Dear all,
herewith we proudly announce the first public release of Snooze.
Snooze is an open-source scalable, autonomic, and energy-efficient
virtual machine (VM) management framework for private clouds based on
libvirt. Similarly to other VM management frameworks such as Nimbus,
OpenNebula, Eucalyptus, and OpenStack it allows to build compute
infrastructures from virtualized resources. Particularly, once installed
and configured users can submit and control the life-cycle of a large
number of VMs. However, contrary to existing frameworks for scalability
and fault tolerance, Snooze employs a self-organizing and healing
hierarchical architecture. Moreover, it performs distributed VM
management and is designed to be energy efficient. Therefore, it
implements features to monitor and estimate VM resource (CPU, memory,
network Rx, network Tx) demands, detect and resolve overload/underload
situations, perform dynamic VM consolidation through live migration, and
finally power management to save energy. Last but not least, it
integrates a generic scheduler which allows to implement any VM
placement algorithms. The system can be either used to manage production
data centers or as an experimental testbed for advanced (i.e. requiring
live migration support) VM placement algorithms.
Please see our website "http://snooze.inria.fr"; for more information.
We are looking forward for your feedback and contributions!
Best regards,
Eugen
