Enterprise Cloud 

On-premise Enterprise Cloud Infrastructure as a Service

Eucalyptus is the world's most widely deployed software platform for on-premise (private) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) clouds. It uses existing infrastructure to create a scalable, secure web services layer that abstracts compute, network and storage to offer IaaS. Eucalyptus takes advantage of modern infrastructure virtualization software to create elastic pools that can be dynamically scaled up or down depending on application workloads. Eucalyptus web services are uniquely designed for hybrid clouds using the industry standard Amazon Web Services™ (AWS) API. The benefits are highly efficient scalability, increased trust and control for IT as a Service.

"With its open source approach and community engagement, enterprise functionality, and AWS compatibility, Eucalyptus was the only real contender for Wetpaint.com's on-line content platform. The advanced new functionality in Eucalyptus 3 such as high availability is extremely important for enterprise private and hybrid cloud deployments and puts Eucalyptus even further ahead in the market."— Tony Flint, Operations Manager, Wetpaint.com
