A web portal for management of aneka-based MultiCloud environments
Mohammed Alrokayan, Rajkumar Buyya · 2013
Many Cloud providers offer services with different sets of configurations and settings. This makes it difficult for their clients to seamlessly integrate various services from different Cloud providers. To simplify, we developed an extendible Cloud Web Portal (CWP), a comprehensive open source Cloud management portal that aims to deliver a foundation for researchers and developers to prove a research concept, test a code or deliver a product in a fast and easy to use graphical user interface. Also, it aims to seamlessly integrate different Cloud services by providing a flexible architecture and design system. CWP is based on Aneka, which allows developers to use a set of.Net-based APIs for monitoring, billing/accounting, scheduling, and provisioning. Aneka provision services from private, public or hybrid Clouds. Our evaluation results show that Aneka scheduling algorithm performs efficiently for executing tasks in distributed machines.
