Xen Orchestra (XAPI and XenServer from the web)
summary
Xen Orchestra is a web management stack that connects a persistent Node.js backend (xo-server) to a single‑page backbone/websocket UI (xo-web) and talks to XAPI/XenServer. It ingests XAPI events into a local cached XAPI events store, reduces client connections, and exposes VM consoles via noVNC (works in Firefox). Distributed as a Debian XVA appliance, alpha d3js visualizations exist, user ACLs are partial, and VM creation, LDAP and RRD graphs are next.
