CYCLONE Unified Deployment and Management of Federated, Multi-Cloud Applications
Various Cloud layers have to work in concert in order to manage and deploy
complex multi-cloud applications, executing sophisticated workflows for Cloud
resource deployment, activation, adjustment, interaction, and monitoring. While
there are ample solutions for managing individual Cloud aspects (e.g. network
controllers, deployment tools, and application security software), there are no
well-integrated suites for managing an entire multi cloud environment with
multiple providers and deployment models. This paper presents the CYCLONE
architecture that integrates a number of existing solutions to create an open,
unified, holistic Cloud management platform for multi-cloud applications,
tailored to the needs of research organizations and SMEs. It discusses major
challenges in providing a network and security infrastructure for the
Intercloud and concludes with the demonstration how the architecture is
implemented in a real life bioinformatics use case
The concept of a mobility data cloud: Design, implementation and trials
The mobility data cloud is an Internet based platform for the integration of mobility related data from different data providers. It offers a framework for the acquisition, aggregation, provisioning, and analysis of mobility relevant data originating from various sources, e.g. Charging stations, gas stations, position of vehicles, battery charge condition of electric vehicles, utilization of vehicles, and data regarding public transport. These various types of data should facilitate the collaborative shared utilization of mobility resources such as electric vehicles, charging stations, etc. This paper presents the design and implementation of such an Internet based mobility data cloud. In addition, the presented prototype is evaluated based on trials in a European city
