Today marks the second day of CloudFest, the #1 internet infrastructure event in the world. As you may know, Apache CloudStack is an exhibitor at the conference, with a number of community members representing the technology and community.

We are excited to announce that for the first year, Apache CloudStack will be exhibiting at the world’s largest cloud industry event. As an exhibitor, we will showcase the power of one of the leading open-source IaaS management solutions. People from leading cloud providers, MSPs and telcos will have the chance to discover more about the capabilities and use cases of CloudStack as a turnkey solution for cloud management.

2022 was a hugely successful year for the Apache CloudStack community. We collaborated on a successful major release - Apache CloudStack 4.17 bringing a bunch of new capabilities and improvements, as well as created multiple new CloudStack integrations. As well as this, the community created two minor releases as part of the LTS programme.

The community also held two successful conferences, one of which being the first in-person CloudStack Collaboration Conference since the pandemic. The new &"Year in Review" blogs series encourages us to reflect on the community’s achievements, and thus lets us brainstorm the ways we will further develop Apache CloudStack in all facets in the new year. Find out what we managed to achieve together and what is coming in 2023 in this recap article!

For the first time, the CloudStack Collaboration Conference was held as a hybrid event. It was streamed live on Hubilo for those who were not able to attend in-person. As it was the first time the community had collaborated in-person since the pandemic, we managed to collect a record number of physical attendees!

The conference hosted over 370 participants and 48 speakers from 32 countries. In total, there were 38 sessions from leading CloudStack experts, users and skilful engineers from the open-source world. These sessions included: technical talks, user stories, new features and integrations presentations and more.

Apache CloudStack is thrilled to share the word of the upcoming CloudStack European User Group Virtual Conference - the virtual get together for the European CloudStack Community. The event is taking place on 7th April 2022, where you will be able to meet the leading CloudStack experts, users and skilful engineers from the open-source world. 

It's the beginning of the new year, and here the Apache CloudStack community shares its predictions about the state of open-source technology and the future of Cloud/IaaS. While some well-established trends (such as the migration to hybrid cloud environments and containerization) will continue in 2022, the potential for disruption caused by the ongoing pandemic will drive IT to accelerated change and improvement.

Apache CloudStack 4.16 is the latest release of the cloud management platform from the Apache Software Foundation and is a result of months of work from the development community. 4.16 is an LTS (Long Term Support) release so will be maintained for a period of 18 months after release.

For a 9th year in a row, the global Apache CloudStack community is organising its major event - CloudStack Collaboration Conference, running from November 8 to November 12. Due to the pandemic, the event will happen entirely virtually. With this move, the Apache CloudStack community will enable even more members and people interested in the technology to learn more about it, its latest capabilities and integrations.
