OpenCloudware

Towards a PaaS management stack over multiple clouds

Summary

The main way to “go cloud” has proved to be, for security and economic

reasons, hybrid: mixing private with public.

Moving to Cloud Software Management then requires to manage the

lifecycle of applications over different cloud providers: mask the

heterogeneit,; automate the deployment whatever the application

technology and execution environment, etc.

This is what tackles OpenCloudware, which aims at enabling flexible

multi-cloud applications thanks to a full automated think-build-run chain.

What is OpenCloudware?



_{French collaborative research project}



_{Development of software modules for building a IaaS agnostic}

Dev to PaaS Enterprise Grade Infrastructure platform



_{Enables to easily build, generate and operate enterprise}

distributed applications

for deployment on any cloud



_{Their Modeling, Assembly and Build}



_{Their Deployment and Operation (PaaS)}



_{On Multiple Infrastructure (Multi-IaaS)}



_{3 years (Jan 2012 – Dec 2014)}



_{Supported by the French FSN (Fonds National pour la Société}

Blueprint: “Meta-data describing one or more instances and

resources to deploy a complete solution”

Example : Service Plan Builder

vApp Creation & Configuration



_{Blueprint contains one or more layers}



_{Layers contain a set of cloud resources:}

>

_{Reference to a template (meta-data used to create a machine image)}

>

_{H/W settings (cores, memory)}

>

_{Security Groups}

Example : Service Plan Builder

vApp Creation & Configuration

Layer #1

Layer #2

H/W Settings + # instances to be deployed

Technological challenges

 End-to-end

Modeling

:

Full stack from OS to applications and

configurations incl. SLA, PaaS services and IaaS services

 End-to-end

Automation :

Life cycle automation from Dev to Cloud to

Cloud orchestration



Build vApps (OVF) :

Service Factory for visual design and automated

generation of multi-tier server templates



Autonomic management :

Dynamic cloud software (VMs) evolutions,

allowing elasticity, Green IT optimisation, reliability...



Multi-IaaS :

Portability at the IaaS

level, IaaS Agnostic services



Security

: Isolation of applications and security, identity and access

control management
