As cloud deployments continue to grow, so too are the requirements for high availability and stability. That’s the direction that open source private cloud vendor Eucalyptus is headed with their new 3.0 release.
“We really feel that this is a big step forward in terms of the mission criticality of the applications running in the cloud and being able to serve the most demanding requirements,” Marten Mickos, CEO of Eucalyptus told InternetNews.com.
Mickos explained that in Eucalyptus 3.0 there are now multiple controllers for high-availability. The controllers are web services that help to orchestrate the real time operation of a Eucalyptus cloud.
