In today''s release, we''ve added a powerful new dimension to the VWS open source cloud computing tools that I thought may be of interest here. Please see this page: http://workspace.globus.org/clouds/clusters.html Features: * Launch heterogeneous clusters of auto-configuring VMs with one command * No private keys need to be on images at the repository, you can collaborate openly and share them freely * Configuration sensitive to (the changing) network and cryptographic identities is automatically managed upon boot * Shared, secure information context created for all launch members * Data may be sent to cluster''s context by remote client for consumption by the nodes * You can attain information on nodes without knowing about any messaging code/protocols * Information is available to remote client via secure path (like generated SSHd host keys) Also there is now an RSS feed for project updates: http://workspace.globus.org/rss.xml Thanks, Tim _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
