OPENSTACK – COMMUNICATION FLOW


OPENSTACK – A PREFERRED PLATFORM FOR PRIVATE CLOUD

Flexible and Modular:

Open and Affordable:

“OpenStack is an open source cloud platform that has become a compatibility standard for the private cloud market.”

- Forrester, 2015 Global Community:

•  Choice of deployment location •  Use for single-tenant, multi-tenant or hybrid environments •  Independent services and a large number of configuration

options enable you to implement your cloud based on your needs

•  Avoid vendor lock-in, automate and use standard APIs to manage multiple clouds

•  Complete transparency into the code base and roadmap •  Lower costs by using commodity gear and avoiding expensive

software licensing fees

•  Over 29,000 members, 531 supporting companies, 172 countries and 1,792 active contributors


LEVERAGING OPENSTACK – UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

“With OpenStack today, when someone walks into our office and says ‘I have this idea and here are the needs’, we can –on this cloud platform– within hours or minutes, have that system up and running so they can do that science.” --- Paul Brenner, Associate Director University of Notre Dame Center for Research Computing!

CHALLENGES

Heterogeneous Compute

Environment

Need Global Collaboration

Persistent Utilization

Deploying and Supporting at Scale

The Center for Research Computing at University of

Notre Dame is an innovative and multidisciplinary research environment that supports collaboration to facilitate discoveries in science and engineering, the

arts, humanities and social sciences, through advanced computation, data analysis and other

digital research tools.


LEVERAGING OPENSTACK – UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

“With OpenStack today, when someone walks into our office and says ‘I have this idea and here are the needs’, we can –on this cloud platform– within hours or minutes, have that system up and running so they can do that science.” --- Paul Brenner, Associate Director University of Notre Dame Center for Research Computing!

“For scientists to collaborate at Notre Dame and at universities around the world, we have open languages we all speak. Sharing that common

language in a computing sense means having a common API like what OpenStack provides.”

Paul R. Brenner, Associate Director, Center for Research Computing at the University of Notre Dame

SOLUTION

OpenStack Private Cloud !

Fixed Cost, Flexible Options!

Ability to add commodity nodes to scale with minimal

disruptions!


LEVERAGING OPENSTACK - CERN

CHALLENGES

Need for a Common

Platform !

Massive amounts of data!

Scaling for Future Needs!

Limited Head Count!

Federated Identity!

Particle accelerators and other infrastructure for high energy physics (HEP) research. Home of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)

Worldwide community ‒  21 member states (+ 2 incoming members) ‒  Observers: Turkey, Russia, Japan, USA, India ‒  About 2300 staff ‒  >10’000 users (about 5’000 on-site) ‒  Budget (2014) ~1000 MCHF

CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear

Research

Birthplace of the World Wide Web



TIER-1: permanent storage,

re-processing, "analysis"

TIER-0 (CERN): data recording,

reconstruction and distribution"

TIER-2: Simulation,"

end-user analysis"

> 2 million jobs/day"

~350’000 cores"

500 PB of storage"

nearly 170 sites, 40 countries"

10-100 Gb links"



“With our OpenStack cloud, we’ve been able to offer physicists the resources they need to analyze and model data from the LHC [Large

Hadron Collider].”

TIM BELL, MANAGER, INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES, CERN

SOLUTION

OpenStack Private Cloud(s)!

Federated Identity!

Operational Ubiquity!

OpenStack Community !

4 OpenStack clouds at CERN •  Largest is ~120,000 cores in

~5,000 servers •  3 other instances with 45,000

cores total •  1,100 active users

Running OpenStack Juno •  3PB Ceph block storage for

attached volumes


OPENSTACK – HYBRID AND FEDERATION

!

!

CHALLENGES

Central Identity Source!

Capacity Demand Management!

Resource Sharing “Elasticity”!

Balancing Cost vs Need!

!

“Mission-critical applications are more likely to be deployed on a hosted private cloud than on a

multitenant IaaS platform…as mainstream buyers prioritize security, customization, and performance

over low cost.” !

-- 451 Research Vendor Window, April 2015!!


Public and Private Clouds

Central Identity Source (ie, In-Common)!

Capacity Demand Management!

Resource Sharing!

Cost vs Need!

SOLUTION

On-Prem OpenStack

Private Cloud(s)

Public Cloud Connection

Intelligent Workload Scheduling
