Executive Summary

After several years on the bleeding edge of IT, cloud computing is finally growing its sphere of influence among mainstream businesses due to the advent of private clouds, which focus on the provision and management of virtualized resources within corporate data centers. In contrast with public clouds, the deployment of enterprise-class private clouds provides enterprise IT with a sense of security and manageability. In addition, many private cloud solutions are open source-based, providing enterprises with low-risk, cost-effective ways to get started. In short, open source technology has helped drum up enterprise interest in deploying private clouds.

Today, there are many open source cloud projects under way, backed by a wide variety of industry players and academia. Amazon, Canonical, Eucalyptus and Enomaly are examples of emerging players offering commercial cloud solutions that leverage open source technology. In this report, we review Eucalyptus' open source cloud platform. Thus far, Eucalyptus has done its homework, engineering its cloud platform with today's corporate data center requirements in mind.

One real-world example of a successful private cloud based on Eucalyptus' open source technology is NASA's Nebula cloud at its Ames Research Center. NASA's Nebula cloud is a self-service, virtualized platform that provides compute resources, storage and networking services to the staff at the space agency. But NASA's private cloud project did not happen overnight. It required a tight collaboration between NASA and the Eucalyptus product team.
