A new development release of Juju, 2.1-beta4, is here!

As we push to Juju 2.1 there are a couple of items that would be really
good to get testing feedback on!

'Model migration' is key to ongoing easy and automatic upgrades on the
server. By migrating the model from a 2.n to 2.n+1 controller you will
have a very safe upgrade with rollback if safety tests don't pass. We'd
really like to help the Juju operator community move forward with Juju
releases more quickly, since there are loads of performance and
operations improvements landing at the moment, so please test model
migration. For fun, you should be able to move the same model from one
controller to another and back very reliably.

Many folks have easier access to vSphere than public or private cloud
infrastructure, so we'd like to hear how you find the add-cloud and
bootstrap experiences, and how big bundles like kubernetes and hadoop
perform for you there.

Try 'juju add-cloud' and see how it goes!

Conjure-up is proving to be a superb front-end to Juju for initial
deployments of complex stuff like OpenStack. Please do try it, possibly
with Kubernetes or OpenStack. A 'spell' is a bundle with a few bells on
it, so if you have bundles that would benefit from conjuring up then
please shout if you need a hand crafting them.
