Memset joins OpenStack Passport Programme

Today in Sydney, the OpenStack Public Cloud Passport programme was launched, a collaboration between OpenStack public cloud providers from around the globe, and the OpenStack Foundation. It is an initiative offering potential users free trials of OpenStack public clouds, so they can better understand the benefits it offers them, as well as finding the provider that is most suitable.

Our free trial offers customers a fully featured 14-day experience on our Cloud IaaS platform.
