    The Canonical Distribution of Ubuntu OpenStack
    Canonical has announced a new OpenStack-oriented distribution. "Based on Canonical’s industry-leading OpenStack reference architecture and building on Ubuntu’s leading position as the most widely used OpenStack platform, the Canonical Distribution gives users the widest range of commercially-supported vendor options for storage, software-defined networking and hypervisor from Canonical and its OpenStack partners. It then automates the creation and management of a reference OpenStack based on those choices."

    Note that some conditions apply: "The Canonical Distribution of Ubuntu OpenStack is now available as a public beta, free for up to 10 physical and 10 virtual machines." See this page for more information.
