Dear Community,<br>
<br>
This is the official announcement of OpenNebula 4.0, codename Eagle,<br>
five years after our first public release. OpenNebula 4.0 is the<br>
result of the terrific feedback of the day-to-day operation of<br>
virtualized infrastructures by many of you, result of all your<br>
contributions, bug reports, patches, and translations, but one and<br>
foremost, OpenNebula 4.0 is the realization of a vision of simplicity,<br>
openness, code-correctness and a sysadmin-centric approach.<br>
<br>
OpenNebula 4.0 includes new features in most of its subsystems. We are<br>
showing for the first time a completely redesigned Sunstone, with a<br>
fresh and modern look and an updated workflow for most of the dialogs.<br>
The also new Sunstone Views functionality allows to customize the GUI<br>
for each type of user or group, so the interface implements a<br>
different provisioning model for each role. A whole new set of<br>
operations for VMs like system and disk snapshoting, capacity<br>
re-sizing, programmable VM actions and IPv6 among others. There are<br>
some new drivers also, like Ceph; as well as improvements for VMware,<br>
KVM and Xen. The scheduler has received some attention from the<br>
OpenNebula team to easily define more placement policies...and much<br>
more.<br>
<br>
As usual OpenNebula releases are named after a Nebula. The Eagle<br>
Nebula (catalogued as Messier 16 or M16, and as NGC 6611, and also<br>
known as the Star Queen Nebula) is a young open cluster of stars in<br>
the constellation Serpens, discovered by Jean-Philippe de Cheseaux in<br>
1745-46. It is located about 7,000 light-years away from Earth.<br>
<br>
And last, but not least, we want to give a huge THANKS to our<br>
community, without whom OpenNebula wouldn't be anywhere as near as<br>
good as it is today.<br>
<br>
So, let's fly over the clouds riding the Eagle ;)<br>
