Drupal is much more than a content management system; it is a framework for building web applications.

OpenStack is an open source cloud computing platform that is becoming more widely used by cloud providers. One issue faced by teams wanting to integrate OpenStack-based providers into their service portfolio is inconsistent dashboards and provider-specific tools.

Drupal can be used to overcome this problem. Drupal can even help you integrate even deeper with these providers, perhaps by directly triggering server deployments based on e-commerce transactions or direct client request.
