Happy 9th Birthday!

Today is the 9th anniversary of the founding of the OpenNebula open source project. We still remember the early days of OpenNebula, when we decided to start an open-source project to grow, distribute and support the software prototypes that we developed to support our research in virtualization management on distributed infrastructures. Yet here we are, nine years later, with one of the most successful projects in the open cloud ecosystem.

OpenNebula has grown into a widely-used user-driven project, with lots of examples of production use in academia, research and industry, over 100K downloads from the project repositories in the last year, more than 1,500 clouds connected to our marketplace, and large-scale infrastructures with tens of data centers and hundreds of thousands of cores. We are very proud of this growth as the only fully-open enterprise-ready management platform to build clouds.

None of it would be possible without your help, the hard work of thousands of users and contributors!
