Summary: Create a Juju Charm for Falcon
Key: FALCON-313
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-313
Project: Falcon
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: general
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.
Juju's strength is instant integration and scaling. Especially for Falcon this
would greatly help users see its immediate value in minutes. A Falcon charm
that would have existing relationships with the other charms like Hive, HBase,
Hadoop, Cassandra, Mongo, MySQL, etc. would allow anybody to quickly import and
export data in a controlled way between its existing data sources. The Falcon
charm could also easily integrate with the Logstash charm and as such get log
information from all other charms. There are many more solutions.
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.
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.
