Ευχαριστούμε πολύ. Κοινοποιώ την πρόταση σας και στην Επιστημονική Επιτροπή. 2010/4/13 Nicholas Ampazis <n [ dot ] ampazis [ at ] gmail [ dot ] com>: > Αγαπητοί κύριοι, > > Παρακαλώ βρείτε παρακάτω την πρόταση μας για την διοργάνωση > παρουσίασης (ή workshop ανάλογα με τη διαθεσιμότητά σας) στα πλαίσια > του Συνεδρίου ΕΛ/ΛΑΚ 2010. > > Σημειώνεται ότι η πρόταση μας εμπίπτει στα ενδιαφέροντα της θεματικής > Ενότητας 3 (Πλατφόρμες Cloud Computing) την Παρασκευή 14 Μαΐου (14.30 > - 16.00) στην Αθήνα (ΕΜΠ). > > > Ακολουθεί η περιγραφή της παρουσίασης/workshop: > > > Abstract > > ####################################################################### > > Deploying an Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (Live Demonstration) > > ####################################################################### > > In this presentation/workshop, using the (free) Ubuntu Server CD and > two laptops we will demonstrate the ease of deploying an Ubuntu > Enterprise Cloud (UEC) in less than 20 minutes! > > With Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud organizations can experience the benefits > of cloud computing within their own servers running virtual machines: > to deploy workloads and have them running immediately; to grow or > shrink computing capacity to meet the needs of a demanding > application, etc. UEC offers the same APIs as the dominant public > cloud offering, Amazon EC2, and so applications can be built to run on > either platform, therefore offering a (theoretically) infinite > expansion potential.

In particular we will > demonstrate our deployment of StarCluster (a utility originally > created in MIT for managing general purpose computing clusters hosted > on Amazon's EC2) in order to make it compatible with UEC. StarCluster > minimizes the administrative overhead associated with obtaining, > configuring, and managing a traditional computing cluster used in > research labs or for general distributed computing applications. Our > modification of StarCluster completely automates the process of > creating a high performance computing cluster on UEC. This involves > requesting virtual machines from the UEC server, configuring the > cluster with Sun Grid Engine, OpenMPI, passwordless SSH, NFS shared > /opt directories, EBS /home volumes, and ~60GB of /scratch space. > > > Με τιμή, > > Ν.
