Haiti is again at particular risk from this, as more than 60% of the country has hillside slopes greater than 20%. Finally, weak institutional capacity and financial resources limit Haitiâs ability to coordinate effective responses to natural disasters and to take sufficient adaptation measures.
What is OpenStack? OpenStack is an open source cloud computing software platform. OpenStack consists of projects that control pools of storage, computing and networking resources throughout a data center. This data center can be managed through a web-based interface, command-line tools, or through a REST API.
Nova is the primary computing engine behind OpenStack. It is used for deploying and managing large numbers of virtual machines and other instances to handle computing tasks. Swift is a storage system for objects and files. Rather than the traditional idea of a referring to files by their location on a disk drive, developers can instead refer to a unique identifier referring to the file or piece of information and let OpenStack decide where to store this information.
