CloudStack has been part of the ASF since April 2012, when Citrix donated the technology to the open-source foundation. The release is announced almost after 8 months of diligent efforts.
“This release has been driven by the people operating CloudStack clouds,” Rohit Yadav, Apache CloudStack v4.11 Release Manager stated. “Along with great new features, v4.11 brings several important structural changes such as better support for systemd and Java 8, migration to embedded Jetty, and a new and optimized Debian 9 based systemvm template.”
