Faronics Deep Freeze vs. Canonical OpenStack

Deep Freeze is a system restore software solution that preserves computer configurations by returning systems to a predefined state upon restart. It falls under the category of endpoint management and reboot‑to‑restore software, designed for IT administrators managing shared or public‑access computers. Deep Freeze is commonly used in educational institutions, libraries, corporate training environments and other settings where devices are accessed by multiple users. The software functions by 'freezing' the desired system configuration.

Canonical’s OpenStack on Ubuntu gives you the flexibility to place your OpenStack services exactly where you want them, while sharing all the operational code with a large community.
