Constantino Vázquez Blanco, Cloud Researcher for OpenNebula (http://www.opennebula.org/), says:

Cloud computing is an over-bloated concept, where many different technologies and software are squeezed in. Our solution focuses on the Infrastructure as a Service layer, where virtualization is playing a crucial role in the evolution of traditional data centers. In short, our solution is the key to the door of the next paradigm that will rule the running of tomorrow’s data center.
