Re: Jcloud and openstack relation

 

Yes - jclouds and OpenStack Java are both bindings to be used to launch
and orchestrate cloud instances. Neither are aimed at running Java in
any particular way inside of a cloud instance. Honestly, I don't see any
reason that normal jvms shouldn't work just fine in a cloud server.
