Fogbow: a middleware for the federation of private clouds Francisco Brasileiro fubica@dsc.ufcg.edu.br Cloudscape Brazil, Rio de Janeiro
Motivation • Many scientific applications have bursty workloads • Cloudburst excess demand to public clouds is desirable to avoid over provisioned in-house infrastructures • Cloudburst to public clouds might not be effective when: • Excess demand is too high • There are privacy restrictions on the data and programs involved in the computation • Federation of private clouds can be an alternative 20/10/2014 Cloudscape Brazil, Rio de Janeiro 2
Main Challenges • How to preserve member’s autonomy and deal with: • Authentication and authorization • Cross-site requests • Remote connectivity • Interoperability 20/10/2014 Cloudscape Brazil, Rio de Janeiro 3
