It's unfortunate (and likely economically sensible) that most cloud providers dont offer Power hardware. Running Oracle on Power systems is probably the only reason anyone still runs AIX these days, nd many orgs haven't gone to the cloud because of huge Power/AIX footprints. Even without a ULA in play, licensing on Power systems is significantly more attractive than running on Intel when it comes to Oracle.

Is the software to create a public cloud on Power chips a thing? Can Xen run on power? Or OpenStack?

I know OpenStack/KVM is up and running on Power, not sure about Xen.
