Our infrastructure ... … as of 2013

Our infrastructureas of 2013

rented hardware around 75 root servers desktop machines stability issues network outages surround sound

What we wanted ...

What we wanted

desktop free servers network under our control virtual application servers flexibility and scaleability opensource software surround sound wasn't a must

What we looked at ... … or: the quest for the virtual grail

VMware vSphere

the classic choice a lot of experience „it simply works“ not opensource license costs no cloud bursting no chef integration Windows needed

KVM

opensource simple setup manual management no cloud bursting no fancy features

Openstack

opensource state of the art huge community the Ubuntu way far away from classic virtualization

Why Opennebula?

Opennebulapainless

easy setup works perfect with classic proved technologies initial productive setup in < week strong community and support

Opennebulaflexible

use it like classic virtual environment think cloudish if you like extend with own logic use different „hypervisors“ integrated into software automation

Opennebulascaleable

add nodes if needed cover load peaks in external clouds use highly scaleable storage backends

Runtastic Setup

Two Opennebula Setups Internal infrastructure & Development

use all the hardware we could find Productive Cluster

professional Cisco + Netapp hardware

OpennebulaCurrent productive setup

30 Cisco UCS KVM nodes Ubuntu NFS shared storage on two Netapp Filers Cisco Nexus 10G network no contextualization at the moment > 250 virtual machines most VMs „classic“ persistent images

OpennebulaCurrent projects

extend with Cisco Bladecenter nodes Implement Ceph as storage backend Cleanup our Opennebula Chef cookbooks

and make them public migrate Percona DB to virtual MongoDB

OpennebulaFuture Runtastic plans

add nodes LXC additionally to KVM add nodes Switch to contextualization add nodes Prepare application servers for

OneFlow auto-scaling add nodes
