             Summary: Create a Juju Charm for Apache Blur
                 Key: BLUR-336
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BLUR-336
             Project: Apache Blur
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Maarten Ectors


Juju (juju.ubuntu.com) is the default solution from Ubuntu to instantly deploy, 
integrate and scale software on any public cloud, private cloud or server. The 
magic behind Juju is called a charm. A charm can be written in any language. 
There are charms made in/with bash, python, java, chef, puppet, ansible, 
docker, etc. 

To give you a 1 minute demo just go to: 
https://jujucharms.com/sidebar/search/?text=instantBigDataNoSQL and 
drag-and-drop "demo: instant" from left to right and you will see all major Big 
Data and NoSQL solutions instantly deployed and integrated. Just click on 
Cassandra or Hadoop Slaves and change from 10 units to 100 units to scale to a 
100 node Cassandra or Hadoop cluster. This demo is not having a cloud doing the 
actual deployment but you would be able to do the exact same on AWS, HP Cloud, 
Azure, private OpenStack, bare-metal servers with maas.ubuntu.com and even on a 
local Ubuntu machine [provided it had a lot of memory and CPU]. Make any 
changes and see how you can instantly export a bundle and import it into 
another environment. For more info see juju.ubuntu.com/docs.

Juju's strength is instant integration and scaling. Especially for Blur this 
would greatly help users see its immediate strengths in minutes. A Blur charm 
that would have existing relationships with the other charms like Hadoop, 
Ganglia, etc. would allow anybody to instantly setup Blur if they already have 
an existing Hadoop cluster and automate ETL as well as monitoring. There are 
many more charms that could potentially be integrated.

PS Jean-Baptiste Onofre already is writing a Karaf charm so he can give some 
good guidance. Additionally at Ubuntu we are happy to give a free remote 
training on how to write charms.
