 ## CERN OpenStack Machines
 
-CERN provides an Infrastructure-as-a-Service as part of their private cloud, which any member can access.
-Through [OpenStack][openstack]{target=_blank} CERN allows users to create virtual machines on their computing infrastructure.
-Using self-service portals one can rapidly request virtual machines for production, testing and development purposes, accessible through an ssh connection.
-
-The machines can be of different capacities and run a variety of Windows or Linux operating systems.
-For details, see both the [CERN OpenStack][cern_openstack]{target=_blank .cern_login} website and its [documentation][cern_openstack_doc]{target=_blank} pages.
+See the section on [OpenStack VMs](openstack_vm.md) for more information.
