Still confused on how VMware software works with OpenStack?  This lightboard series on VMware + OpenStack is just what you need.  From basic 101 level content to deeper dives discussing NSX integration, these videos will help you understand how VMware technologies can enhance and stabilize an OpenStack deployment.

If you are fairly new to the OpenStack and not new to VMware, I would suggest starting with these first three videos to help level set on OpenStack as a technology decision

If you want to get a more in-depth understanding of how vSphere, NSX, and vSphere datastores work in the context of OpenStack, here is the playlist
