On the other hand, I was thinking about adding a Provisioning/Compute
Service for Karaf. The idea is to easily provision and bootstrap
Apache
Karaf runtime (vanilla or custom) on a cloud provider.
If I understand this correctly, the idea is firstly to use jclouds to
install (?) a Karaf runtime on a cloud provider, then expose that
runtime as a compute service in its own right?
That would be an interesting idea that I don't think has been tried
previously - in what sense (question from someone with little Karaf
background here) does Karaf fit the model of a cloud compute service?
What type of "things" can you provision in Karaf, for example?
