AppHub is a factory and a marketplace allowing open-source software vendors to easily publish software assets for seamless deployment to any OpenStack infrastructure, and ISV consumers to discover and install trustworthy software in the Cloud. The presentation will cover how AppHub eases the continuous configuration and deployment of enterprise applications and how it helps vendors reach out to the market. A live demonstration of the platform, from asset cataloguing to packaging, advertising and deploying, will cover the benefits of AppHub for OSS producers, OpenStack users and Cloud providers. AppHub is a project bringing together OW2, UShareSoft and Fraunhofer Fokus. AppHub is supported by the European Commission.
