Last week we launched the Beta of our new OpenNebula 6.6 “Electra”. Today, we are happy to announce to our Community that we have published its Release Candidate! 🎉 Version 6.6 comes with a number of amazing new features to improve the support for day-2 operations, including a fully revamped Backup solution and an exciting integration with Prometheus plus new dashboards for Grafana! 🤩

This Release Candidate is now available for download. We offer a big thanks to all of you, dear members of the OpenNebula Community, for your dedicated attention to testing since we published the Beta version. These days the OpenNebula team will still be in “bug-fixing mode”, in preparation for the stable release that will come out in a matter of days, so you are more than welcome to keep sending feedback for that final version! 🤓

⚠️ Please check the known issues before submitting an issue through GitHub. Also note that being a development version, there is no migration path from the previous stable version (6.4.x) nor migration path to the final stable version (6.6.0). A list of open issues can be found in the GitHub development portal.

🚀 Download OpenNebula 6.6 and give it a whirl!
