OpenNebula Overview
OpenNebula combines existing virtualization with advanced features for multi-tenancy, automatic provision and elasticity to offer on-demand applications and services.
- It supports both KVM virtual machines and Kubernetes clusters in a common shared environment, controlled by a single entity.
- It can easily provision hybrid and edge environments with infrastructure resources from AWS and Equinix.
- It provides a single, feature-rich and flexible management platform for all cloud components across data centers, reducing complexity, resource usage and operational costs.
Distributed Cloud Architecture
A standard OpenNebula Cloud Architecture consists of the Cloud Management Cluster, with the Front-end node(s); and the Cloud Infrastructure, compromising one or several workload Clusters. These can be distributed across multiple geographical locations, with different configurations and technologies to better meet your needs:
- Edge Clusters that can be automatically deployed both on-premises and on public cloud/edge providers to enable true hybrid environments.
- Open Cloud Clusters based on certified combinations of open source hypervisors, storage and networking technologies.
- Kubernetes clusters automatically deployed through OpenNebula’s CNF-certified K8s distribution, integrating seamlessly with VM workloads.
