Openstack Designate
OpenStack Designate Stephan Lagerholm Graham Hayes What is OpenStack? OpenStack is a free open standard cloud computing platform, mostly deployed as infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) in both public and private clouds where virtual servers and other resources are made available to users. The software platform consists of interrelated components that control diverse, multi-vendor hardware pools of processing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center. Users either manage it through a web-based dashboard, through command-line tools, or through RESTful web services. OpenStack began in 2010 as a joint project of Rackspace Hosting and NASA. As of 2012, it was managed by the OpenStack Foundation (Source: Wikipedia) 2 Designate • Designate started as a project to maintain DNS infrastructure for OpenStack Users. It was an ecosystem project that was in production at both HP’s and Rackspace’s clouds. During 2015, Designate was moved into OpenStack Foundation and in 2017 it became a registered trademark. • Designate is providing API, CLI and a Graphical User interface so that OpenStack Users can setup and make changes to DNS data. The zones are thereafter exposed to secondary DNS servers via Zone Transfers. • Officially Bind 9.X and PowerDNS 4.X is supported although other DNS servers are known to work too. Most resource Record Types such as A, AAAA, PTR, CNAME, NS, MX, etc are supported 3 Producer Producer Backend Producer Producer Producer Worker Customer Facing API Central DNS Servers Standard XFR Secured by TSIG Nova / DB Mini -

Fog Computing: a Platform for Internet of Things and Analytics
Fog Computing: A Platform for Internet of Things and Analytics Flavio Bonomi, Rodolfo Milito, Preethi Natarajan and Jiang Zhu Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) brings more than an explosive proliferation of endpoints. It is disruptive in several ways. In this chapter we examine those disrup- tions, and propose a hierarchical distributed architecture that extends from the edge of the network to the core nicknamed Fog Computing. In particular, we pay attention to a new dimension that IoT adds to Big Data and Analytics: a massively distributed number of sources at the edge. 1 Introduction The “pay-as-you-go” Cloud Computing model is an efficient alternative to owning and managing private data centers (DCs) for customers facing Web applications and batch processing. Several factors contribute to the economy of scale of mega DCs: higher predictability of massive aggregation, which allows higher utilization with- out degrading performance; convenient location that takes advantage of inexpensive power; and lower OPEX achieved through the deployment of homogeneous compute, storage, and networking components. Cloud computing frees the enterprise and the end user from the specification of many details. This bliss becomes a problem for latency-sensitive applications, which require nodes in the vicinity to meet their delay requirements. An emerging wave of Internet deployments, most notably the Internet of Things (IoTs), requires mobility support and geo-distribution in addition to location awareness and low latency. We argue that a new platform is needed to meet these requirements; a platform we call Fog Computing [1]. We also claim that rather than cannibalizing Cloud Computing, F. Bonomi R. -

Cloud Computing and Internet of Things: Issues and Developments
Proceedings of the World Congress on Engineering 2018 Vol I WCE 2018, July 4-6, 2018, London, U.K. Cloud Computing and Internet of Things: Issues and Developments Isaac Odun-Ayo, Member, IAENG, Chinonso Okereke, and Hope Orovwode Abstract—Cloud computing is a pervasive paradigm that is allows access to recent technologies and it enables growing by the day. Various service types are gaining increased enterprises to focus on core activities, instead programming importance. Internet of things is a technology that is and infrastructure. The services provided include Software- developing. It allows connectivity of both smart and dumb as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as–a–Service (PaaS) and systems over the internet. Cloud computing will continue to be Infrastructure–as–a–Services (IaaS). SaaS provides software relevant to IoT because of scalable services available on the cloud. Cloud computing is the need for users to procure servers, applications over the Internet and it is also known as web storage, and applications. These services can be paid for and service [2]. utilized using the various cloud service providers. Clearly, IoT Cloud users can access such applications anytime, which is expected to connect everything to everyone, requires anywhere either on their personal computers or on mobile not only connectivity but large storage that can be made systems. In PaaS, the cloud service provider makes it available either through on-premise or off-premise cloud possible for users to deploy applications using application facility. On the other hand, events in the cloud and IoT are programming interfaces (APIs), web portals or gateways dynamic. -
Based Services Using XRI-Based Apis for Enabling New E-Business
International Journal of E-Business Development May. 2013, Vol. 3 Iss. 2, PP. 64-74 An Approach for the Composition of Generic Cloud- Based Services Using XRI-Based APIs for Enabling New E-Business Antonio Celesti1, Francesco Tusa2, Massimo Villari3, Antonio Puliafito4 DICIEAMA, Università degli Studi di Messina Contrada Di Dio, S. Agata 98166, Messina, Italia [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract-Nowadays, cloud computing offers more and more business opportunities, and thanks to the concept of virtualization, different types of cost-effective Cloud-based services have been rising. Virtualization of computing, storage, and networking resources, and their interconnection is at the heart of cloud computing, hence enabling new E-Business scenarios. In such a context, APIs for enabling Cloud-based services are strongly required, nevertheless, methods, mechanisms and tools for exploiting virtualized resources and their utilization for developing anything as a service (*aaS) are still ad-hoc and/or proprietary in nature. In this paper, we discuss how to use an adaptive standard protocol, i.e., XRI, for enabling cloud service providers to arrange their own Cloud- based services, building them on top of the IaaS provided by other service providers. Keywords- Cloud Computing; Cloud Management; Federation; Service Composition; E-Business I. INTRODUCTION Today, cloud computing represents a tempting business opportunity for ICT operators of increasing their revenues [1,2]. The cloud ecosystem begins to be clearer and the role played by cloud service providers appears more defined than the past. Moreover, the number of new public, private, and hybrid clouds rising all over the world is continually growing [3]. -

For example, E-learning, cloud computing, social networking, virtual laboratories, virtual realities, virtual worlds, massive open online courses (MOOCs), and bring your own device (BYOD) are all new concepts of immersive and global education that have emerged in educational literature. One of the greatest challenges presented to e-learning solutions is the reproduction of the benefits of an educational institution’s physical laboratory. For a university without a computing lab, to obtain hands-on IT training with software, operating systems, networks, servers, storage, and cloud computing similar to that which could be received on a university campus computing lab, it is necessary to use a combination of technological tools. Such teaching tools must promote the transmission of knowledge, encourage interaction and collaboration, and ensure students obtain valuable hands-on experience. -
