Generic Architecture for Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Provisioning Model
report
This document provides information about the proposed architectural framework for Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provisioning model that includes the following components: the Composable Services Architecture (CSA) that intends to provide a conceptual and methodological framework for developing dynamically configurable virtualised infrastructure services; the Infrastructure Services Modeling Framework (ISMF) that provides a basis for the infrastructure resources virtualisation and management, including description, discovery, modeling, composition and monitoring; the Service Delivery Framework(SDF) that provides a basis for defining the whole composable services life cycle management and supporting infrastructure services.
The document intends to provide a starting point for further discussion and possible coordination with other project developments and standardisation activities.
This development has been facilitated by a number of the projects and activities in which the SNE Group at the University of Amsterdam takes active part, in particular projects GEYSERS, GEANT3 JRA3 Composable Services, NOVI, SURFnet e-Science, and Open Grid Forum Research Group on Infrastructure Services On-Demand provisioning (ISOD-RG).
