Canonical Looks To Clouds With Next Ubuntu Server

By Kevin McLaughlin, ChannelWeb

6:25 PM EDT Mon. Apr. 06, 2009
Canonical on April 23 will release the next version of Ubuntu Server,
version 9.04, also known as "Jaunty Jackalope," which includes
expanded virtualization and cloud computing capabilities.

Ubuntu Server 9.04 features a new version of KVM (Kernel-based Virtual
Machine) that facilitates live migration of virtual machines, as well
as broader cluster support for file serving and deeper integration
with Microsoft (NSDQ:MSFT) systems, said Steve George, director of
support and services at Canonical.

Ubuntu Server 9.04 lets developers build applications for the Amazon
(NSDQ:AMZN) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and use Ubuntu as the
operating system and delivery platform, according to George. "The APIs
and delivery mechanism are compatible with EC2. Developers can build
an application and deploy it through Amazon, and select Ubuntu to be
the operating system layer," he said.

Ubuntu Server also includes clustering software for building private
computing clouds, a feature that's likely to appeal to large
organizations that have security policies that preclude the use of
public cloud infrastructure, George said. "You can take Ubuntu Server,
install it on number of servers in your data center and then set up
these servers to form a cloud. It's basically a cluster of systems
with a cloud controller on top," he said.

"This lets you set up your own computing cloud with whatever machines
you have handy in your own network," said Thor Mirchandani, president
of Presens Technologies, a Winston-Salem, N.C.-based solution
provider.

"Previously, you had to test in production and you had to set up a
server on Amazon and run it there. The clock would be ticking and you
would be charged," Mirchandani said. "But now, you can develop
applications in-house on private infrastructure and then deploy them
when they're ready."

Canonical already has a substantial number of users in the beta, and
plans are to beef up this functionality even further with the Ubtunu
Server 9.10 release that's slated for October, George said.

Canonical Looks To Clouds With Next Ubuntu Server

By Kevin McLaughlin, ChannelWeb

Canonical on April 23 will release the next version of Ubuntu Server,
version 9.04, also known as "Jaunty Jackalope," which includes
expanded virtualization and cloud computing capabilities.

Ubuntu Server 9.04 features a new version of KVM (Kernel-based Virtual
Machine) that facilitates live migration of virtual machines, as well
as broader cluster support for file serving and deeper integration
with Microsoft (NSDQ:MSFT) systems, said Steve George, director of
support and services at Canonical.

Ubuntu Server 9.04 lets developers build applications for the Amazon
(NSDQ:AMZN) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and use Ubuntu as the
operating system and delivery platform, according to George. "The APIs
and delivery mechanism are compatible with EC2. Developers can build
an application and deploy it through Amazon, and select Ubuntu to be
the operating system layer," he said.

Ubuntu Server also includes clustering software for building private
computing clouds, a feature that's likely to appeal to large
organizations that have security policies that preclude the use of
public cloud infrastructure, George said. "You can take Ubuntu Server,
install it on number of servers in your data center and then set up
these servers to form a cloud. It's basically a cluster of systems
with a cloud controller on top," he said.

"This lets you set up your own computing cloud with whatever machines
you have handy in your own network," said Thor Mirchandani, president
of Presens Technologies, a Winston-Salem, N.C.-based solution
provider.

"Previously, you had to test in production and you had to set up a
server on Amazon and run it there. The clock would be ticking and you
would be charged," Mirchandani said. "But now, you can develop
applications in-house on private infrastructure and then deploy them
when they're ready."

Canonical already has a substantial number of users in the beta, and
plans are to beef up this functionality even further with the Ubtunu
Server 9.10 release that's slated for October, George said.
