Rationale

We are working on building Hybrid Cloud for research and development purpose. Our project goal is to realize managing not only Public Cloud but also Private Cloud by making operations even easier. We are managing Amazon EC2, and our Private Cloud by making our own Cloud management tool by Drupal, which we call 'Clanavi' beyond Drupal as a Content Management System. --- Drupal as a fundamental of PaaS (Platform as a Service).

User stories

From User's Perspective, UX Includes:

  • Access to Multiple Clouds like Amazon EC2, OpenStack and XCP
  • Access to Windows VM via RDC
  • Launch and Terminate Instances
  • Manage Server Templates
  • Manage Clusters
  • Failover Service

From IT Administrator's Perspective (In Addition to the User's Perspective Above), UX Includes:

  • Provides AuthN: Work with Active Directory (LDAP Server)
  • Make AuthZ: Access Permission for Each Functionality
  • Set up Automatic Backups (and Restore)
  • Check Billing Status (TBD: Each User Metering and Limitation to Budget)
  • Browse User Activity Logs
  • Manage VM Images
  • Auto-scaling (We provide an auto-scaling framework; any auto-scaling algorithm contribution is appreciated)
