    OpenStack Essex

    Cloud computing is proved to be an important aspect for every growing business. It does not matter if you are a web hoster or an enterprise, everyone needs a personal cloud where they can carry out day to day business operations. Cloud computing was a concept sometime before, but after implementation of better technology it is possible to have your own personal cloud server. A cloud server is more in comparison to regular web server. With multi-features operating system on the web, you can access your documents and modify them wherever you want. You can share, or enjoy many other features. Cloud Computing is different type of online storage solution. Cloud Computing gives out dedicated software and processing work on the server. The best example I can give you is Google Docs. Signup a free account via Gmail and test it. You can install Google Drive on your system and drag the files inside that. Whenever you make changes the Sync tool makes changes to the actual file on the server, so that becomes easier for you. Cloud Computing add features like online document collaboration, cms support, database utilities, storage, computing, remote network support, backup, etc. A cloud computer is simply your online operating system. OpenStack Essex is one of the fully featured Cloud Computing Operating System. This OS targets quality and features. If you are planning to go for getting a highly featured and high performance OS then have a look on OpenStack Essex. The OS is simply designed with a manageable dock that controls all the features inside it. I had added some screenshot that might give you a small idea of the same. It is not really possible to tell everything about this new Cloud OS on a small article. The features and important aspects are discussed here only. OpenStack Essex makes your Cloud Computing more comfortable to use. You just need to maintain your hardware infrastructure, while on the software level this thing handles everything.

    Interface of Essex is entirely web base and very smooth in usage. It has all features listed properly on the single page. Like if you can see the dashboard image below you

    can find the left section dedicated to categories. Which is divided into Project and Admin column. There are many things that you can manage under the single dashboard.

    The dashboard does not really look complicated here. You can control user quotas here. That means you can manage the number of users on the bases of project you run on the cloud system. There are some nice features of this cloud OS that I want to discuss. The first one is OpenStack Compute. The feature involved in providing you’re a number of elements in online processing. Like you can simply run a number of storage solution online. Along with storage option, data security is also considered. This is one of the new features that much cloud computing os might lack. Data security and compliance with multiple formats is one of the best features of Essex. You can simply manage and control the data on your network by setting up different policies. Along with the management and control over data, people also look for a better disaster recovery process. This feature is a prime requirement of much server level process. Because you will never rely on software which does has an option to recover your data. And if we talk about cloud the platform is very wide. Essex has a better disaster recovery option. The dash board as I mentioned above is the admin panel. This panel helps you to manage and provision your cloud based process. Along with recovery you have option to protect your server via various authentication processes. Like you can block access with the help of login credential which are not easy to break.


    Based on Computer > Networking > Storage architecture Essex offer an affordable solution for large data networks. On Cloud Computing people actually operates the server anytime. That means there are no constant services which consume server resources. They are used when needed. Virtual machines are initiated on the basis of giving a standard architecture to everyone. You will need to provide a common interface, but limited to everyone. At this point architecture is something that really matters. This defines your cloud server design. The software support, hardware support, third party apps, etc depends on the cloud architecture. The virtualization technology used by Essex is designed to give high performance output.

    Re: OpenStack Essex

    OpenStack Essex looks good. But I think there is a time for this os to release finally in market. I hope there would be some kind of demo that we test. For a mid and large enterprise cloud really offers a personal protected space. This reduces the issue of settings up your own architecture of dedicated hardware.
