Please send comments, corrections, flames, and such ASAP. (Note several URLs are needed, see below where [URL] is included.) ### [ANNOUNCE] Apache CloudStack 4.0-Incubating Released The Apache CloudStack (Incubating) project is pleased to announce the 4.0 release of the CloudStack Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud orchestration platform. This is the first release from within the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Apache CloudStack is a Java-based platform that delivers an integrated platform that allows users to build a feature-complete IaaS. Apache CloudStack includes the compute, networking, accounting, storage, and user interface components to needed for private, hybrid, or public clouds. The 4.0 release represents the culmination of more than six months work by the Apache CloudStack community. The release includes more than a dozen new features, many bugfixes, security fixes, and a fully audited codebase that complies with ASF guidelines. ##New Features: * Inter-VLAN Routing (VPC) * Site-to-Site VPN * Local Storage Support for Data Volumes * Virtual Resource Tagging * Secure Console Access on XenServer * Added the ability to create a VM without immediately starting it (via API) * Upload an Existing Volume to a Virtual Machine * Dedicated High-Availability Hosts * Support for Amazon Web Services API (formerly a separate package) * AWS API Extensions to include Tagging * Support for Nicira NVP (L2) * Ceph RBD Support for KVM * Support for Caringo as Secondary Storage * KVM Hypervisor support upgraded to work with Ubuntu 12.04 and RHEL 6.3 ##Downloads The official source code release can be downloaded from: [URL] In addition to the official source code release, the project has made convenience binaries available at: [URL] Pointers to older releases, the Git repository, and more can be found at: http://cloudstack.org/downloads.html ##Incubating Apache CloudStack is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. -- Joe Brockmeier j...@zonker.net Twitter: @jzb http://www.dissociatedpress.net/
