Hi, so looking at this the UI itself is bitcloud which allows the user
to create vms which you trigger building via ansible?
is this bitcloud code custom or open source and useable ?

Hello René,

the UI you can see at this slide is our customer portal and is using ansible 
for any action. For listing information of VMs, storage, network and so on we 
are using the CloudStack API directly. All "write" actions like creating VM's 
and so will go through ansible.
So we are able to run complex scenarios in a single step. It just depends on 
the playbooks.

Regards,
Ingo

Thanks for sharing, very interesting.

Question: I wondered about the slide #17 in where we can see an UI. Is this a 
UI for a service on "top of Ansible"?

Thanks for clarification.

Thanks for sharing, very interesting.

this a UI for a service on "top of Ansible"?

Thanks for clarification.

Hello Mauricio,

we are using ansible for instance and application orchestration in one workflow.
Since this is all command line we created a portal as a user interface for the 
customer.
Some more details about ansible and the setup you'll find in the slides of my 
colleague Sebastian at CCC in Miami.

Since you're from Germany you might want to join the German usergroup as well.

Dear all,

we are rethinking our strategy on delivering services.
As we used our own framework, containing a lot of scripts, it is getting harder 
and harder to keep track with all requirements, billing and visibility.

I'm just wondering if or what orchestration do you guys use to manage your 
tenants for including delivery of instances and installing specific (mostly 
Windows) apps on it.
We are looking for a self-service store with multi-tier tenants.

Do you wrote everything up in our own? Or did you decide to separate Instance 
orchestration from application orchestration?
