OpenNebulaConf2016

We’re moving into a world of open cloud — where each organization can find the right cloud for its unique needs. A single cloud management platform can not be all things to all people, there will be a cloud space with several offerings focused on different environments and/or industries. The OpenNebula commitment to the open cloud flows directly out of its mission — to become the simplest cloud enabling platform — and its purpose — to bring simplicity to the private and hybrid enterprise cloud. OpenNebula exists to help companies build simple, cost-effective, reliable, open enterprise clouds on existing IT infrastructure. The OpenNebula Conference will be a great opportunity to remind our vision, vision and commitment, to look back at how the project has grown in the last 8 years, and to give a peek at what to expect from the project in the near future.

Akamai Technologies’ CDN platform is a complex, highly-integrated distributed system consisting of over 200,000 servers in over 120 countries..  Processing over 3 Trillion web requests per day, the Akamai platform regularly serves over 30Tbps of traffic to end users around the world.  Setup and maintenance of Akamai integration test environments involves a significant investment of hardware, time and subject matter expertise.  As a result, these environments are a scarce resource.  Using Opennebula, Akamai has developed a system for saving and cloning multi-node integration test environments on-demand.  The system is succeeding and has the potential to revolutionize Akamai’s approach to software development and testing.   After exploring Akamai’s platform architecture and testing challenges, we will describe the key innovations that enabled the Vtastic solution, challenges we faced in implementing a reliable system, and future capabilities the system can offer.

​After more than one year since the start of the operational phase, it is time for the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre to reconsider the usage model of its cloud infrastructure based on OpenNebula. Budgeting is the tool of choice to regulate the access to the resources and to translate the diverse access priorities into allocation policies. This talk will focus on the use case of a resource provider for research and education, giving an overview of the current needs together with a proposed solution.

Reducing services latency is pushing centralized computing power back to the edge of the network, and in this paradigm telecommunication companies are well position to fill the gap. Telefónica is utilizing open-source OpenNebula and ON.Lab's ONOS to prototype a new generation of Central Offices that are fully IPv6 compliant and allows for the deployment of programmable services rather than the traditional black box solutions provided by proprietary solutions.Fast prototyping of a C.O. into a microdatacenter for edge computing

How OpenNebula ease the development and testing of our GNU/Linux distribution?

We are building a turn key GNU/Linux distribution for the Ministère de l’Éducation nationale (France) since 2001 and we start using OpenNebula 3 years ago to smooth the development and test of our solutions. We will follow how our agile team in their day to day use of OpenNebula.
