Why use cloud?From a dev point of view the process looks like:
• Start new project
• File ticket for resources....wait....wait....wait
• Get resources, that aren't configured....wait...
• Get network access.....get permission....wait
• Get things done.
![Page 6: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why use cloud?
• What IT Ops provides is not what developers want.
• Does not maximize value for the business
![Page 7: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Get rid of the waiting!● Remove constraints - developers empowered
to get things done. ● Agility● Enforce automated process instead of manual
ones
![Page 8: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Orchestration/Automation● Sysadmins and network admins, still do so much
manually.
● IaaS does not solve all the problems.

Overview
![Page 10: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Overview• CloudStack is an
open source Infrastructure-as –a-Service (IaaS) orchestration platform that enables users to build, manage and deploy compute cloud environments.
![Page 11: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Overview - GUI
CloudStack offers an administrator's Web interface, used for provisioning and managing the cloud, as well as an end-user's Web interface, used for running VMs and managing VM templates.
![Page 12: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Overview - API
CloudStack Web Services Query HTTP API is loosely based on the REST architecture and allows developers to create new management solutions or integrate existing systems with CloudStack. It returns both XML and JSON response formats.Documented at:
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api
![Page 13: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Overview – API - EC2
CloudStack also has a native but separate EC2 API Interface. Documented at:
http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/api
![Page 14: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Overview – API – Google Compute Engine
A few CloudStack developers created a lightweight GCE API translation layer as well. Currently a separate project. Downloadable from:

Usage● Jevons Paradox
● Plenty of waste possible as well - will developers always destroy a machine when they are done with it?
● Important to show what projects and groups are consuming resources as well as how they are using those resources
![Page 45: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Storage● Commodity storage – if you can get away with it.
● Local storage tends to be the best mix of cheap and performant
● No failover - do you need it? If so, use something enterprise-y.
![Page 46: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Commodity Networking● Layer 3 isolation - (aka Security Groups)
● VLANs - (not as commodity, but still relatively cheap on a small scale, but not at a large scale)
● Virtual routers (provide DHCP, DNS, LB, Firewall, PF, NAT, etc)
![Page 47: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Commodity Hypervisor● If your scale is below 100 hypervisors – use what you
know – and if you don't know use KVM
● If you have more than 100 hypervisors you should be seriously evaluating XenServer – there's a reason Amazon, Rackspace, and Google use Xen-based hypervisors.
● Use VMware if you already know it. Or have some demands.
● Easy to mix and match if necessary.
![Page 48: Building a big IaaS cloud with Apache CloudStackpeople.apache.org/~ke4qqq/bigiaas.pdf · •Primary Storage – Cluster level storage for VMs – Connected directly to hosts – NFS,](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052104/603f633821867013f96bb2ab/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Limiting Resources● Limit the number of VMs, snapshots, IP addresses, etc.
● Use 'projects' to share resources● This means most folks will never have
problems, but heaviest users will not be able to interrupt service for others.
