Getting familiar with a cloud platform often requires more than documentation alone. Short, visual demonstrations can make it much easier to understand how features work in practice and how different components come together in real infrastructure environments.
To support this, we’ve launched a new Screencasts Hub that brings together a growing collection of short, practical walkthroughs designed to help users quickly explore OpenNebula capabilities and operational workflows.
Explore the new hub here.
The goal is simple: to provide clear, visual guidance for real operational tasks so that teams can validate integrations, understand workflows, and get hands-on with OpenNebula features faster.
Practical Guides for Real Infrastructure Operations
The new Screencasts Hub organizes videos into three main areas:
- Quick Start – for users getting up and running with OpenNebula
- Product Features – focused demonstrations of core platform capabilities
- Use Cases – real-world scenarios showing OpenNebula in action.
This structure allows both newcomers and experienced users to quickly find the content relevant to their needs, whether that’s deploying their first cloud environment or validating advanced operational workflows.
Each screencast is intentionally concise and focused on a single task, helping teams quickly understand how specific features work without having to navigate lengthy tutorials or documentation.
Examples of Recent Screencasts
The hub already includes a wide range of walkthroughs covering key areas of the platform. Some of the latest additions include practical demonstrations such as:
Infrastructure and VM Operations
- Basic VM operations in OpenNebula
- Disk and VM snapshot management
- Migrating a virtual machine between hosts
- Resizing a running virtual machine
Networking and Resource Management
- Virtual network configuration and management
- Security groups for network isolation
- Managing users, groups, and views
- Enforcing resource quotas
Storage and Infrastructure Operations
- Adding and managing datastores
- Backup and restore operations
- High availability for both the frontend and virtual machines.
These short demonstrations provide a hands-on look at everyday cloud operations performed within OpenNebula environments.
A recent example walks through how to integrate OpenNebula with Veeam Backup & Replication. This kind of practical walkthrough helps teams understand how OpenNebula fits into broader enterprise infrastructure workflows.
Integration and Advanced Workflows
Beyond core operations, the Screencasts Hub also includes examples of more advanced integrations and infrastructure scenarios.
The Use Cases section also explores scenarios such as:
- Multi-cloud federation across providers
- AI inference workloads at the edge
- Multi-tenant AI-as-a-Service platforms
- Cloud repatriation from hyperscalers to on-premises infrastructure.
Learn at Your Own Pace
Whether you’re evaluating OpenNebula, deploying your first environment, or exploring advanced capabilities, the new Screencasts Hub provides an easy way to learn by doing.
Instead of digging through long documentation pages, you can quickly watch a short walkthrough, reproduce the steps, and validate the workflow in your own infrastructure.
We’ll continue expanding the library with new videos covering additional features, integrations, and operational scenarios, so stay tuned.
