  Description     : cloud computing infrastructure

EUCALYPTUS - Elastic Utility Computing Architecture for Linking Your
Programs To Useful Systems - is an open-source software infrastructure
for implementing "cloud computing" on clusters. The current
interface to EUCALYPTUS is compatible with Amazon's EC2 interface,
but the infrastructure is designed to support multiple client-side
interfaces. EUCALYPTUS is implemented using commonly available Linux tools
and basic Web-service technologies making it easy to install and maintain.

Please also check for the availability of the packaging attempt
announced via ITP #505251, which are clients of a compatible commercial
alternative.

The Debian packaging is performed by upstream themselves. Please contact
Graziano Obertelli for details.
