As a late christmas gift we would like to hand out the new openQRM 4.3 release to you which comes together with a huge Cloud Computing Howto.
Illustrated by lots of screenshots this howto explains step-by-step how to setup a Cloud-Environment with openQRM. It also points out some cool features of the openQRM-Cloud like fully automatic deprovisioning, automatic creation of virtual machines and Cloud-Highavailability.
The new release 4.3 comes again with some major enhancements and security updates especially regarding the storage subsystem e.g. the confusing free-text deployment parameters were replaced by simple select-boxes which makes the deployment configuration much more easier. All root-filesystem mounts are now fully secured and authenticated by the appliance resource. Several feature-requests and bugs has been fixed too (please check the Changelog).
