G-Eclipse-Amazon-Integration

Revision as of 05:21, 4 April 2008 by Mknauer.innoopract.com (Talk | contribs) (Important Interfaces)

Ideas

  • We create another AMI that contains
    • Java and e.g. a tomcat
  • It should allow us to deploy OSGi bundles
  • Information Service (fetchService) should provide all the necessary and available info from AWS

Open Issues

  • Is there something like a group in S3/EC2? This could be used like a VO to browse the resources of a user/member.
  • Deployment: Launch configuration or is there a concept like deployment e.g. in Webtools?
  • Currently S3 Authentication != x.509
  • Is it possible (how?) to get the information about other S3 buckets that belong to a certain group?

Dictionary

  • S3/EC2 UIDs == (in a first approach) VO (Virtual Organization)
  • S3 Storage == SE (Storage Element)
  • AMI (Amazon Machine Image) == CE (Compute Element)
  • Installing, starting bundles in a running AMI == Application Deployment

Important Interfaces

  • IGridElement
  • IGridElementCreator
  • IVirtualOrganization (AbstractVirtualOrganization)
  • IGridInfoService
  • IAuthenticationTokenDescription, IAuthenticationToken (e.g. the Globus (x.509) implementation)
