One major event taken place in preparation for the upcoming release of Eucalyptus 3.4 is that Eucalyptus Console has found its own nest in GitHub (https://github.com/eucalyptus/eucalyptus-console) and is available as an independent project. This separation aims Eucalyptus Console to be developed and released at a different pace than its much bigger core system, Eucalyptus (https://github.com/eucalyptus/eucalyptus). Having faster cycles for the project expects Eucalyptus Console to be able to deliver patches and introduce new features in a much responsive manner.

Another appealing characteristic of Eucalyptus Console for this release is that now it can be used as a stand-alone application — running on a developer’s laptop — to manage the cloud resources on AWS. When provided a pair of an access key and a secret key into Eucalyptus Console’s login window, the console sets the end-point to AWS and allows the user to interact with the AWS cloud under the provided AWS credentials.

For many AWS enthusiasts and developers, this new Eucalyptus Console project on GitHub (https://github.com/eucalyptus/eucalyptus-console) offers an opportunity to develop a personal, customizable AWS management console for specific demands and use cases. Composed of a client-side web interface written in Javascript, using Backbone.js and Rivets.js, and a server-side proxy written in Python, using Boto and Tornado, Eucalyptus Console is designed to deliver the maximum flexibility when it comes to adding new features and adopting other latest web technologies.
