Borche Paspalovski (2013) Cloud service orchestration using VMware vCenter Orchestrator. EngD thesis.
Abstract
Cloud computing is a computing style, which actuality has increased lately. One of the downsides of cloud computing platforms is the insufficient level of cloud automation. Cloud orchestration is the way of defining tasks, which can automate processes inside the cloud. The main goal of the thesis is the creation of orchestration workflows, used for the deployment of platform services in the cloud with the use of VMware vCenter Orchestrator component. In the introduction we described the motivation of using orchestration in the cloud. This is followed by the description of cloud computing service models and deployment models. The next chapter presents the basic concepts of automation and orchestration in the cloud. Within this chapter we also made an overview of the existing technologies for automation and orchestration, we described their key functionalities and we showed orchestration technologies comparison. Next we gave a detailed overview on the VMware vCenter Orchestrator component. In the following chapter we focused on the process of orchestrating services in the private cloud. In the final chapter we extended the current workflows of orchestration component for the purpose of deploying services into the hybrid cloud. Additionally, we implemented and exposed the basic functionalities for the purpose of hybrid cloud orchestration.
