MADRID, July 10, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    The OpenNebula Project is proud to announce the twelfth stable release of its fully
open-source, widely used cloud platform for managing a data center's virtual
infrastructure. OpenNebula 3.6 comes with several new capabilities that makes it a unique
software for the management of private clouds based on KVM, Xen and VMware, including
hotplugging, new quota and accounting tools, advanced functionality for virtual machine
re-scheduling and disk cloning, and new extensions for Sunstone. As an enterprise-class
product, OpenNebula offers an update path so all existing users can easily migrate their
production and experimental environments to the new version. OpenNebula undergoes a
thorough testing process, which has been improved and extended in version 3.6.

deploy appliances in a single click, and any software developer can distribute a new
appliance, making it available to all OpenNebula deployments worldwide in few minutes.
