Per usual, Rackspace is about 18 steps behind everyone else

They were Openstack since the beginning. When did they go to VMWare?

Why would a company have 40,000 VMs?! The scale of computing resources is always astronomically different to what I think a service would need.

.... You do realize that they still have hundreds of thousands of VMs in their OpenStack services? Those are VMs too.
Hell back in 2008 Slicehost had more than 40k VMs before Rackspace bought em.
Wait till you hear about places like AWS or Azure....

Different groups selling different things. OpenStack still around, albeit a shell of it's former scale

The article specifically states rackspace are only moving 50 VMs.
The client moving 40,000 is unnamed.
