OGF29 – Cloud Standards Interoperability Demo OCCI, CDMI & OpenNebula Chicago, June 20-22, 2010

Agenda 1.Intro – Krishna Sankar 2.CDMI – Mark Carlson 3.CDMI iPad Client Demo – Rich Ramos 4.OCCI – Thijs Metch 5.JavaFX Client Demo – David Moolenaar

Cloud Interoperability Always on the top on everybodys mind – Just after security, compliance & control This demo is a first step Not how well the bears dance, but the fact that they could dance ! CDMI/OCCI working across the storage and compute clouds – CDMI Storage primitives (incl allocation, access, rules, policies, constraints …) – OCCI – CSP interface

The Complete CDMI Picture

Model for the CDMI Interface The resources which are accessed through the RESTful interface

CDMI Specification SNIA Architecture (industry standard): – – Implementations are under way 8

CDMI iPad Demo Rich Ramos Individual

CDMI iPad Client: Goals 1.Primarily Instructional on CDMI 2.Not General Purpose Cloud Storage Client 3.Show Network Interactions 4.Show Object Information 5.Provide CDMI Object Library (future)

What is OCCI? Open Cloud Computing Interface – Becoming OGF proposed standard OCCI provides features to identify, link and categorize dumb RESTful resources OCCI-infrastructure defines kinds, actions, & attributes to work with virtual machines

CDMI in Cloud Computing 12 A single cloud computing infrastructure can implement both the OCCI and CDMI interfaces The infrastructure abstracts the configuration of the networking and virtual machine details and uses the standard interface merely to define connectivity A cloud computing client can then utilize the interfaces to both specify the data requirements and then use that data for guests

OpenNebula Open-Source Toolkit for Building Cloud Infrastructures Open Source Created and Supported at the University of Madrid under Dr. Rubén S. Montero & Dr. Ignacio M. Llorente. CDMI Integration Provided by Orchestrates storage, network and virtualization technologies to enable the dynamic placement of multi-tier services on distributed infrastructures, combining both data center resources and remote cloud resources, according to allocation policies Provides internal and Cloud administration and user interfaces for the full management of the IaaS Cloud platform Private Cloud: Management of virtual infrastructure in the data- center or cluster Hybrid Cloud : Combination of private with Cloud resources Public Cloud: Cloud interfaces for the full management of services

The Client A Standards Based Cloud Client Used JavaFX Developed by R2AD, LLC Sponsored by DISA CTO cloud.r2ad.net

Client Requirements Simple/Small – Implement use-case (first with simple get/put) – Keep UI footprint small – potential phone app – UI became more sophisticated with experience April 2010May 2010 Flat list to Tree Added Tabs Icons Edit Resource Location Learning JavaFX Authentication Models Added Log June 2010

Client Interactions Required to communicate with OCCI + CDMI – Clear specifications and examples very helpful – Used local test server to code up initial GET/PUT – Use case driven (keeping goals on target) Login Create Storage Use case Get Compute Get Storage Create Virtual Machine Use case Manage Cloud OCCI server CDMI server http XML JSON

JavaFX Client Demo

Client Lesson Learned Code for network not being reliable – Let user cancel requests. Timeouts. – Use local cache or persistence? Use of remote admin tools helpful – ssh terminal, vSphere admin console – Virtual Desktop Interface (VDI) Teleclient Solution w/Sun Secure Global Desktop or VNC Virtual Machines for servers helpful – Snapshots, transportability, etc. Way Ahead: – Make code more efficient (reduce server calls, parsing) – More integration with OCCI/CDMI – more features. security – Looking for feedback and chance to develop more
