Product

OpenNebula 7.2 is almost here, delivering production-ready performance, deep NVIDIA integration, and hardware-level security to power the next generation of sovereign AI factories.

  • Optimized infrastructure for AI: Deep NVIDIA integration with validated support for NVSwitch/NVLink, Spectrum-X, GB200/GB300 systems, and BlueField DPUs ensures high-performance, scalable AI environments.
  • Scalable architecture & performance: A new gRPC API, improved VM observability, and enhanced container and networking capabilities enable efficient, large-scale operations.
  • Hardened security for sovereign clouds: Confidential Computing, vTPM, and enforced 2FA provide end-to-end protection for sensitive and regulated workloads.
  • Enhanced storage & backup: Live storage migration, expanded integrations (Pure Storage, NetApp, Veeam), and performance optimizations ensure resilience without disruption.
  • Simplified deployment: OneForm automates cluster provisioning, with expanded support for modern enterprise operating systems, including official support for SUSE Linux, as well as the latest versions of AlmaLinux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Debian 13, and OpenSUSE 16.
