I am confused how MAAS (Metal as a service) is different from Cloud? What is the difference or similarities between MAAS and openstack, are they both same or different

MAAS is just a provisioning approach that operates in units of physical servers rather than virtual machines. It's also a terrible acronym.

Openstack is a cloud computing management platform. In this context, you'd use MAAS to build the foundation for a cloud solution like Openstack.

Are you building a cloud service?
