What's best about OpenNebula that people like is that it's easy to deploy. It's also easy to manage. It's interesting because people choose OpenNebula over other solutions because of the ease of management.
OpenNebula is a lightweight and customizable solution that integrates well with SAP Storage, offering features like live migration and effective scaling. Users appreciate its easy deployment and maintenance, but it lacks object storage, billing software, and a simple REST API. Some vital features, like backup, are limited to the enterprise edition. It relies on XML-RPC and lacks the efficiency of JSON outputs. Improvements are needed in hosting platform options and deployment processes.
