13

Core Services }  Nova (Compute) Manages the lifecycle of compute instances

in an OpenStack environment. Responsibilities include spawning, scheduling and decommissioning of machines on demand.

}  Nova-Network (Neutron) Enables network connectivity as a service for other OpenStack services, such as OpenStack Compute. Provides an API for users to define networks and the attachments into them. Has a pluggable architecture that supports many popular networking vendors and technologies.

}  Glance (Image Service): Stores and retrieves virtual machine disk images. OpenStack Compute makes use of this during instance provisioning.

14

Core Services }  Keystone (Identity) Provides an authentication and

authorization service for other OpenStack services. Provides a catalog of endpoints for all OpenStack services.

}  Swift Object (Storage) Stores and retrieves arbitrary unstructured data objects via a RESTful, HTTP based API. It is highly fault tolerant with its data replication and scale out architecture. Its implementation is not like a file server with mountable directories.

}  Cinder (Block Storage) Provides persistent block storage to running instances. Its pluggable driver architecture facilitates the creation and management of block storage devices.

15

Additional Services }  Horizon (Dashboard) Provides a web-based self-service portal to

interact with underlying OpenStack services, such as launching an instance, assigning IP addresses and configuring access controls.

}  Ceilometer (Telemetry) Monitors and meters the OpenStack cloud for billing, benchmarking, scalability, and statistical purposes.

}  Heat (Orchestration) Orchestrates multiple composite cloud applications by using either the native HOT template format or the AWS CloudFormation template format, through both an OpenStack-native REST API and a CloudFormation-compatible Query API.

}  Trove (Database) Trove is a database-as-a-service provisioning relational and non-relational database engines

16

Additional Services }  Sahara (Elastic Map Reduce) Sahara aims to provide users with

simple means to provision Hadoop clusters by specifying several parameters like Hadoop version, cluster topology, nodes hardware details and a few more. After a user fills all the parameters, Sahara deploys the cluster in a few minutes. Sahara also provides means to scale already provisioned cluster by adding and removing worker nodes on demand

}  Ironic Bare-Metal Provisioning  

}  Zaqar Messaging Service  

}  Manila Shared File systems  

}  Designate DNS Service  

}  Barbican Key Management  

17

Additional Services }  Magnum Containers Magnum is an OpenStack API service

developed by the OpenStack Containers Team making container orchestration engines such as Docker and Kubernetes available as first class resources in OpenStack.

}  Murano Application Catalog The Murano Project introduces an application catalog to OpenStack, enabling application developers and cloud administrators to publish various cloud-ready applications in a browsable categorized catalog.

}  Congress Governance Congress is an OpenStack project to provide policy as a service across any collection of cloud services in order to offer governance and compliance for dynamic infrastructures.

18

Usage and measure }  What are the terms and conditions of usage?

}  all offered services are 100% based on open source software? }  other? }  do we want to prohibit non open source software usage? (question of

level)

}  How to measure the success? }  Usage statistic of resources (e.g. number of VMs) per customer group? }  Usage statistic of resources (e.g. number of VMs) per offered service? }  List of installed software and licensed for
