Dasein Cloud
by Thijs Metsch 23 Jun '13

23 Jun '13

Hi, Just to inform you that there is a cool project going on called Dasein-Cloud. http://dasein-cloud.sourceforge.net/ On the website it reads: Dasein Cloud is an Open Source Java API made available by enStratus Networks LLC under the terms of the Apache License 2.0. This API specifies cloud-independent interfaces for enabling an application to access resources across multiple clouds. If you are interested have a look - and it might be great to implement OCCI in their someday! Cheers, -Thijs -- Thijs Metsch Senior Software Engineer Grid and Cloud Technology Platform Computing GmbH Europaring 60 D-40878 Ratingen http://www.platform.com http://www.nohuddleoffense.de/ - http://www.twitter.com/befreax

Consider JSON Schema for OCCI
by Gary Mazz 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

Hi, Now that JSON is moving along it way, I'd like to suggest the adoption of JSON schema as a method to augment the JSON specification. The website is located http://json-schema.org/ The discussion the group on google is json-schema google group <https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21forum/json-schema> The scheme bring the JSON representation a few new capabilities including validation, and a new ability to deliver OCCI compliance profiles. There is an expired RFC for json-schema, but there is progress being made, evident on the discussion forum. If this group agrees json-schema is a worth while technology for OCCI, we can start a closer examination for applicability to OCCI. cheers, gary mazzaferro

Hi all, Max Günther, a student of me, has developed a EC2 backend for rOCCI. The result looks very promising. He made a screencast showing the current functionality: http://vimeo.com/38509679 The code is already in the repository, but will undergo some more testing until the next release: http://dev.opennebula.org/projects/ogf-occi/repository https://github.com/ffeldhaus/rOCCI (Mirror) Cheers, Florian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GWDG - Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen Am Fassberg 11, 37077 Göttingen Fon: 0551 39-20364 Fax: 0551 201-2150 E-Mail: florian.feldhaus(a)gwdg.de WWW: www.gwdg.de ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Geschäftsführer: Prof. Dr. Ramin Yahyapour Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Prof. Dr. Christian Griesinger Sitz der Gesellschaft: Göttingen Registergericht: Göttingen Handelsregister-Nr.
