This seems like a nice and really simple solution, but i wonder about the expandability of a setup like this one. > For more professional Open-Source solution, it will be OpenStack + > it's WUI (Dashboard) > www.openstack.org > > This one lets you manage a cloud of servers, and includes a > distributed storage solution (swift), and distributed authentication > mechanism (keystone). > > Video: (OpenStack + it's WUI Dashboard) > http://vimeo.com/20787736 Thanks for pointing this out to me, it actually looks like something really similar to the solutions proposed by vmware. I know a lot of the OSS solutions require quite a bit of work in order to set them up, and i don't know if this one does too.

I was also wondering if any of you had opinions regarding Proxmox. http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Main_Page It seems like a solid solution and it also looks it's gonna be something that works out of the box by just installing it, which is kinda what i was hoping for - yes, i know, i'm lazy :) -- Davide Mirtillo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
