Memoria-2017-2018-Final-Br.Pdf MEMÒRIA FACULTAT D’INFORMÀTICA DE BARCELONA Curs 2017-2018 Presentació Em plau presentar-vos la memòria acadèmica de la Facultat d’Informàtica de Barcelona, un document que resumeix les activitats, projectes i resultats més significatius que hem realitzat al llarg del curs 2017-2018. Com podeu apreciar, aquesta memòria canvia significativament el seu format i aspecte, fent que la seva consulta i lectura sigui més àgil i amena. Per a assolir aquest resultat han estat necessàries moltes hores de dedicació que han calgut compaginar amb la feina del dia a dia. El meu agraïment a totes les persones que han treballat en l’elaboració d’aquest document. El nou format de la memòria ha coincidit amb un canvi en la direcció de la Facultat. El primer any com a degà de la FIB ha estat intens, i malgrat l’exigència l’any ha estat molt enriquidor a nivell personal. Estic molt agraït per la confiança que m’ha fet la comunitat, i em sento orgullós de formar part de l’equip de persones que cada dia treballa decididament per a fer créixer la nostra Facultat. El curs 2017-2018 té un caràcter rellevant, ja que coincideix amb la celebració del 40è aniversari de la FIB. Mirant enrere, no hi ha dubte del progrés de la nostra Facultat, i també ens encoratja a anar més enllà i continuar treballant per a donar resposta a les necessitats de la nostra societat. Aquesta memòria reflecteix el compromís de la nostra Facultat amb la transparència i la rendició de comptes i, d’acord amb aquest afany, en les pàgines que segueixen trobareu recollits succintament els principals resultats de l’activitat de la FIB que us convido a llegir tot seguit.

  • Hyperconverged Cloud Architecture with Opennebula and Storpool Version 3.0 – May 2020 ​ ​
    Hyperconverged Cloud Architecture with OpenNebula and StorPool Version 3.0 – May 2020 ​ ​ Abstract The Hyperconverged Cloud Architecture with OpenNebula and StorPool is a blueprint to aid IT architects, consultants, administrators and field practitioners in the design and deployment of a hyperconverged ​ cloud infrastructure. In this architecture, nodes combine computing, storage and virtual networking ​ functions to achieve better efficiency and simplified management. The Hyperconverged Cloud Architecture is a useful guide for all companies willing to launch fast, easy to use and cost-effective clouds. This document describes the architecture of a complete IT infrastructure including storage, computing, networking and cloud orchestration. There are of course other components in the open cloud ecosystem ​ that are not part of the reference architecture, but are nonetheless important to consider at the time of designing a cloud (e.g. configuration management and automation tools for managing cloud infrastructure and large numbers of devices).

  • Integrated Management of Iaas Resources
    Integrated Management of IaaS Resources Fernando Meireles1;2 and Benedita Malheiro1;2 1 School of Engineering, Polytechnic Institute of Porto, Porto, Portugal, 2 INESC TEC, Porto, Portugal {1050758,mbm}@isep.ipp.pt Abstract. This paper proposes and reports the development of an open source solution for the integrated management of Infrastructure as a Ser- vice (IaaS) cloud computing resources, through the use of a common API taxonomy, to incorporate open source and proprietary platforms. This research included two surveys on open source IaaS platforms (OpenNeb- ula, OpenStack and CloudStack) and a proprietary platform (Parallels Automation for Cloud Infrastructure - PACI) as well as on IaaS abstrac- tion solutions (jClouds, Libcloud and Deltacloud), followed by a thorough comparison to determine the best approach. The adopted implementa- tion reuses the Apache Deltacloud open source abstraction framework, which relies on the development of software driver modules to interface with different IaaS platforms, and involved the development of a new Deltacloud driver for PACI. The resulting interoperable solution success- fully incorporates OpenNebula, OpenStack (reuses pre-existing drivers) and PACI (includes the developed Deltacloud PACI driver) nodes and provides a Web dashboard and a Representational State Transfer (REST) interface library. The results of the exchanged data payload and time response tests performed are presented and discussed. The conclusions show that open source abstraction tools like Deltacloud allow the modu- lar and integrated management of IaaS platforms (open source and pro- prietary), introduce relevant time and negligible data overheads and, as a result, can be adopted by Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) cloud providers to circumvent the vendor lock-in problem whenever ser- vice response time is not critical.
