Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 2 Summary Resource abstraction – representing resources in a unified way; generic management without knowledge of the underlying resource access protocol; extensibility; modeling with regards to Cloud requirements SOA – OSGi approach; lightweight service architecture; high dynamics Distribution topology – Cluster to Cluster management; One Management Cluster per datacenter

Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 3 Typically consist of one or more Datacenters physically spread in strategic geographical locations Cloud Systems Physics

Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 5 Roles Managed Datacenter Nodes, Devices and Logical Units – hardware/virtual resources, service applications, configurations, tenant users, maintenance procedures, etc. Management Server (MS) Cluster – handles directly the management of resources: maintains resource information, enables monitoring, schedules management operations, performs filtering Remote Access Servers (RAS) – consolidate results from MS Clusters and provide administrator access (via GUI or Web Browser) to management and monitoring functionality

Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 6 Resource abstraction – the Control Unit State Variables – name-value pairs defining the Control Unit state. Control Unit Actions – the operations available upon the resource. Constructors! and Destructors Control Unit Metadata – describing the Interface - State Variables and Actions Control Unit Type – a class of resources having the same Interface and respectively – metadata. There may be many instances of the same type (having the same interface), which are in different state (different values of the state variables) Control Unit ID – identifier in the scope of the Control Unit Type Type: My ApplicationType: User ID: foo State Variables: Status: running SecureMode: enabled Actions: stop() start() setSecureMode( boolean ) ID: john.smith State Variables: username: john.smith roles: view apps, change configs Actions: set ( String ) addRole( String ) removeRole( String )

Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 7 Control Unit Hierarchies Resources are naturally grouped in relations => We define Control Unit Hierarchies – parent and sub Control Units Host Control Units – roots of hierarchies Components Control Units – belong to certain Resource Host Control Unit Identification - 4 elements: (host type, host id, control unit type, control unit id)

Radko Zhelev, IPP BAS Generic Resource Framework for Cloud Systems 25 Events Handling Two known approaches: Publish/subscribe – publishers send events without knowledge about the listeners. (convenience for the publishers) Subscribe/publish – events are fired in response to a subscriptions (influences efficiency) Our approach: Admin applications subscribe into the System – subscription filters are spanned to all physical locations (MS Hosts and Control Unit Agents) Control Unit Providers fire all state change events into the System The System decides whether notifications should be delivered
