In OpenNebula, we have a lot to celebrate around here lately, including our fifth anniversary. Although OpenNebula started as a research project more than 7 years ago, it was in november 2007 when we created the OpenNebula open-source project. Since then, 12 stable versions have been released in a rapid release cycle to accelerate the transfer of innovation to the market, and OpenNebula has evolved into an active open-source project with a steadily growing community that, by many measures is more than doubling each year.
What’s more interesting behind these figures is the quality of our community and their valuable contributions that includeIndustry and Research leaders building enterprise private clouds, cloud services, and clouds for HPC and Science. According to C12G’s latest Cloud Architecture Survey, the majority of OpenNebula deployments, 43 percent, are in business accounts compared to 17 percent in research, and less than 10 percent in academia. It is encouraging to receive such a great feedback from you.
