Billing can be done at either VDC or Enterprise level.

Abiquo events notifier

The Abiquo Events Notifier is a Python application that accesses the Abiquo Database and sends emails to notify users of events in Abiquo. You can configure the users, as well as the types of events that will trigger notification emails. By default, the Email Notifier accesses the Abiquo Database every five seconds but you should tune this value for your installation. You can run the Abiquo Events Notifier on the Abiquo Server.

Template-repository

The template-repository application is a side-project developed to work with Abiquo. It provides a user-friendly interface for creating and managing a template repository. A template repository contains different virtual machine template definitions ready for users to download into the Abiquo appliance library. A template repository can be shared by multiple Abiquo datacenters, allowing convenient centralized template management. The template-repository application is implemented with version 1.2.4 of the Play! Framework, a lightweight Java Web framework. You can install it with the Play! Framework or download the .war file and install it with a Tomcat or other web application server.
