Eucalyptus is a Linux-based
software architecture that implements scalable, efficiency-enhancing private
and hybrid clouds within an enterprise’s existing IT infrastructure. Because
Eucalyptus provides Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), you can provision your
own resources (hardware, storage, and network) through Eucalyptus on an
as-needed basis.
A Eucalyptus cloud is deployed
across your enterprise's on-premise data center. As a result, your organization
has a full control of the cloud infrastructure. You can implement and enforce
various level of security. Sensitive data managed by the cloud does not have to
leave your enterprise boundaries, keeping data completely protected from
external access by your enterprise firewall.
Eucalyptus was designed from the
ground up to be easy to install and non-intrusive. The software framework is
modular, with industry-standard, language-agnostic communication. Eucalyptus is
also unique in that it provides a virtual network overlay that isolates network
traffic of different users as well as allows two or more clusters to appear to
belong to the same Local Area Network (LAN).
