The document discusses Apache CloudStack, an open-source Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solution, highlighting its capabilities in cloud management, storage, and networking. It elaborates on its development process and community contributions, along with the architecture and features of CloudStack, including hypervisor support and network flexibility. Additionally, it outlines upcoming events related to CloudStack in 2013 and invites collaborative contributions from the community.

Intro to CloudStack Build a Cloud Day
- 1. Apache CloudStack Sebastien Goasguen @sebgoa Build a Cloud Day, Feb 1st 2013 Ghent, Belgium
- 2. Big Thanks !
- 3. SaaS
- 4. PaaS…
- 5. IaaS…
- 6. IaaS challenges • Not out of the box by itself • Need a farm of hypervisors – Xen, KVM, VMware… • Need storage – For image catalogue – For volume/snapshot management • Need flexible network that can be configured on-demand – VLANS, no VLANS, existing net infra, SDN…
- 7. IaaS is really: • A Data Center Orchestrator – Data storage – Data movement – Data processing • That can: – Handle failures – Support large scale – Be programmed
- 8. DevOps • Bring your developers closer to the operations • Make your sys admins develop the apps • Move to Software Defined Data Center, Automate everything Dev: Ops: Java Shell IDE CLI
- 9. What is CloudStack ? • Open source Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solution. • “Programmable” Data Center orchestrator • Hypervisor agnostic (with addition of bare metal provisioning) • Support scalable storage (Ceph, RIAK CS…) • Support complex enterprise networking (e.g Firewall, load balancer, VPN, VPC…) • Multi-tenant
- 11. ASF
- 12. Apache Way • “Transparency, consensus, non- affiliation,respect for fellow developers, and meritocracy, in no specific order “
- 13. Apache Process • 100% community driven • New ideas, decisions only taken on mailing lists. Votes taken by community • Project led by Project Management Committee (PMC): – http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html – http://incubator.apache.org/guides/committer.html • Non committers get invited as committers: – http://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html
- 14. Apache Processes
- 15. What the ASF did to CloudStack ?
- 16. Contributions Examples: Sungard: Announced that 6 developers were joining the Apache project Schuberg Philis: Big contribution in building/packaging and Nicira support PCextreme: RBD/Ceph support Caringo: Support for own object store Basho: Devcloud packaging, S3 integration
- 17. • “A little bit about the internals”
- 18. A Very Flexible IaaS Platform Compute Hypervisor Storage Block & Object Primary Storage Secondary Storage Network Network & Network Services http://www.slideshare.net/cloudstack/cloudstack-architecture
- 19. Architecture / Language • Java application • Tomcat6, Axis2, Maven build + ant – Ant going away in 4.1 • Moving towards a plugin architecture
- 20. Releases • Apache CloudStack 4.0 released in November • Time based releases – Rather slip features but guarantee release • Apache CloudStack 4.1 planned for March 22nd. Feature Freeze Yesterday... • 4.2 most likely in July
- 21. CloudStack Cloud Architecture Internet Internet Hypervisor is the basic unit of CloudStack Management scale. Server Zone 1 Cluster consists of one ore more hosts of same L3 core L3 core hypervisor All hosts in cluster have access Pod 1 Access Layer Access Layer Pod N to shared (primary) storage Secondary …. Storage Pod is one or more clusters, Cluster N usually with L2 switches. Availability Zone has one or …. more pods, has access to secondary storage. Cluster 1 One or more zones represent Host 11 Host cloud Primary Storage Host 22 Host

- 23. Networking • Extremely flexible to: – Provide isolation with VLANs – Provide isolation at L3 with shared L2 (scalability) – Support hardware devices that exposes API – Deployed on existing networking infrastructure – Support new networking paradigm (SDN) • Support for Nicira Virtual P • Extensive use of Open VSwitch

- 25. New Isolation types ?
- 26. Hugo’s talk
- 27. Storage • Primary Storage: – Anything that can be mounted on the node of a cluster. – Cluster LVM…iSCSI… – Holds disk images of running VMs – Support for CEPH with KVM hypervisors • Secondary Storage: – Available across the zone – Holds snapshots and templates (image repo) – Can use Openstack swift or any object store (Gluster FS…) – New support for Caringo • Can use NFS for both to start • Storage Abstraction refactoring underway

Editor's Notes
- #16: Caveat: A contributor is identified by sending a single email on the –dev or –users mailing list. This graphs plots the number of unique email addresses
- #17: Even though this does not really makes sense because companies don’t have a standing with ASF, individuals do.
- #32: http://download.cloud.com/releases/3.0.3/api_3.0.3/TOC_Root_Admin.html
