Hi Jamie I would highlight the exciting features from 4.17 and coming soon in 4.18.
* ClusterAPI (4.17) It enables CloudStack users to consider a consistent way to deploy a hybrid workload of cloud-native applications * IPv6 (4.17) A much-desired feature for isolated networks and VPC * Edge computing (4.18) Compared to the traditional CloudStack zones, a dehydrated zone results in resource savings on the boards solving problems related to latency at low cost in regions poorly served by the internet network. * Tungsten SDN Fabric (4.18) An open-source solution to enable SDN at scale in CloudStack and centralized tooling to manage networking and security. * Autoscaling (4.18) Apache CloudStack native solution, different from other approaches that created vendor lock-in of closed source products.

Hi everyone, We would like to put together a year in review article for the Apache CloudStack blog. The blog will include information on the 4.17 and the upcoming 4.18 releases and the biggest achievements of the community this year. We would like to find out what the communities’ thoughts are on the biggest achievements this year! If you are willing to share, please do get back to me by Monday 19th December, as we look to publish the blog before the end of the year. Furthermore, if there are any new community members, we would love to include some words/quotes from you on: why you chose CloudStack/how you use it. Lastly, another gentle reminder to fill out the CloudStack user survey (link below), to collect feedback from CloudStack users about its capabilities, features, use cases and roadmap. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScPHIRetdt-pxPT62IesXMoQUmhQ8ATGKcYZa507mB9uwzn-Q/viewform Kind regards, Jamie Pell
