Open Source Virtualization Software

m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

vMotion Detector is an application suite designed for Oracle OEM, Oracle Grid or Nagios that allows a Windows or Linux Guest VM detect when it has its Session ID modified due to an underlying DRS or HA clustered environment change.

CIMHA is aimed to create integrated suite to provision and manage HA clusters in virtual environment. It analyzes kernel/hardware health of cluster nodes by using VESPER(linux kernel prober) and migrates the Resources based on probe signals.

Freenomalism is a free, community based fork of the Enomalism web-based virtual infrastructure/cloud computing platform. The dashboard can help with issues including deployment planning, load balancing, migration, configuration management, and capacity.

The Host sFlow project has moved to http://sflow.net

The LBVM allows to load balance virtual machines with zero-downtime (live migration) among physical servers. Algorithms are fully configurable. Currently preconfigured and tested virtualization technologies are OpenVZ and Xen.

To build a scientific computation cloud service for open source scientific computing tool ‘Octave’. User can subscribe for the service and can access the octave tool over cloud.

OpenECP is an open source fork of the Enomaly Elastic Computing Platform (ECP) following its commercialisation. It is a web-based management platform for hypervisors which can be used to create "public" and "private" cloud computing environments.

Phoenix Cluster Project is an open cluster architecture. It is built using Gentoo Linux with RootFS shared between all nodes of the cluster. The main components are: Torque/Maui, Network Raid, Ganglia, LAMP Platform, KVM and GLSL for GPGPU.

A slightly modified base package Slackware image suitable for VM performance testing. Project Goals: Development of production testing protocols Base Image Base +Apache Base + MySQL Base + node.js Base + AoE Standard Full Slackware Current VM image The goal of the Slackless project is really two-fold. To provide high quality virtual images of the original Slackware operating system suitable for use and testing in virtual environments in an effort to introduce users new to Slackware to the advantages of the K.I.S.S. development philosophy. It's longer range goal is to produce a procedure for producing minimal functional server images for use in production environments. The goal is to minimize the image size and resource consumption while maintaining the stability and functionality that makes Slackware famous in an effort to provide implementers of virtual environments and option that allows them to install more server images on existing hardware platforms.

Construct and management virtual clusters which the nodes of the clusters running on the virtual machine rather than native machine. Fast install and switch virtual clusters. Efficiently storage vm images. support variant VMMs.

This project proposes the development of a system that automatically balances the load of virtualized servers, monitoring their resources and migrating virtual machines if necessary. The main goal of Vmbal is to improve the usage of server resources.

This project aims to provide a reliable cloud computing system, able to work with cloud computing framework existing today. Developed and maintained by Alecsandru Patrascu, Computer Science, University Politehnica of Bucharest

vzhaipd is a set of Virtuozzo/OpenVZ mount/umount Container scripts that will make sure a HA IP is always present on one of two or more Containers.
