Apache CloudStack Server Management
As we all know already, cloud computing has become an important part for many companies today. What I am going to discuss here is a well-known open source cloud computing software called Apache CloudStack.
CloudStack can be simply defined as a cloud computing software mostly used for deployments and managing the infrastructure-cloud services. Most of the clients of CloudStack will be service providers and other IT enterprises as they can provide on-demand cloud computing services in the form of a self-service virtual machine to their users.
There are three deployment models for CloudStack, which are Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and Hybrid Cloud services. It is an infrastructure service (laaS) cloud-computing platform.
Cloudstack now supports most prevalent hypervisors like VMware, KVM, XenServer, and Xen Cloud Platform. Cloudstack users can easily manage their cloud with a web interface which is very easy to use and to get familiar. In addition to that, CloudStack provides an API that’s compatible with AWS EC@ and S3 for the clients who wish to deploy hybrid clouds.
