Cloud Hosting

[nigel]

Just wondering if anyone here has ventured into setting up their own cloud server environment?

I bought a heap of cheap servers that have 4 or 2 processors and up to 128 GB of ram and looking into creating a cloud infrastructure using OnAPP. It integrates well into WHMCS too allowing customers to reboot, re-image, restore backups etc.

I need to get a little bit more hardware, take it all over to the data centre and then setup everything up.

If anyone here has any experience or comments about setting this kind of thing up, I would be very keen to hear about it.

I will be able to setup complete servers with any control panel software, OS, hardware etc. On app have about 100 different read-to-go OS images allowing your customers to instantly setup servers and with the stuff I've got, I should be able to setup 20 to 50 virtual servers.
