Synnefo is designed with simplicity, scalability and stability in mind.

Furthermore, although it can be deployed in small configurations, it was

initially designed to address large installation problems.

The following figure shows the whole Synnefo stack and how it interacts with

multiple Ganeti clusters and the storage backends. Synnefo decouples the cloud

from the cluster layer enhancing robustness, scalability, and ease of

administration and upgrades without impacting VM stability. As shown in the
