Private Cloud Stack Deep Dive

Enterprise Cloud Summit

Service library

• What cloud services does the stack offer?

• (i.e. virtual machines, code execution, large-object storage, message queueing.)

OS, language, and API support

• What operating systems, languages, or APIs can the user employ?

• (i.e. Python, any OS, etc.)

On what stack is it based?

• (VMWare, Xen, KVM, etc.)

Requirements & limitations

• What are the underlying hardware requirements or constraints?

• (i.e. pairs of machines; Intel quad-core processors; sub-10-ms latency between nodes)

Portability

• Is the stack portable to other stacks, or to public cloud provider environments?

• (i.e. can you move an AMI to Amazon?_

What standards or de-facto standards does it support?

How is it priced?

• (i.e. by core, by user, open source with a support contract, etc.)

Included tools

• What management tools do you offer?

• (a screenshot or two is fine here)

Capacity, performance, availability

• What are the capacity, performance, and availability constraints?

• (i.e. scales to a maximum of 20 nodes)

Global distribution

• Can it work in a distributed, multi-city mode with additional redundancy?
