It notes that software is eating the world and businesses need to innovate, automate, and simplify or risk falling behind. The document advocates for making OpenStack easier to deploy and use through automation, interoperability testing of hardware and software combinations, and providing options and models for OpenStack deployments. It provides an example of how telecommunications companies can simplify NFV architectures using OpenStack, SDN, and automation tools.
