MonkeyMan – a Perl5 framework for Apache CloudStack automation
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes926 views
The document discusses various features of Apache CloudStack, highlighting its manageability, support for multiple hypervisors and storage types, as well as its security features. It also introduces Monkeyman, an automation framework built in Perl5 that allows for flexible API interactions with CloudStack. Key functionalities include rapid deployment, flexible access policies, and capabilities for logging and debugging within the platform.

MonkeyMan – a Perl5 framework for Apache CloudStack automation
- 2. What do we like in Apache CloudStack? Manageability • unified management portal; • browser-compatible VNC-interface; • powerful API. Omnivorousness • hypervisors: KVM, LXC, XEN, VMWare, Hyper-V; • storages: any filesystems, including clustered filesystems that could be accessed by a shared- mountpoint GlusterFS, Ceph, NFS, SMB, GFS2, OCFS2. Security • encrypted networking (IPSec, HTTPS); • firewalls and load-balancers (internal VR, NetScaler, F5, FortiGate, pfSense and other beasts); • open source ideology. https://cloudstack.apache.org/
- 3. What else do we like in Apache CloudStack? Reliablity • clusterisation, live migration; • high-availability, affinity groups; • volume and VM snapshots. Rapid deployment • ISO-images and templates; • OS preferences for the host; • host and storage tags, which can be used in the service and storage offerings. Flexible access policies • domains, accounts, users; • resouce limits; • LDAP support. https://cloudstack.apache.org/
- 4. MonkeyMan: the cloud manager MonkeyMan - the automation framework Implemented in Perl5 with Moose All ACS objects are Perl objects Flexible API vocabularies XML and XPath Pluggable and replaceable modules http://monkeyman.tucha.ua/
- 5. MonkeyMan: Perl5 & Moose # Use Moose and be happy :) use Moose::Role; has 'monkeyman' => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'MonkeyMan', reader => 'get_monkeyman', writer => '_set_monkeyman', predicate => '_has_monkeyman', required => 1 ); Why use Moose? Attributes Accessors Validation Roles Subclasses Syntax extentions Art by www.animalcrewshop.com http://monkeyman.tucha.ua/
