Hey Cloud SIG, let's start talking about F15.
by Robyn Bergeron 05 Nov '10

05 Nov '10

We are just a few weeks away from the Fedora 14 release, and actually having a new version of Fedora on EC2. This has been *the* major goal over the past, well, 10 months since this list was created, and I'm delighted that it is finally coming together. (Thank you, Justin, for doing all of this work, and everyone else who has been working on supporting his efforts and helping out with behind-the-scenes stuff like talking to Amazon and writing documentation and asking questions!) Of course, this is Fedora, and I know a lot of us are thinking about *what we can do next*. So I'd like to have a discussion here on our friendly mailing-list about some of the things we'd like to do in F15 (and beyond!). First off: We have a lot of stuff in the pipeline that I think we could submit to the Feature List for Fedora 15. What is this "stuff," you might ask? * OpenStack - We already have the Swift portion of this in, and Nova is in the pipeline. (Thanks, silassewell.) http://www.openstack.org * Deltacloud - I'm not sure how far along this is, or if it's possible that this could be fully in for F15, or if there are clearly definable portions that could be F15 features. Anyone from Deltacloud - can you pipe in here? :) http://deltacloud.org/ * BoxGrinder - Marek Goldmann is working on packaging. http://www.jboss.org/boxgrinder * Eucalyptus - obino has been looking for some mentorship as far as packaging goes. If there are folks around to help out with this, I think it would be awesome to have as a feature. Is anyone willing to help out here? http://open.eucalyptus.com/ * Sheepdog - Steven Dake is working on this. http://www.osrg.net/sheepdog/ Additionally, we probably have further enhancements we could make on the EC2 front - namely, having really awesome documentation, which Sparks has been poking the list on since he'd love to help us out there. What other EC2-related enhancements are there for us to tackle? But what I am interested in is - what do YOU guys think about what we could, or even *should*, be doing? Are there other cloud tools, implementations, projects, etc. we should be looking at? What are they? What should Fedora's ongoing cloud-sig focus be? Yes, I know, I'm full of questions. :) Cheers, -Robyn

Fedora 14 AMIs
by Alan Gutierrez 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

Indeed, one of the great advantages of other distros is that you can fire them up on EC2 easily, as they have official AMIs. (At least the one I've been using to learn about EC2.) There are not, however, Fedora, so it is important that this situation changes. I've read through the archives and I can't find the AMI for Fedora 14 that is mentioned on the Wiki. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EC2 It would be ideal to have an official Fedora AMI, that would accept some form of boot script through the API, and then some way for a person to host RPMs. -- Alan Gutierrez - alan(a)prettyrobots.com - http://twitter.com/bigeasy

Cloud Documentation
by Eric Christensen 22 Oct '10

22 Oct '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've started a Cloud Guide for Fedora where documentation can be formalized and made public. Currently I'm considering the following chapters: 1) Introduction - What is cloud computing and how can people use Fedora in the cloud. 2) Image - How to make a Fedora image for cloud computing. 3) Amazon EC2 - How to utilize that image on Amazon EC2. Is there any documentation that I can utilize to start these chapters? Are there any other topics that need to be covered? - --Eric -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJMtQooAAoJEDbiLlqcYamxW58QAKrgXDxajcTx4r5Y0MbefHGC FARWRgIfbfRX69tRXf+kyB/JZs1yTxTCDazce3lPahX3jvxuolfVKaVXsWQwEcKB zH8lrHUkpQFOfsz8G4+6tKpj2E/vvU3AOZvsjUA3nWm29j6YqgH7+qqDtfdLROOI FHf7PIpucGuJUqlezUF57eJU1HTtAk8zjf/uZnTlbpLToQzRkrLwCdMOhev95Bs2 EG7b2bptNm0sSDpQt7AwVaPI0C7b8c8niPOFA7QTGhd2e6DaDKYkfOODoRG9km4+ UbOyeBC147s6sXHd0sEOUxYAHWP54QU+Tw5AmXZ7TWY2kTNfbMWplQxF20mHjbmI Xu8Y6K7nnLi6ck5yR+ocruQ5fQ86zjIr6KMumYyxH+dE0tsfjqizqv6GMlu3nc/E Opvg3Au/iamlMWQQhs9+0yZblT2syqIWitkiy83YwSO81JuoEAl8YunvBRcivBUj SaIZD8XRIjnbsoCBxFGYamrnoP5h/aO33hV5+eY1Oa9Y4qMD8aKqiVJbZwsjttyQ mXB6DmXhddMt8dMZ3oQ6jEnRlSOrK+hQG2lcw+eRrPbNorBAR4TR8a9ob+9MLJ6K DjKiEjS1RChgZA0eMfkCoxhqtupZxdV0gHdrC4fajfcmZCYh52br1ewPC8o6abBF Sdt+FF19vY7wPKbV216J =TiLq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

OpenStack Nova - Package Requirements Needing Reviewer
by Silas Sewell 21 Oct '10

21 Oct '10

I've posted the package requirements needing a reviewer to the OpenStack wiki page. I submitted python-gflags, python-mox and python-redis so I ensure those are fixed/submitted quickly. Both python-amqplib and python-carrot were submitted by someone else and as such may or may not take longer. I'll ping this list again once I have a openstack-nova review up.

Thanks to everyone for coming! EC2 is coming right along. We've also got folks (thanks, silassewell!) working on packaging the OpenStack nova package, and combined with the already packaged swift portion - this should make a great feature in F15. Speaking of F15: I know that F14 is right around the corner - but if you have any ideas *now* about things that you'd like to do in the Cloud SIG for F15, drop a line to the mailing list, or come to the next meeting! Minutes and links to the log follow below. See you next week!
