Centrify takes to the cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| Centrify announced last week that it has
| added Ubuntu 9.10 Server Edition to the long
| list of non-Windows operating systems whose
| authentication it has integrated with Active
| Directory. It has supported Ubuntu for quite
| some time, but what really exited the
| Centrify folk was the fact that this version
| of Ubuntu includes an open source cloud
| computing environment that can be easily
| integrated with Active Directory through the
| Centrify Suite for identity, access and
| privilege management.

Maybe Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud Makes Cloud Computing Too Easy
,----[ Quote ]
| The latest version of Ubuntu Server (9.10)
| includes the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (UEC),
| which is actually powered by Eucalyptus. The
| ability to deploy a âcloudâ on any server
| running Ubuntu is really quite amazing,
| especially given the compatibility of
| Eucalyptus with Amazon and the plethora of
| application images available for nearly
| immediate deployment. It supports both a
| public and private option, and a hybrid
| model, and comes replete with management
| tools designed to make building, deploying,
| and managing your own personal, private
| cloud a breeze.
