Re: Synnefo + Ganeti = cloud software that works
#2I cannot comment on Synnefo itself, but Ganeti is a wonderful software. I have been using it for more than a year in production (June 2011) without a single issue. I even built my own PaaS on top of it[1].
If you want to understand the quality of Ganeti, go and take a look at an example of design document[2]. The quality of the documentation, the time spent in defining the requirements for the next release incorporating the feedback from the users together with the quality of the code and the human quality of the people at Google driving the project make it a pleasure to use this software.
If you are not interested, I anyway always recommend people reading the documentation of this project just to know that one can produce such good documentation.

Re: Synnefo + Ganeti = cloud software that works
#3This service is delightfully Greek. I haven't tried the actual offering, though. I think the front page copy could be a bit clearer, as I'm hazy on what exactly it does.
Re: Synnefo + Ganeti = cloud software that works
#4Front page should be clearer and it needs a bit more explanation, I first thought its cloud software for managing cloud and clients, but when I tried the trial option I didn't see any client options so that means its a software for managing own cloud vm's ? (but it has API, so it should be easy to build client interface)
Also the "trial" option makes me think there is paid option somewhere, which is quite confusing since there isn't one, it should be replaced with "Demo" maybe ?

Bareku looks very interesting, but what are the benefits over something like a simple Capistrano deploy script?
I have never heard about Ganeti but it also sounds promising.

It's cloud software for running a full IaaS service of your own, on your own machines, with Ganeti at the backend. There is a client, called kamaki, see http://www.synnefo.org/docs/kamaki/latest/index.html, but it's true we should have a separate page for it.
About the "trial" option, we have it as "Try it out" on the first page of http://www.synnefo.org. If you saw it on okeanos.io, we'll change it there accordingly.
Anyway, have you had a chance to try out? :)

Yep, I've tried it, and it looks promising, and simple to use :)
I've read the "quick" installation, which is not quick at all ^^
I've subscribed to git rss feed, and I will follow the development process a bit before trying out the installation on own dedicated, and maybe even try developing the simple "client" interface for our needs using the API provided if the backend proves to be stable and good.

Our designer can simply push the updates into the application git repository and a new version of the application is deployed. It removes friction.

For those not speaking Greek, synnefo means cloud.
