CloudStack vs OpenStack

CloudStack
Apache CloudStack is an open source cloud management platform for delivering Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) in cloud computing environments. CloudStack is being developed to help managed service providers and enterprise IT departments create and operate public cloud, private cloud or hybrid clouds with capabilities equivalent to Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2).  

OpenStack
OpenStack is an open source infrastructure as a service (IaaS) initiative for creating and managing large groups of virtual private servers in a data center. 

CloudStack vs OpenStack
CloudStack: Running on hyervisors like KVN, vSphere, XenServer, and now Hyper-V, CloudStack is an open-source cloud management platform designed for creating, controlling, and deploying various cloud services. With its growing API-supported stack, CloudStack already fully supports the Amazon AWS API model.

OpenStack: Managed by the OpenStack foundation, the actual platform consists of multiple interrelated stack-based projects. These all then tie into one management interface to provide a cloud computing management platform.
