A practical guide on FI-LAB Cloud. We will show the usage of the FI-LAB Cloud portal so that you will be able to deploy and access to virtual machines, create containers and objects as well as instantiate blueprints (VMs together with software)

 Create your account in lab.fi-ware.eu
 Enter in the Cloud Portal
 Create your keypair (private/private key)
 Deploy your instance
 Add a public IP
 Open ports to the VM

5. Enter your email and password
to access to the FI-LAB.
If you do not have it or forgot it,
sign up or request for a new one.

11. Deploying components for your application
• Deploying applications and not only Servers.
•
Ad hoc installation (not template usage).
• Managing applications in Servers (install, uninstall, configure, snapshot…).
• Deploying different environments for that applications.

12. Deploy example
Blueprint template: fiware1
Servers: 2-5
• Blueprint Template: platform specification
to be deployed.
• Tier: Each kind of software and server to
be deployed.
• Each Tier can be deployed in one or
several servers (e.g. tomcat, 2-5 servers).
• Blueprint Instance: Deployed in the
testbed.
Tier 1: Tomcat
Server: 1
Server: 1
Context Broker
Tier 2: Context Broker
Tier 3: MongoDB
Context Broker

13. Demo
You can open the Catalog of
Blueprint Template or create one
from the scratch.
Press the option
“Blueprint Templates”
from menu
12

14. Demo
You should introduce the
“Name” and the “Description”.
13

15. Demo
To add new Tier, press
“DemoSantander” name.
14

16. Demo
After press “Add Tier” you see
this windows to define
the servers of this tier.
You must define a Keypair
to access to those servers.
Install software pressing
the mouse right click.
15

17. Demo
You should specify the
maximum, minimum and current
number of servers
16

18. Demo
Press “Action” and select
“Lauch Template” to launch
the Instance.
17

19. Demo
You should specify the “Name”
and “Description” for
your blueprint.

20. Demo
Firstly, we need to instantiate
The servers.

21. Demo
Secondly, the installation
of the software.

22. Demo
Pressing the name you can
see the tiers of this blueprint.
Finally, if all was ok.

27. Object Storage Authentication
 http://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Object_Storage__User_and_Programmers_Guide
 Authentication to get initial token
username='email@company.com' password='mypassword' curl -d '{"auth": {"passwordCredentials":
{"username":"'$username'", "password":"'$password'"}}}' -H 'Content-type: aplication/json' http://cloud.lab.fiware.eu:4730/v2.0/tokens -vvv
 Use initial token to get tenant
curl -H 'x-auth-token: '$token http://cloud.lab.fi-ware.eu:4730/v2.0/tenants
 Authenticate tenant to get token for Object Storage
curl -d '{"auth": {"passwordCredentials": {"username":"'$username'", "password":"'$password'"},
"tenantId":"'$tenantId'"}}' -H 'Content-type: aplication/json' http://cloud.lab.fi-ware.eu:4730/v2.0/tokens
 Object Storage URL
http://130.206.82.9:8080/v1/AUTH_tenantId
