It has the following features: * Support for bhyve and QEMU. * Any x86 OS as a guest (tested only on QEMU) * Install, import, start, stop and reboot instances safely (guest OS needs to be controlled independently) * Clone, backup/export, delete stopped instances 100% safely * Keep track of all your instances on one screen * All transactions that change instance state are password protected at all critical stages * A growing number of general purpose and specialized instances/applications are available for PetiteCloud What's new in 0.2.1: * QEMU support * Several bugs related to resource limits and the WebUI were fixed For more info see http://www.petitecloud.org P.S. Support for QEMU does not diminish our support for Bhyve. Our experience with QEMU in fact shows that Bhyve is on the right track. Note also that Bhyve is and will remain our prefered HyperVisor for testing PetiteCloud (PetiteCloud is developed on a PetiteCloud instance that uses Bhyve). We will be posting in the next few days a comparison between the two. We will also point out what features we feel Bhyve needs to compete with QEMU in all areas. -- Aryeh M.
