Elevating Cloud Infrastructure with Object Storage, DRS, VM Scheduling, and DRaaS – Jithin Raju & Vishesh Jindal, ShapeBlue
0 likes76 views
The document discusses advancements in Apache CloudStack including the use of disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS), object storage management, and virtual machine (VM) scheduling. Key features highlighted are snapshot copy across zones, VM migration capabilities, and scheduling operations to enhance cloud infrastructure efficiency. The presenters have extensive experience in cloud technologies, showcasing live demonstrations and comparing features to VMware solutions.
Elevating Cloud Infrastructure with Object Storage, DRS, VM Scheduling, and DRaaS – Jithin Raju & Vishesh Jindal, ShapeBlue
- 1. Apache CloudStack India User Group Elevating Cloud Infrastructure with Object Storage, DRS, VM Scheduling, and DRaaS
- 2. Agenda • DRaaS using Snapshot copy and destination selection • CloudStack Object Storage Framework • CloudStack DRS • VM Scheduling • Discussion
- 3. About Me • Cloud Architect at ShapeBlue • Involved with CloudStack/ Forks since 2013. • Citrix > Accelerite > ShapeBlue Jithin Raju
- 4. DRaaS using Snapshot copy and destination selection • Most cost-effective feature. • Snapshot copy across zones. • Available in the policy-based snapshots as well. • Create snapshots in multiple zones. • Create templates from snapshots. • Create volume from snapshots. • Create instances from templates. • Previous talk by Alex at CCC 2023: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVgKUM-mWMA
- 5. DEMO
- 6. CloudStack Object Storage Framework • Object storage management lifecycle • Object storage usage • Bucket lifecycle • Object lifecycle • Multi-part upload • Metrics • Quota • Object Locking • Versioning • ACLs • Pre-signed URL
- 7. DEMO
- 8. About Me • Software Engineer at ShapeBlue • Worked as a Backend & Infrastructure engineer in the past • Experience managing and administering kubernetes, AWS, PostgreSQL in production • Passionate about cloud infrastructure, security, and AI Vishesh Jindal
- 9. CloudStack DRS • Live migrates instances across different hosts in the cluster • Hypervisor agnostic • Algorithms o Balanced – Ensures uniform workload on all hosts o Condensed – Reduces the number of hosts in use • Added in CloudStack 4.19
- 10. DEMO
- 11. Balanced • Balances the VM across hosts • Higher power consumption • In case of a host failure, minimal impact on running VMs • Ideal for production environments • Less likely to cause contention issues • Like VMWare DRS Condensed • Reduces the number of hosts in use • Lower power consumption • In case of a host failure, huge impact on running VMs • Ideal for staging/testing environments • More likely to cause contention issues • Like VMWare DPS
- 12. VM Scheduling • Schedule different lifecycle operations on an Instance • Allowed Operations o Start o Stop o Reboot o Force Stop o Force Reboot • Cron format • Added in CloudStack 4.19
- 13. DEMO
- 14. Discussion
