Tadej Razboršek (2014) OpenStack Cloud Activity Visualization. EngD thesis.
Abstract
Cloud computing is becoming ever more popular and widely used. A key component of every cloud-computing system is resource monitoring. Suppliers can charge a fair price for the use of their services and the users have better overview of the activity of their applications. In the scope of this diploma thesis, we have implemented a web application that visualizes resource usage in a cloud built using the open-source platform OpenStack. First, we define the main concepts needed to classify the application in the field of cloud computing. We then offer a summary of its functionalities and describe its implementation. The application receives its data from a software component called Ceilometer. The data is retrieved via REST API, and simultaneously filtered and visualized.
