Using OpenStack for an Open Cloud eXchange(OCX): Using Open Stack for an Open Cloud Exchange(OCX)
نویسندگان
چکیده
We are developing a new public cloud, the Massachusetts Open Cloud (MOC) based on the model of an Open Cloud eXchange (OCX). We discuss in this paper the vision of an OCX and how we intend to realize it using the OpenStack open-source cloud platform in the MOC. A limited form of an OCX can be achieved today by layering new services on top of OpenStack. We have performed an analysis of OpenStack to determine the changes needed in order to fully realize the OCX model. We describe these proposed changes, which although significant and requiring broad community involvement will provide functionality of value to both existing single-provider clouds as well as future multi-provider ones.

Enabling User-Centric Data-Intensive Application Deployment in Clouds Using the Open Cloud Exchange
The Open Cloud eXchange (OCX) concept has been defined as a place for inter-connection and peering between cloud providers and customers. The concepts surrounding OCX focus mainly the network aspects and are currently being implemented within GÉANT (gOCX). The current goal of the OCX is to seamlessly provide layer 0-2 connectivity between cloud sites and cloud users. In this work we investigate...

متن کاملDissecting Open Source Cloud Evolution: An OpenStack Case Study
Open source cloud platforms are playing an increasingly significant role in cloud computing. These systems have been undergoing rapid development cycles. As an example, OpenStack has grown approximately 10 times in code size since its inception two and a half years ago. Confronting such fast-pace changes, cloud providers are challenged to understand OpenStack’s up-to-date behaviors and adapt an...
