THIS IS A DRAFT

But you probably already knew that, since it's empty. Please see the related blueprint on Launchpad. See the Ubuntu SpecSpec for instructions on writing an Ubuntu specification.

Summary

The Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) is an open source enterprise-ready server virtualization and cloud computing platform, delivering the Xen Hypervisor with support for a range of guest operating systems. It is being ported to run on a Debian or Ubuntu host system.

This project will produce an XCP service provider for Juju. This service provider can be used to provision Juju charms on pools of Citrix XenServer systems, XCP systems, or XCP "Project Kronos" systems running on Ubuntu.

Please visit the Ubuntu Xen.org page on Launchpad for more information. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-xen-org

Release Note

Rationale

With Project Kronos, Xen.org's port of the XCP toolstack to Debian and Ubuntu systems, we're more tightly integrating Ubuntu Cloud with Xen and XCP. It seems natural that we would want to provide a way for people to use Juju, Ubuntu's system for provisioning services on the cloud, with XCP and Ubuntu Server-based XCP systems.
