Description

The INFN Section of Turin hosts a middle-size multi-tenant cloud infrastructure optimized for scientific computing.

A new approach exploiting the features of VMDIRAC and aiming to allow for dynamic automatic instantiation and destruction of Virtual Machines from different tenants, in order to maximize the global computing efficiency of the infrastructure, has been designed, implemented and is now being tested.

Making use of the standard EC2 API, the two OpenNebula and OpenStack platforms are addressed by this approach.
