Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Nimbus
Nimbus is an open-source toolkit focused on providing Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) capabilities to the scientific community. It uses libvirt for communication with all KVM and Xen virtual machines.

EMOTIVE Cloud
The EMOTIVE middleware allows executing tasks and providing virtualized environments to the users with Xen, KVM or VirtualBox hypervisor. EMOTIVE main feature is VM management with different scheduling policies. It can be also used as a cloud provider and is very easy to extend thanks to its modular Web Services architecture.

Sure - we're always glad to advertise clients.   Which category does it
best belong in?  Perhaps IaaS?  Would you mind writing up a paragraph or
so about the project, or is this blurb from the project home page good
enough:
