News from the Cloud
VmWare releases the first Cloud Computing Operating System: http://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere/index.html
The Eucalyptus project seems to have gone commercial: http://www.undertheradarblog.com/blog/eucalyptus-presents-at-under-the-radar-2009/
What we learn from all this: Cloud Computing is stil a hype and everybody uses his own definition of a Cloud. Kind of funny, but currently a very intersting field to work in!
Hi,
Surely "first Cloud Computing Operating System" is just VMWare's own marketing hype?
Do you think it objectively fulfills the criteria for a "Cloud Computing Operating System" or do you think it's Enterprise Virtualisation with Provisioning and Systems Management?
All the best,
Wayne

Well I think it is more the second: so a 'Enterprise Virtualisation with Provisioning and Systems Management', The diagrams on the homepage suggest that - and vSphere seems to be the succeeder of VmWare Infrastructure which was a software bundle.
Cheers,
