But first, a bit aboutthe CloudStack Release Process Time-based feature releases ~4 months* Bug-fixes in between Semantic Versioning for release numbers:

Started at version 4.1.0-incubating 4.1.0 will be backward compatible with 4.0.x-incubating

Ongoing feature merges into master

* Specific dates are hard to hit for the actual release, given that we’re volunteers and we want high quality releases!

Page 5: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

So when do you get 4.1.0? Real soon now… No really… any day now… (I hope to start the vote in the

next few days) It’ll take a few days after the vote passes to publish the

official release though!

Page 6: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

What’s in 4.1? Lots of internal architectural changes (we want to speed up

development of new integrations) 20 new features 24 “improvements” 155 bug fixes

Page 7: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

Architectural Changes Converted from custom injection framework to Spring Lots of refactoring:

Storage plugin model Network plugin model API implementation refactored (remains compatible)

There’s a theme here: We are making CloudStack more flexible, both for developers and operators…

Page 8: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

New Features in 4.1API, UI and Integration Options: AWS style regions Event pub-sub framework (RabbitMQ implementation) Advanced search within the UI API Server request throttling API Discoverer Service Users resetting their own passwords Users directly changing their API keys EC2 query API Cloudmonkey CLI

Page 9: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

New Features in 4.1Networking: Nicira integration adds L3 functionality Persistent networks without a running VM Autoscale (Netscaler implementation) Juniper SRX & F5 Big IP inline mode Egress FW rules for guest networks Open vSwitch support for KVM

Page 10: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

New Features in 4.1Compute: Support for passing custom VMX settings to vSphere on VM

create Adding and removing Virtual NICs from VMs Reset SSH key within a VM

Page 11: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

New Features in 4.1Storage: Volume resizing S3-backed secondary storage

Page 12: CloudStack 4.1, 4.2 and beyond

Great, That’s 4.1… What about 4.2? Many features proposed for 4.1 were moved to 4.2

(Remember that time-based release thing?) 58 New Features scheduled for 4.2!

16 of them are already finished, including testing Some of them won’t make the release (again, time-based!)

40 Improvements (same caveats as features)

secondary storage

Advanced Network zones Dedicating resources to domains

and accounts IP Address reservation w/o a
