summary
OpenStack claims a living footprint: a user survey reports 40 million CPU cores (up from 25M year-over-year) with multiple orgs running >1M‑core deployments (LINE, Walmart Labs, China Mobile). Adoption grows around digital sovereignty, edge and hybrid use cases and integrations like LOKI (OpenStack + Kubernetes). Concrete wins include a Guam gaming cloud, EDF recycling retired supercomputers into HPC/public cloud, and Leaf Cloud’s heat‑reclaim datacenters; studies show repatriation cuts cloud spend ~33–50%.
