Getting Stackato In house: Download a VM ●using just a hypervisor (KVM, VirtualBox, Xen)●with cloud orchestration software (e.g. vSphere, Open Stack, Eucalyptus)

Hosted: Start a Stackato instance●AWS

●HP Cloud ← We'll use this today!


Inside Stackat

o


We'll use HP Cloud / OpenStack

because…● Stackato VM is publicly available there● setup experience will be similar on any OpenStack

● we can show a scriptable CLI interface (Nova)


Creating a Stackato ClusterThe "stem cell" philosophy of the Stackato VM

● boots as a fully functional micro cloud●connects to a Primary node (MBUS IP)●can take on one or more roles

'kato' command automates most of the configuration

● common configuration and maintenance tasks are automated● more fine-grained control than the web console

No BOSH required, much shorter learning curve


StackatoArchitecture


Five Node Mini Cluster

● 1 Core node consisting of controller, router, and supporting processes

● 1 data-services node running the database, messaging and filesystem services

o large VM (e.g. 8GB RAM)o backed by block storage

● 3 DEA (Droplet Execution Agent) nodes
