Much thanks goes to them and to previous sponsors! At this meetup there were 2 talks and an interactive and impromptu panel discussion […]
ElasTest KickOff Meeting
The most limiting factor in development today is software validation, which typically requires very costly and complex testing processes. It will develop a novel test orchestration theory and toolbox enabling the creation of complex test suites as the composition of simple testing units. ElasTest project wants to develop an elastic platform for testing complex distributed large software systems.
ElasTest
Summary: The most limiting factor in development today is software validation, which typically requires very costly and complex testing processes. ElasTest pretends to improve significantly the efficiency and effectiveness of the testing process. The project aims to build an elastic platform that eases the testing phase for large and distributed software systems. This is done […]
SESAME, Hurtle & NetFloc
Recently, at EUCNC’16, the ZHAW SESAME team demonstrated the work of combining SESAME concepts through the use of Hurtle, our orchestration framework, and Netfloc, our SDK for datacenter network programming. The demonstration was also a joint demonstration between SESAME and the 5GPPP COHERENT project. It was a demonstration that bridges the gap between the telco and cloud […]
ACeN Begins!
Recently the ICCLab, ZHAW acquired a KTI project, ACeN – Apache CloudStack for NFV. Cloudstack is one of the front running Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platforms for cloud environment.
MCN and ICCLab Demo at EUCNC
As part of our on-going work in MobileCloud Networking the project demonstrated at this year’s EUCNC, held in a very warm (> 35*C !!!) Paris, France. The MCN demonstration was built on top of a standard cloud infrastructure, leveraging key technologies of OpenStack and OpenShift and used (open source outputs of MCN, namely hurtle – […]
Cloud Orchestration: Hurtle Released
We are proud to announce that the ICCLab has released Hurtle! Hurtle is a result of the ICCLab’s Cloud Orchestration Initiative. What is hurtle? With Hurtle, you automate the life-cycle management of any number of service instances in the cloud, from deployment of resources all the way to configuration and runtime management (e.g., scaling) of each instance. […]
Cloud Application Management
Overview Currently today, large internet-scale services are still architected using the principles of service-orientation. The key overarching idea is that a service is not one large monolith but indeed a composite of cooperating sub-services. How these sub-services are designed and implemented are given either by the respective business function, as in the case of traditional […]
Apache CloudStack for NFV (ACeN)
Apache CloudStack for NFV (ACeN) is a project that is funded by the Commission for Technology and Innovation. The ACeN projects seeks to deliver services and prototypes based on the ETSI Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) standard and Apache CloudStack. A novel hybrid load-balancing service (HLBS) will be created and and key NFV demonstrators will be prototyped. […]
