| 34 | |
| 35 | The GENI facility envisages researchers constructing, deploying, and executing experiments on a variety of test infrastructures. Various large-scale tests, including wide-area storage, content distribution, and some forms of sensing with analysis, require the simultaneous use of both widely distributed sensing and actuating nodes and analysis nodes in large-scale cloud clusters. Eucalyptus is popular, open-source software for building a cloud computing infrastructure. The GENICloud project will build a GENI federation interface for compute clusters running Eucalyptus. This interface will allow Eucalyptus clusters to federate via the Slice-based Federation Architecture (SFA), and will enable experimenters to seamlessly deploy and configure slices spanning PlanetLab and multiple Eucalyptus installations. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | The project anticipates devoting approximately 32 nodes at the HP Labs OpenCirrus facility long-term to hosting a Eucalyptus cluster, and opening this to approved GENI researchers. This cluster will be tightly instrumented by HP Labs in order to gather data on cluster usage and resource usage |
