OCCI Monitoring extension
by Jrad, Foued 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Hi, I am a PHD student at the Karlsruhe institute of technology in Karlsruhe (Germany) . The focus of my research is service brokering in inter-cloud infrastructures. One of the requirements for the broker functionality is the use of a standard interface (pub/sub model) to consume monitoring data provided by different infrastructure providers. I plan to use OCCI for this purpose. When it is approximately expected to integrate monitoring extensions to the OCCI specifications? I heard that SLA@SOI is already working on a such extension! How can I contribute ?

SNIA Cloud Plugfest

Hi, I just saw that the next Cloud Plugfest has been announced on the SNIA webpage to take place July 12-14, 2011: http://www.snia.org/cloud/cloudplugfest/ I will have the chance to attend in person and two of my colleagues will probably attend remotely. Does anyone else plan to attend? From my past experience I can say that (at least) attending remotely is working well and very helpful for getting feedback. Cheers, Florian

Hi @all, Every reply I got implied that we should move to Thursday - same time. I'll try to get the conference bridge to be configured that way. We'll stay on the bi weekly confcall schedule. I'll send out an invitation for the next call - as soon as the conference bridge is setup correctly. Cheers, -Thijs

Looking for a new time for our bi-weekly confcalls...
by Thijs Metsch 01 Jun '11

01 Jun '11

Hi @all, We're currently looking for a new timeslot to organize our bi-weekly confcalls. The current timeslot conflicts with the meeting time of DMTF's CMWG - in which some of us want to participate. Also some other meetings take place the same day. Please send your personal favorite timeslot (Day and time) directly (Not reply-all) to me. @Mark: When does CDMI meet? - we don't want to conflict with that timeslot either :-) Many thanks, -Thijs
