In the current scenario of global economic downturn, the market of open source cloud computing platform is hot and on the hike. The prime reason of its height in the market trend is that cloud computing typically involves provisioning of dynamically scalable and often virtualised resources which are available free; it is especially surging high in the business industry as the source code of the cloud is freely available.
Nowadays, there are several open source resources available on web that offers fully managed cloud services including shared root access, application monitoring, server patching, managed security, managed templates and snapshots, intrusion detection (IDS), and database clustering. These resources have proved quite beneficial for many companies or enterprises in storing and maintaining databases as well as in easily organizing information in different departments with less hassle and cost. We are hereby in this post sharing several Open Source Resources for Cloud Computing which can help you in customizing your own computing clouds to work alongside more powerful commercial solutions. Jump through the list and opt which one suits to your need at its best.
