Angus and I announced a project to apply high availability best known practice to the field of cloud computing in late March 2011. We reuse the policy engine of Pacemaker. Our first tarball is available today containing a functional prototype demonstrating these best known practices. Today the software supports a deployable/assembly model. Assemblies represent a virtual machine and deployables represent a collection of virtual machines. Resources within a virtual machine can be monitored for failure and recovered. Assemblies and deployables are also monitored for failure and recovered. Currently the significant limitation with the software is that it operates single node. As a result it is not suitable for deployment today. We plan to address this in the future by integrating with other cloud infrastructure systems such as Aeolus (developer ml on CC list). The software will be available in Fedora 16 for all to evaluate that run Fedora. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. To provide feedback, join the mailing list: http://oss.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/pcmk-cloud/ If you have interest in developing for cloud environments around the topic of high availability, please feel free to download our git repo and submit patches. We also are interested in user feedback!
