Heat - keep the clouds up
4 likes1,131 views
Heat is a project that provides orchestration of multiple cloud applications and resources for OpenStack. It allows users to define infrastructure in templates and provision resources like instances, volumes, and security groups. Key features include integration with other OpenStack projects, compatibility with AWS CloudFormation templates and API, and advanced services like auto-scaling and high availability. The project is actively developed by an open source community with the goal of becoming part of the OpenStack core.

- 3. Overview • REST API to orchestrate multiple composite cloud applications • AWS CloudFormation implementation for OpenStack API • Orchestrates apps, called as stack, by executing a CloudFormation template • Allows creation of resource types - instances, floating IPs, volumes, security groups, users, etc. • Some advanced services - HA, auto-scaling and nested stacks • Compatible with AWS CloudFormation legacy (CLI based on boto and compatible API) • Integrates well with Puppet and Chef • OpenStack style project – Tight integration with other OpenStack projects – Python 2, matching OpenStack design principals – ASL V2 License and hosted on Github – Integrated with Stackforce (OpenStack workflow gerrit/jenkins) • Started in March, 2012 • Active community of 9 developers (All from Red Hat) @sdake 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 3

- 7. Bootstrap Methods • Golden Image – everything some scratch • CloudFormation + cloud-init as startup script • CloudFormation metadata + helper scripts • Use Chef or Puppet 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 7
- 8. Heat JEOS • Build Just Enough Operating System images • Will be setup with cloud-init and cfn-tools • Optionally, register with glance 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 8
- 9. Oz… (The wizard!) • Automated installation of guest OS • Create TDL files to feed as input into the building process SAMPLE TDL file: <template> <name>NAME</name> <os> <name>DISTRO</name> <version>VERSION</version> <arch>ARCH</arch> <install type='iso'> <iso>PATH TO ISO</iso> </install> </os> <description>DESCRIPTION</description> </template> 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 9
- 10. CloudFormation helper scripts • cfn-init - Reads instance resource, installs packages, and starts services • cfn-signal - Waits for an application to be ready before continuing with stack creation • cfn-hup - Handle updates to metadata and execute custom hooks • cfn-get-metadata - Retrieve all metadata defined for a resource or a specific key or subtree of the resource's metadata • cfn-update-stack - Updates metadata content • Stack synchronization and rollback through WaitCondition 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 10
- 11. Template Dissection • Templates - JSON files which define your stack • Stacks - Collection of resources to manage together • Parameters - Values defined in the template • Mappings - Conditional parameter values • Pseudo Parameters – Pre declared values • Resources – Features which declare a stack • Resource Properties – Values for resources • References – Any named item • Intrinsic Functions – Accomplish complex operations • Outputs – Return values back to the template user Source: AWS CloudFormation Documentation 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 11
- 12. Advanced Services • Not just a resource brokering service • Autoscaling • CloudWatch 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 12
- 13. Current Status • Integration with Common, Glance, Keystone, Swift, and Nova • Implementation of the AWS CloudFormation API • Usable implementation of AWS CloudWatch API • Complete implementation for all non-VPC related resource types in CloudFormation • Instance and application high availability • Autoscaling • Nested Stacks 13-10-2012 keeps the clouds up ;) 13
