At UC Santa Barbara a team of researchers led by Rich Wolski has created Elastic Utility Computing Architecture Linking Your Programs To Useful Systems or EUCALYPTUS, an open-source software providing much the same time, processing, and storage resource management for cloud computing systems.

The current interface to EUCALYPTUS is interface-compatible with Amazon.com's EC2 (arguably the most commercially successful Cloud computing service), but the infrastructure is designed to be modified and extended so that multiple client-side interfaces can be supported.

Overall, the goal of the EUCALYPTUS project is to foster community research and development of Elastic/Utility/Cloud service implementation technologies, resource allocation strategies, service level agreement (SLA) mechanisms and policies, and usage models. Although open source, the software has been commercialized as well and features enterprise-level solutions at eucalyptus.com.
