We are really excited to hear the news that voting has passed less than 20 hours ago and Apache Stratos project is now officially in the incubator. Apache Stratos will be a polyglot PaaS framework and it will be possible to run on any IaaS supported by jclouds . Interestingly, the jclouds is also currently an Apache incubating project.
