Introduction
============
ucloud is a modern, IPv6 first virtual machine management system.
It is an alternative to `OpenNebula <https://opennebula.org/>`_,
`OpenStack <https://www.openstack.org/>`_ or
`Cloudstack <https://cloudstack.apache.org/>`_.
ucloud is the first cloud management system that puts IPv6
first. ucloud also has an integral ordering process that we missed in
existing solutions.
The ucloud documentation is separated into various sections for the
different use cases:
* :ref:`The user guide <user-guide>` describes how to use an existing
ucloud installation
* There are :ref:`setup instructions <setup-install>` which describe on how to setup a new
ucloud instance
* :ref:`The admin guide <admin-guide>` describe on how to
administrate ucloud
