The package includes cloud ready server templates for Ubuntu, that are prebuilt for normal server configurations, such as database clusters, grids, scalable web arrays and application arrays all executing on Ubuntu server.
“The RightScale cloud management platform gives Ubuntu developers an excellent cloud management solution, with automated management of the complete cloud deployment throughout the application’s lifecycle,” said Simon Wardley, support services manager at Canonical. “RightScale is a clear leader in the cloud space, and we look forward to working with them as we continue to embrace cloud computing as part of Ubuntu.”
