The document discusses CoprHD, an open source software-defined storage controller that automates storage provisioning across heterogeneous storage infrastructure. It summarizes CoprHD's key capabilities in automating storage lifecycle management and integrating with cloud stacks like OpenStack. The document also provides an overview of CoprHD architecture and describes how CoprHD can operate as a Cinder driver within OpenStack. It outlines CoprHD's interoperability with OpenStack through different integration methods and concludes with information on the CoprHD community.
