The "immaturity" being exposed here has nothing to do with neither stability nor bugs - in fact the angle is more about an ease of deployment.
Such statements are not new, and well known from "enterprises" point of view.
I remember same articles about Linux, few years back about Zimbra, few months back about proxmox, etc...

This is an endless statement : "Is it possible for a community-driven project to find it's place in business needs ?" The answer for Openstack is NO, when it comes to ease of deployment compared to VMmware, and any CLI-less required installers...
But even if fantastic progress has been made, on the different projects, let's face it, even more progress are required today to give a satisfaction to the OP.

Let's keep working as we are doing : fixing, testing, thinking, updating. 
When all the projects will be stable enough to work on a same level - I'm quite confident we could see more positives feedbacks from Gartner

It depends on what you expect OpenStack to do for you. If you want
pre-packaged, click-to-install software, it is not there, yet. But if
you want to be able to influence the future of the project you want to
bet your business on, you have a much higher chance of doing that with
OpenStack than with other projects in this space.

Just my $.02 worth.

Hi everyone,

According to the statement of this article from Gartner
group http://blogs.gartner.com/lydia_leong/2012/04/03/citrix-cloudstack-openstack-and-the-war-for-open-source-clouds/ Openstack is a
highly immature platform.
But why? What's make Openstack so immature?

Any comments on that?

Thank you in advance :)
