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?
