Dear all,
We are proposingMegam - Cloud orchestrator for OpenNebula. Megam
leverages system configuration framework (Chef http://opscode.com) to
implement an orchestration engine to launch multiple composite cloud
application based on templates that are written using ruby code. The
templates are versioned and can be adopted to every vDC in Opennebula.
Our Roadmap.
Opennebulaoffers basic Cloud management including an intuitive
self-service interface. It is focused on the level of Infrastructure as
a Service.
Chefis DevOps software which can interface to OpenNebula and adds
several features such as lifecycle management for virtual machine images
and the possibility to deploy standardized middleware and applications.
These standardized software components provide platform services to the
application components built on top of them.
Our proposal is to have *Megam* provide cloud orchestration for
OpenNebula based on open standards like
TOSCA(http://docs.oasis-open.org/tosca/TOSCA/v1.0/os/TOSCA-v1.0-os.html). Megam
already provides ability to launch app/services today. The design
specifics for TOSCA will be released shortly.
As a first step we are building a chef plugin to OpenNebula, which can
stand up instances in OpenNebula using its templates.
Using this knife plugin for OpenNebula, an user can do the following,
* List the templates which are already created in OpenNebula.
* List the VMs which are already created either in OpenNebula or from
the knife plugin.
* Create a VM by instantiating the OpenNebula template. Chef bootstraps
the VM and applies a role.
Anxious to hear the communities feedback. Feel free to reach out to us
