Dear Luis:
Thanks for your sharing the information.
We are from Research Center Karlsruhe and we are also interested in
virtualization for distributed computing, furthermore,
currently virtualization technology for Cloud computing.
We have highly interests on European Reservoir project, and please update your research progress here.
Best regards,

Subject: [gridvirt-wg] Open Nebula Virtual Infrastructure Engine
Good day,
I'm Luis Gonzalez, member of the DSA Research Group (dsa-research.org)
at Universidad Complutense in Madrid which is developing the Open Nebula
Virtual Infrastructure Engine (former Gridhypervisor). Currently we are
part of the Reservoir European project, which is related to
Virtualization and Grid, and so we have been following closely the use
case draft and proposed API published on the gridforge project of this
WG and other important standards like DMTF's proposals.
In particular, we are working on the implementation of a VM manager
(OpenNebula based) on top of a physical infrastructure (like clusters)
that will manage the full life cycle of the VM from definition to
execution and destruction, including things like scheduling of VMs
according to some rules or policies based on host statistics
(load-balancing, idle time...) and also provide capabilities like
snapshotting, migration, live migration, deployment, etc. and creation
of VM with their corresponding disk images in an image repository.
One of our goals in the context of the RESERVOIR project is to define an
open specification of an API for the management of VMs, so being the
OpeNebula API an open-source reference implementation. We are wondering
if the API proposed in the WG draft has a similar aim.
Regards,
