19. Service:
Simplicity
and
Scalability
! Cloudstack
based
– Great
extensibility,
easy

– Less

than

! Basic

! Local

! KVM

– Best

22. Therefore
we
need
“good
ciEzens”
!
A
machine
should:
AutomaEcally
deploy
itself
(Almost)
Find
its
idenEty
setngs
(name,
networks,...)
Install
the
necessary
packages
for
which
it
was
intended
Register
itself
to
all
tools
Live
along
its
peers
and
respect
regulaEons
Report
to
city
hall
if
anything
goes
wrong
23. Visibility
vs
monitoring
!
Monitoring
is
part
of
visibility
– TradiEonally:
service
up,
CPU,
RAM,
network
&
disk
I/O
!
Are
we
generaEng
business
value
?
– Need
more
insight
into
applicaEon
behavior
(who
using
what,
...)
24. Trends
!
If
it
moves,
graph
it
!
If
it
doesn't
move,
graph
it
in
case
it
starts
moving
!
If
it
breaks
once,
monitor
it
!
QuesEon,
adapt
and
modify
thresholds
conEnuously
25. What
is
different
in
the
cloud
?
!
Distributed
systems
!
Lots
of
moving
parts
!
Scale
!
Easy
tools
to
quickly
assess

28. Looking back
28
! Cloudstack
is
a
solid
foundaEon
for
a
IAAS
plahorm
– Beware
of
complex
features
– The
virtual
router
is
not
opEmum
– Concurrency
issues
can
arise
at
scale
! There's
a
bit
more
to
it
than
just
installing
cloudstack
– Customer
management
– Real-‐Eme
metering
and
billing
– Integrated
console
– A
few
other
things
...
! Building
a
sustainable
and
scalable
plahorm
on
top
of
cloudstack
is
possible
