Orchestration with Heat (1/2)

“... a human- and machine-accessible service for managing the entire lifecycle of infrastructure and applications within OpenStack clouds.”

• Orchestration engine to launch composite cloud applications based a textual description

• Resources that can be described include: servers, floating IPs, volumes, security groups, etc.

• Relationships between the different resources can be defined

35

Orchestration with Heat (2/2)

• Full lifecycle of the applicaton can be managed, including updates and deleting

• Integration with existing configuration management tools like chef and puppet is possible

• Together with Ceilometer allows to implement autoscaling (e.g. launch more instances in case of increased load)

Summary

SAVINGS: Total cost of ownership

• SUSE OpenStack Cloud is an affordable alternative for off-loading non-production workloads from more expensive virtualization infrastructure.

FLEXIBILITY:

• Support of multiple virtualization technologies: KVM, Xen, Hyper-V and VMware

• High degree of automation, even for complete application stacks

CONFIDENCE: Based on the de-facto standard cloud technology
