About OpenNebula
OpenNebula is an open source cloud computing platform that lets you build and manage virtualized data centers, private clouds, and hybrid cloud environments. It was originally developed at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and is now maintained by the OpenNebula Systems company. The platform supports multiple hypervisors including KVM, VMware vSphere, and LXD, and it integrates with cloud providers like AWS and Azure for hybrid setups. You get a centralized dashboard for managing VMs, storage, networking, and users, plus a powerful CLI and REST API for automation. Features include multi-tenancy with role-based access control, capacity planning, and support for containerized workloads alongside traditional VMs. OpenNebula is known for its simplicity compared to OpenStack, making it a popular choice for organizations that want a manageable cloud platform without a huge operations team. It runs on Linux and is distributed under the Apache 2.0 license.
