Hello everybody,

We are happy to announce that ~okeanos-knossos enters its beta testing phase today!

After a successful alpha phase, we are now inviting new users to test the new service and send us their suggestions and feedback.

~okeanos-knossos service is a brand new cloud computing service, totally independent of ~okeanos. It is hosted at GRNET's new data center in Knossos, Crete, and offers:

• virtual machines with upgraded processing and memory features
• high-speed 10Gbit ethernet connection
• new storage system (userspace rbd with cache) with improved performance

You should keep in mind some basic differences between ~okeanos-knossos and ~okeanos service:
