Ensemble - now called Juju, Ubuntu's Cloud

Ensemble: service orchestration for the cloud (my work for Ubuntu Server)  - via Jim Baker

Jim and I spent some time chatting this weekend because he's in the Swamp for an Ubuntu conference. I have not read this article yet, but it is about Ensemble, Jim's work with Ubuntu. Check it out if you are interested and let us know what you learn. 

 

Quick update - Ensamble has been renamed Juju - see info here:

Why juju?

The emergence of cloud computing has reduced the task of server provisioning down to minutes, from days. Juju is the next evolutionary step. It reduces the task of provisioning and control of service applications in the cloud down to seconds, from hours.

I just attended a seminar today at the Ubuntu Developer's Summit being held at The Caribe Royal about the ubuntu cloud.

Happy 10th year, JCertif!
