Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud is designed to simplify the process of building and managing an internal cloud for businesses of any size, thereby enabling companies to create their own self-service infrastructure.
Set-up
* Users can install Ubuntu 9.04 Server Edition and enable partner repositories.
* Ubuntu Server Edition offers easy package deployment and configuration.
* Users can configure multiple clusters into a single cloud.
Cloud
* Interface compatibility with EC2 reduces the cost of learning a new interface when moving from a private to a public cloud. It enables users to adopt popular management tools for private cloud computing and to develop skills using the same techniques that they would deploy on Amazon's popular public cloud.

* Support for elastic IP assignment enables users to assign static public IPs to any virtual instance.
* SOAP with WS-security ensures secure internal communication.

Management
