Eucalyptus Partner Day: Can VARs and Open-Source Cloud Connect?

,----[ Quote ]
| Back in March 2010, Marten Mickos, best 
| known as the man who built MySQL into an 
| estimated $100 million enterprise, made 
| headlines when he stepped in at Eucalyptus 
| in the role of CEO. But even before that, a 
| partnership with Canonical to provide the 
| platform at the heart of the Ubuntu 
| Enterprise Cloud beginning with 2009âs 
| Ubuntu Server Edition 9.10 garnered 
| Eucalyptus a lot of notice.

Marten Mickos says open source doesn't have to be fully open

,----[ Quote ]
| The term "open core" essentially means that 
| the heart of a software project is built on, 
| and remains, open source but added features 
| may not be (particularly a commercial 
| version intended for enterprise use).VC-
| funded software startups love this model.

Mixing:

Open Source vs Proprietary Code: seeking a balanced standard

,----[ Quote ]
| This proprietary to open source to public 
| domain source code release Standard will 
| bring to an end the present conflict between 
| proprietary and open code development 
| models.  Some companies and individuals will 
| choose to develop their software as open 
| source, to take advantage of the extra and 
| free resources that the open source 
| developing model provides, while others will 
| prefer to develop it as proprietary code, to 
| gain a competitive advantage once it is 
| release. One way or another, within a set 
| number of years the code will become public 
| domain, free for all to use, share and 
| modify.

Open Source Meets the Cloud

,----[ Quote ]
| The most popular Private Cloud implementation
| comes from Eucalyptus Systems. This was started
| as a research project by the Computer Science
| Department at the University of California,
| Santa Barbara before it was distributed through
| Ubuntu Server by Canonical that promotes Ubuntu
| and other OSS.
