Hi guys,
this is a more of theoretical question....

Is it possible to run VM-Ware or even a complete Cloud WITHIN Ubuntu Cloud?

Hi,

I guess the limitation would be the needs of your hypervisor. Most chips (Intel, AMD) today don't support (at least on a high maturity level) nested virtualization. So if you'd try running nested clouds, you'd end up choosing software emulation in the inner cloud (which would be quite slow). Theoretically, this may be possible, check my link below for running UEC on top of Amazon EC2, however it will be quite slow to be useful in anything resembling production
