Xen Cloud Platform Overview

Xen Cloud Platform offers ISVs and service providers a complete cloud infrastructure platform with a powerful management stack based on open, standards-based APIs, support for mutli-tenancy, SLA guarantees and detailed metrics for consumption based charging.

The Team

Mike McClurg is currently the project lead for XCP. Go to XCP People to get a full list.

Using XCP

The latest Xen Cloud Platform is available as source code or a bootable installer ISO from the download page.

Getting Started

Documentation

Support

XCP Developers

As with any open source project, we welcome developers who want to participate in the project. A number of resources are available at:

If you are unsure, drop your friendly neighbourhood community manager a line at community.manager@xen.org

Get Involved

There is quite a bit of interesting work to do around XCP. The following lists give you an idea:

XCP Roadmap

The current XCP roadmap is available at XCP_Roadmap

Third Party Integrations

A list of 3rd party tools that support XCP, including Mangement Utilities, is available at XCP Projects.

XCP Community Meetings

XCP used to run monthly community meetings. The next meeting is not currently scheduled. Please contact community.manager@xen.org if you would want to be included in a future meeting and/or have any specific issues to discuss. Past meetings were dial-in meetings, with active participation at Freenode: #xen-api on IRC. However we are open to suggestions for future meetings.
