The Apache Software Foundation announces ApacheT CloudStackT v4.6
r customers achieve operational success in upgrading to and operating clouds based on this release. Apache CloudStack is the best kept secret in open source cloud computing and has a global user base of cloud operators many of whom contribute to the project." "The 4.6 release of Apache CloudStack brings new features and fixes bugs which are critical for our Aurora cloud offering at PCextreme," said Wido den Hollander, CEO of PCextreme. "We've worked hard with the community to get 4.6 released. The committers working at PCextreme resolved multiple issues and also introduced new features in CloudStack including a new StatsCollector output to Graphite and better support for CEPH. This new release allows us to grow our cloud even further." "I'm very excited with launch of the Apache CloudStack version 4.6," said Cyrano Rizzo, CIO of the University of Sao-Paulo. "This version brought many new features and benefits, such as the case in resilience with the new redundant router for VPC, the capability to rapid deployment, demo and test to run the Apache CloudStack inside Docker that will speed the growth, the possibility to manage the resources with Graphite, the ease of upload templates and volumes, among many others, this version also brought many improvements, I'm very happy with one in particular that makes SAML plugin to production grade, this functionality is helping me to build a huge project called interCloud that intend to federate many public universities across the Brazil with Single Sign On." CloudStack entered the Apache Incubator in April 2012 and graduated as an Apache Software Foundation Top-level Project in March 2013.

re: Enabling SSL in the CloudStack
Hi Hollman, I'd recommend fronting your CloudStack installation with a load balancer and terminating the SSL sessions there. This will work well even if you only have a single management server behind the load balancer. You gain the added benefit of being able to scale your management cluster out without changing the front end IP address serving the portal / API. Most load balancers like Citrix NetScaler will work well, or you could use an open source solution such as HAproxy - the latest development builds support native SSL termination.

RE: Domain and Account organisation
IMHO these are questions that only you are going to be able to answer. Firstly you need to decide how you want your business to operate, then to map that to the technical implementation, not the other way around. The answer is that you need to look at your business first, document the requirements, then implement and test the technical solution. There is no easy answer.

Managed and Non-Managed. Managed customers pay for monitoring and proactive administration of vms. They also get us to create VMs for them from time to time. Non-Managed customers are completely self-service. I'm not sure if the managed / non-managed things is relevent in this case, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. My thinking thus far is to create a domain per customer, an account per customer (or more accounts if there are departments within that company) and then users under each account. It was also suggested to me to create a domain for Managed and one for Non-Managed and then start creating sub-domains under those. At the moment I can't really understand 100% what domains are used for - same goes for the domain-admin. Could anyone explain it in simple terms? Thanks Len
