Hi 隋震, *> Is there a architecture diagram for jclouds* *how to make jclouds to support a cloud service by other vendor?* I don't think there's an *architecture diagram* per se, but the link[1] provided by Andrew generally describes the high-level view of jclouds.
Assuming Aliyun exposes it's compute API via HTTP, then the jclouds-labs[2] contains similar provider/API implementations under incubation (I followed DigitalOcean and Docker before). Here is where you create your PR for aliyun as well. Developing the provider won't necessarily require you to *master* the jclouds architecture. Nevertheless let me try to describe stuff you're going to implement (not exhaustive): - ComputeServiceAdapter[3] - *Metadata[4] - declares modules (dependencies, powered by guice) - *Functions[5] - to convert aliyun-domain to jclouds-specific domain - Aliyun-specific API, like described here [6] Finally, I suggest implementing simpler APIs first, i.e.: Images or HardwareProfile APIs in your first PR. This way, reviewers can then guide using comments, code parts that need to change. HTH. Happy Holidays!
