Description

The STFC Scientific computing department has been developing an OpenNebula based cloud underpinned by Ceph block storage. I will describe some of our use cases, our set up,and give a demonstration of our development VM on demand service. I will go on to explore some of the problems we have overcome to reach this point. Finally, I will present the work we are doing to use spare capacity on this cloud to run virtual worker nodes
