Aeolus is a project that aims to provide cloud portability and proliferation by hiding individual cloud infrastructure and allowing resources to be remixed. It consists of several component projects including a HA Manager, Conductor, Composer, and Orchestrator. The Conductor manages resource pools and placement across clouds, while the Composer generates cloud-independent images. Aeolus integrates with projects like Apache Deltacloud to provide cross-cloud APIs and abstraction.

7. What ? Aeolus is not a cloud

8. What ? Aeolus is not OpenStack (they are complimentary)

9. Cloud Portability Deploy from generic images

10. Cloud Portability Uniform set of services

11. Cloud Portability Consistent view

12. Cloud Proliferation Hide individual clouds

13. Cloud Proliferation Remix resources

14. What ?

15. Component Projects HA Manager Conductor Aeolus Composer Orchestrator

16. Conductor Build pools from cloud resources

17. Conductor Access control (users/permissions) Quotas on pools

18. Conductor Policy-driven placement (rely on Condor)

19. Conductor Deal in clumps of instances (deployable)

20. Conductor Image placement (rely on Condor)

21. Composer Image description ( templates) base OS add'l packages Cloud independent images store templates generate cloud images manage uploading them

22. Composer Oz OS independent installer Image Factory target EC2, vSphere, RHEV-M Image Warehouse blob storage + metadata

23. Orchestrator http://fortuneandglory.deviantart.com/

24. Orchestrator Who shaves the barber ? Central RESTful server Tooling in each image Bootstrap mgmt infrastructure

25. Orchestrator Tightly integrated with Conductor conductor sends config in conductor launches instance instance pulls config Use OTP to protect conversation

26. Aeolus' little helpers Apache Deltacloud cross-cloud abstraction RESTful API adapter or native implementation Matahari AMQP agent framework Run inside instances

27. Apache Deltacloud Goals avoid lock-in/increase portability open source IaaS API standard Incubating at the Apache Foundation

28. Basic Architecture Client Cloud Driver Deltacloud Core Rest via HTTP

29. API Coverage Instances Images Hardware Profiles Realms Instance States Volumes Buckets/blobs Load Balancers Keys
