Cloudstack in the news ;)

Hi all,

We just released this: http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/leaseweb-usa-adds-authentic-private-virtual-networking-to-its-cloud-195551701.html

This is CloudStack advanced networking (for 'cloud') and CloudStack Basic networking (for 'virtual server') as a product. Thought it might be on-topic (as I mention CloudStack in the release, and we contribute to the project) - if this kind of stuff is too commercial for this list, let me know. We're now running 6 Cloudstack setups (in datacenters in NL, Germany and USA) serving thousands of instances to customers - and are obviously happy with it :)
As part of the product there's some firewall functionality in our control panel (built on the firewalling stuff in 4.x/apache setup, and security groups in the 2.x/citrix setup we run for the classical virtual server product) - built on top of the CS api.

Met vriendelijke groet / kind regards,

This is great. Please consider the case study... it will help with CS exposure.

Good to hear - I thought the same, but I hate spam, so wouldn't want to
send anything considered just that. Case study: no problem at all, would
be happy to help.

I don't see a problem with it. It's exciting to see folks using
CloudStack, and particularly ACS 4.x in production.
I'd like for you to consider and see if Leaseweb would be interested
in doing a case study-type of document detailing your experiences with
Apache CloudStack.

This one is in french:

http://www.lemagit.fr/economie/business/2013/02/01/rupture-ikoula-se-positionne-sur-le-cloud-prive-avec-cloudstack/

It talks about how iKoula a french service provider chose CloudStack because it's in Apache.

I am working with them to get an english version.

Case Studies are excellent publicity.
Robert: a blog post on your own website with a factual case study highlighting the benefits might be a better received than PR Newswire (PR Newswire just screams marketing) and give you more mileage as well. 

Keep the cases coming. We could do a case study about BT or some of the big guys - that will put us on the map.
