Fwd: Registrations and Rooms for the OGF44
by Sill, Alan 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Interest in holding a Cloud Plugfest in and/or centered around the attendees who will be there in person for the Lisbon EGI conference? Please respond ASAP as this will affect whether I decide to go in person myself. I encourage the OCCI group to meet in person at the co-located OGF 44 Thursday and Friday May 21-22 that week, regardless of the decision about the Cloud Plugfest. This is probably important for getting comment and visibility for the OCCI 1.2 documents as well as to take advantage of the opportunity to meet with OGF security area and network groups and with members of an important user community (EGI). Please consider this and respond with requests for meeting space ASAP.

I will poll the various area directors to see where they are in organizing meetings for groups in their respective areas. I will also see if the OCCI group will have sufficient people to pull off a Cloud Plugfest. Can you once again update us on the status of registrations?

Having empty blocks in the programme does not help to make the programme attractive, and we gave priority to OGF44 in selecting co-locations knowing it is important to us. We now want a complete programme on-line to advertise it and boost the registration process. We are only one month away from the start of the event. Can you please get in touch with Sara as soon as possible? see her points below, thanks TIziana On 15/04/15 12:46, Sara Coelho wrote: Dear Alan, (Andre and Andrew) good morning! I was wondering if you had time to have a look at my questions below, especially the ones about technical requirements for the plugfest. Thank you in advance. Best wishes, Sara On 08/04/2015 17:34, Sara Coelho wrote: Hi Alan, As you correctly guessed, there is a cost consideration driving my worries. In principle, we have nothing against a two-tracked, two-day'ed OGF44. In practice, if the meeting does not attract registrants... perhaps it's best to reduce the scope. (That is the concern I tried to convey in my previous email.) You propose a track for OGF and a track for the Cloud Plugfest - let's go with this. If we need a second room for your programme, we can find a place for the Plugfest to continue. Which brings me to my next question... What are your specific requirements? - Space - as discussed above, we can find something - Network - the venue is a university and has eduroam; plus, we will have a dedicated wifi network for the participants. Is this enough? If not, please let me know as soon as possible what else you requires, so I can see what is possible to organise at this stage. - Server support - I have no idea what this implies! Could you please be a bit more specific? Advertising the Cloud Plugfest - is this something I can help with? Or is there anything else I can do to promote registrations? Many thanks, Sara On 08/04/2015 17:15, Sill, Alan wrote: Hi Sara, We have positive feedback from several groups. I think two tracks is the safest approach right now; one for the Cloud Plugfest and one for OGF working group and community group meetings. If we need to borrow space from the Cloud Plugfest to get a group meeting done, are there other areas where participants can work with good networking and reasonable isolation? Cloud Plugfests often look like disasters in terms of organization but are very helpful for all concerned. They are at their best when we allow people time with laptops, networking and server support to learn how to use, test and work on coding for implementations and to interact with experts and other coders. I am at the mercy of the groups requesting space. We have requests from groups in the security area, which makes sense from the list that you sent. I am trying to encourage other groups, such as OCCI and GLUE, to meet there also, as well as our networking groups, the most actie of which is currently NSI. It will be a contraditction if we invite them to meet and do not have space to do so. Are there cost considerations that are driving you to want to reduce the number of tracks? Two tracks already seems like pretty much a minimum. Keep in mind that OGF is composed of several different groups that mostly do not overlap, so the common interest to meet together in one area is driven by the convenience and availability of working group and community group meeting space. I can also inquire of the OCCIware project if they would like to meet there, but again, space will have to be available. How large are the rooms you are planning to use? Can they be divided or combined as necessary to go from individual meeting room space to larger plenary gatherings? Will there be an auditorium or other large space available, and what portion if any of the EGI meeting itself will still be going on at that time?

Thanks for your email and taking time to think about this - I know it's a busy time! But I'm afraid your email leaves me with even more questions... - Do you need two parallel sessions over two days? I'm sorry to insist, but this is a key question for us at the moment. We are finalising room allocation and I am finding difficult to justify the two rooms we reserved for OGF44 over two days, given the low number of registrations and the lack of a programme/timetable, or even details about the event. Will you develop a programme that requires two parallel sessions over two days? - The Cloud Plugfest, in principle, is welcome - we ran one of these events before. In practice, I have two questions: -- I assume this will be part of the OGF44 programme (i.e., it will take a room currently reserved for the OGF44)? Please confirm. -- You wrote... It helps to have a sponsor for attendance for those who may want to come only for this event, typically those in the developer community. This is not required of course if those who will be participating are already registered to attend the EGI Conference itself. What / who will be the theme and the audience for this Plugfest? (Apologies if this is obvious but my I don't have a technical background.) - OGF44 programme: at the moment we don't have any information about OGF44 in Indico. Could you please provide: -- A summary of the event (short abstract, under 150 words) -- An outline of the programme (with talks, etc.), or a link to your events page I think this is important to motivate people to register in your event. At the moment with under 30 registrations and little else, is difficult for me to convince the local organisers of the need to keep two rooms reserved for you. Apologies if I sound pushy/difficult, but we're 5 weeks away from the event and it's time to get details in. Below you can find the list of attendees registered in OGF44. Please let me know if I can help in any way from this side. Your feedback regarding the above is appreciated as soon as possible.

Can you please help me to coordinate with you and the other people who will be coming for OGF by sending me the list of registrants so far, and following with an update every few days or so as things change or as you see fit? I have sent a reminder message out tho the OGF work groups list and also to the GFSG (Grid Forum Steering Group) to ask them to register. One complication is that it is not completely certain that I will be able to attend myself. I really hope to, as one of the things we have been able to achieve in my center is the ability to open participation in the interoperability testbed projects to international participants, which I announced at CloudScape VII in Brussels and Cloud Expo Europe in London last month, and would like very much to make this real through participation and collaboration with the EGI community. My travel schedule is however not completely under my own control as it is dictated by the need for me to interact frequently with NSF and our center members, so I have asked for help from the GFSG and our area directors within it to help coordinate the meeting requests there. Please send a list of registrants if that is OK, and let's keep in touch. I'm cc'ing Andre Merzky and Andrew Grimshaw of OGF also to make sure that communications don't get lost.

by Metsch, Thijs 13 Apr '15

13 Apr '15

Dear all, Thanks to the help of many people we are close to putting the documents defining the revision 1.2 of OCCI into public comment! To do so I want to ask all of you to review the documents as is and raise any possible show stoppers before putting these in public comment. We propose that the following documents will be put into public comment asap: As Recommendations: * OCCI Core rev 1.2 which will obsolete GFD-R 183. A Errata has been attached to the end of the document * OCCI Infrastructure rev 1.2 which will obsolete GFD-R 184. A Errata has been attached to the end of the document * OCCI Protocol which is a newly written document describing how OCCI entities are dealt with using HTTP. This will obsolete GFD-R 185. * OCCI Text rendering which is a newly written document describing how OCCI entities are rendered using a text format. This will obsolete GFD-R 185. * OCCI Json rendering which is a newly written document describing how OCCI entities are rendered using a JSON format. * OCCI Platform extension describing how a PaaS boundary interface can be modeled. * OCCI SLA extension describing how a SLAs can be managed As Informational documents: * EGI FedCloud Profile * Monitoring for OCCI We will soon decide about the following documents: * Notifications for OCCI * OCCI-DRMAA binding (together with DRMAA-wg) A PDF version of the documents is attached - The source can be found in our git repository on the master branch.

On behalf of Michel Drescher <michel.drescher(a)egi.eu>: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Dear OCCI WG, Further to our conversations please find attached a re-formatted profile document suitable for the recommendations track. I have added the two co-authors in cc:, as well as the CloudWatch Technical Coordinator since the work has been partially funded by said project (see also acknowledgements in the document). Although I have registered at redmine.ogf.org as OCCI WG member I am not sure that that also implies membership in the mailing list (the respective tab in redmine is empty). Boris, in case this Email gets bounced, may I ask you to submit on my behalf until the ML membership is sorted out?

Hi, We have a discussion scheduled for 4:00 - 5:30 pm today East Coast US time (inconvenient time for you, I know). I can try to bring you in over Skype to explain OCCI if you are available. Also we have a Cloud Plugfest tomorrow at which we will be explaining how to use the new US CloudLab and Chameleon facilities for standards testing. Anyone who has a virtual machine or recipe for preparing a standards-based add-on to any cloud software, please send the recipe to us so we can include it in the presentation to use at the Cloud Plugfest. Remote participation and provision of test servers for use at the Cloud Plugfest is very much needed and would be welcome! E-mail me separately or send to the group, and let me know your availability to participate.

Participation requested in Cloud Plugfest 16
by Sill, Alan 18 Mar '15

18 Mar '15

Dear OCCI and NSI work group members, Your participation is requested at the virtual Cloud Plugfest all next week and in-person sessions to take place Friday March 27 at the location of the GEC 22 / US Ignite / OGF 43 and GLIF meetings, the latter being the Hilton Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia. All OGF working and community groups are welcome, and I will send a separate message more widely to OGF and other SDO working groups, but there will be special interest in current implementations of OCCI and NSI at this session, and I would like therefore to ask you to participate specially. Information on the Cloud Plugfest series, which OGF supports as one of the co-sponsors, is available on the website at http://cloudplugfest.org Participation is free of course remotely, and free in person for all GEC 22/OGF 43 registered participants. We will be providing in-person access on Friday for the Cloud Plugfest sessions only, which take place after the conclusion of the GEC, at no cost through a special arrangement with a Cloud Plugfest sponsor. Registration is requested, even if you are only participating remotely. This will help us to identify the servers and client implementations that will be available for testing. For those of you who have participated in our plugfests before, this will be familiar territory. If you are a new participant in these events, please send me a message or write to the provided contact address of info(a)cloudplugfest.org if you have any questions. These events depend on you participating to make your servers and client implementations available for testing by the community. They are a good vehicle to exchange information among developers, and we have a list of past participants also that makes a good resource for further contacts. Please register at http://cloudplugfest.org and bring your talent and expertise to this event. One special note is that we will be demonstrating the use of the US Chameleon and CloudLab testbed-as-a-service environments at this event, fresh from demonstrations to take place earlier that week at the conference. If you would like to sign up for an account on either or both of these services ahead of time, please do so at http://chameleoncloud.org and look for and join the "FG-176 Cloud Interoperability Testbed" project, and/or at http://cloudlab.us and look for and join the "cacnetworking" project. These are requested by my center and approved for use in interoperability tests. Each supports at minimum an OpenStack environment now, and other cloud software environments can be added as needed (see the user guides for more details). Thanks very much and I hope to see you in person or virtually soon next week!

Hi, Hmm. mostly OK but I think we have to look ahead. HTTP/2 will certainly be through the publication pipeline by the time that OCCI 1.2 makes it to publications tatus for review. Some up to date references: https://http2.github.io http://www.ietf.org/blog/2015/02/http2-approved/ http://www.rfc-editor.org/queue2.html#draft-ietf-httpbis-http2 You may also want to look through the FAQ items: https://http2.github.io/faq/ I think that all that is necessary right now is to take note (as has been stated before by members of this group) that HTTP/2 does not affect the design or basic use of the OCCI specs, and initiate a study to explore the practical use of HTTP/2 with OCCI (1.1. or 1.2). For the latter, please join the “Cloud Interoperability testbed” project on Chameleon (http://chameleoncloud.org) (project FG-176) and/or the “cacnetworking” project on CloudLab (http://cloudlab.us) if your project has something to do with networking or would be a better fit there. These projects are new, managed by me, and approved specifically to do testing in multiple cloud software environments for interoperability and standards-based software. I would like to encourage the entire OCCI working group, and any other group member of standards efforts in other organizations to join. Accounts are free, the projects are new, and the door is open to participation from this group.

GFD.185 reference no. 5) and its serialisation mechanisms. Regarding the compatibility with HTTP/2, or whether HTTP/2 implementations would be considered eligible to claim conformance. Both OCCI Restful as well as the profile make references to the HTTP header rendering mechanism defined in HTTP 1.1. But neither imposes any conformance requirement that the HTTP/1.1 protocol itself must be used. Furthermore, the only situation in which this discussion applies is where both client and server support HTTP/2 - in all other situations, any attempt to initiate a protocol upgrade to HTTP/2 will fail and communications remain at HTTP/1.1 level. Having said that, HTTP/2 does impose any restrictions or changes on HTTP header rendering, HTTP messages etc. Hence conformity with both OCCI Rendering and the profile are considered as achieved from my point of view. Cheers, Michel P.S.: A corollary implication from this is IMHO that there is no need to upgrade any existing specification, even in the event of HTTP/2 obsoleting HTTP/1.1 (which it states as not being the goal).

I think that there are many advantages to using HTTP/2 for header compression, possibility to use multiplexed single-connection communications, binary representation, server push responses, etc. It’s backwards compatible so I think we need to allow for more generality. Good point. There is no specific reason to use HTTP/1.1, aside from it being referenced in OCCI 1.1 HTTP Rendering spec [1]. If using HTTP/2 doesn't break anything with regard to OCCI 1.1, we can use it. Otherwise it will have to be included in an updated version of the profile for OCCI 1.2. In any case, it would be an encouragement, not a requirement (for practical reasons). Michel, is this correct?

Reply-To: Ranganai Chaparadza <ran4chap(a)yahoo.com<mailto:ran4chap@yahoo.com>> Dear all, Please find attached the Workshop agenda we compiled with Tayeb and John. We hope that all of you will be able to join us at the workshop. Otherwise let us know. Our host, TMF, would like to have an estimate of the number of participants in order to support us with arrangements like they did last year. Representatives of the various groups, please feel free to make arrangements to have someone represent your group during the workshop, so as to summarize your group activities to other groups and/or give a summary of topics that could be better harmonized or coordinated by joint SDOs/Fora efforts (aspects to be added to the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper). This year we are adding the topics of PoCs for Use Cases that combine AMC (Autonomics), SDN and NFV. On the other hand a number of companies are working on Real-Time and Predictive Analytics aspects that pertain to management and control with feedback control-loops, Dynamic Network Policing and Services (Re-)Programming, Analytics-Driven Orchestration, etc. All these aspects are part of AMC(Autonomics), and so (as indicated in the agenda) we are inviting companies working on such topics that are connected to autonomics to attend the workshop and learn how they can contribute to the efforts in groups that are addressing AMC, namely: ETSI NTECH AFI, TMF ZOOM, IEEE NGSON, ITU-T SG13, etc. Therefore feel free to send the Draft Agenda to companies working on analytics-driven management & control software. Feel free to link interested folks from this topic with us so that we keep estimating the number of participants who will be coming. I mentioned earlier about an article by Joel Halpern on Standards Collision Around SDN, and so we have added this topic as well for brief discussions. Ken, I will update you with estimated number of participants, and we will will hear from you on how to go about the registrations. Thanks!

We are glad to be hosted by TMF and we appreciate and thank TMF for agreeing to host the workshop again this year during the TMF Week in June in Nice, France, on the 4th of June. Our plan is to go for a one day workshop like we did last year. We are now inviting various SDOs/Fora to be represented at the workshop. I have also included NIST and OGF who had indicated interest to join other SDOs/Fora in such joint SDOs/Fora discussions. Draft Agenda Items (more elaborate agenda will follow): 1. Present and discuss the status of the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper (first draft was presented at IEEE Globecom), which is aimed at capturing the issues requiring cross SDO/Fora or Joint-SDO harmonization efforts by two or more groups in some coordinated fashion (e.g. bilaterally, etc), including taxonomy harmonization on architectural models, etc. 2. To give each SDO/Fora the opportunity to provide summary update others on roadmaps and ideas they think better synergies or harmonization efforts with other groups could be pursued. These ideas for potential harmonization or synergies will also be added to the white paper. 3. Planning for Globecom 2015, to present updates of the joint SDOs/White Paper during Globecom 2015 in San Diego, California, and the concrete actions and items the SDOs/Fora will be taking (drawing from the white paper) on harmonization of standards. Publications and subsequent publications of the White Paper in the future. Regarding SDN, I would like to draw your attention to the paper by Joel Halpern on "Standards Collisions Around SDN", published in the IEEE Magazine on Communications Standards. We are also inviting such people to join the discussions at the workshop in June, so that we update the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper accordingly. I attach the Report from the workshop we had last year.

I am sending you the updates from IEEE Globecom 2014 (Austin, Texas), where we presented the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper on Industry Harmonization for Unified Standards on SDN, NFV, Autonomic Management & Control (AMC), 5G, ... Thanks to all panelists, the presentations and discussions at Globecom were very well received. Very good discussions and conclusions on how to keep progressing the Initiative on Industry Harmonization for Unified Standards on SDN, NFV and AMC. Here are the main points we agreed at Globecom 2014 on how to progress things. In a nutshell: 1. We agreed to try to use a Special IEEE Communication Magazine on Standardization (called Communications Standards Supplement) for publishing the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper, to reach a large community. That means as the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper will be maintained as a living document (we will keep updating it), we would want to try to keep publishing all subsequent versions of the White Paper using the IEEE Communications Magazine of Standards. With support of John, Steven, Mehmet, and Tayeb, where necessary, I will check with IEEE on the possibility to make use of this Communications Magazine for publishing and updating the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper. 2. We will arrange for the next joint SDOs/Fora Workshop as follow-up to Globecom 2014 and as follow-up to the joint SDO/Fora Workshop we had in Nice last year, which was hosted by TMF in June 2014. We will check with the SDOs/Fora to see where and when we can co-locate the Workshop with a meeting of one of the SDOs. We could go for the same arrangement like last year, i.e. to request TMF to host the workshop. We start checking things now. In the meantime we will also keep collecting input to the White Paper and continue editing it with John and Tayeb.

We hope you had a good summer break. We are sending you the Draft of the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper we have been structuring and preparing for compiling the contributions from the various SDOs/Fora Groups. Please find attached a clean version of the Draft (makes it easier to read through) and one with track changes. We kept the list of persons who were involved in Nice, but we will be adding more names and will probably have to move the Table of contributors to the end of the paper (as it will grow). Individuals may simply provide comments on some points either directly to us the editors or through their group's collective contributions. Please find attached Template your Group can use to provide us with some input. You will notice that in chapter 11, each Group is allocated a section in which we will put their brief summaries. Any input, including indications of some plans will be fine. The White Paper will be maintained as a living document, the groups will keep updating it. With co-editors: Tayeb, John and Steven, we will put efforts to consolidate all the input as we receive the inputs. We will keep you updated with successive versions of the paper. You have some time to compile input. As we arranged earlier, the first version of the joint SDOs/Fora White paper will be presented at Globecom in December (on the 10th and 11th), Texas, Austin. The panel at Globecom will present on behalf of all the SDOs/Fora, but we encourage people to promote the the White Paper in their organizations as well as participating to the Globecom Industry Forum Sessions in which the paper will be jointly presented (if they can, or they can raise awareness to people from various organizations who will be attending Globecom). For promoting the paper, it may be good to wait for the stable version to come later. I will send more details on the Final Program of Globecom and Indications of the many interesting Industry Forum Sessions that will cover other topics and technologies.

We hope you had a good summer break. We are sending you the Draft of the joint SDOs/Fora White Paper we have been structuring and preparing for compiling the contributions from the various SDOs/Fora Groups. Please find attached a clean version of the Draft (makes it easier to read through) and one with track changes. We kept the list of persons who were involved in Nice, but we will be adding more names and will probably have to move the Table of contributors to the end of the paper (as it will grow). Individuals may simply provide comments on some points either directly to us the editors or through their group's collective contributions. Please find attached Template your Group can use to provide us with some input. You will notice that in chapter 11, each Group is allocated a section in which we will put their brief summaries. Any input, including indications of some plans will be fine. The White Paper will be maintained as a living document, the groups will keep updating it. With co-editors: Tayeb, John and Steven, we will put efforts to consolidate all the input as we receive the inputs. We will keep you updated with successive versions of the paper. You have some time to compile input. As we arranged earlier, the first version of the joint SDOs/Fora White paper will be presented at Globecom in December (on the 10th and 11th), Texas, Austin. The panel at Globecom will present on behalf of all the SDOs/Fora, but we encourage people to promote the the White Paper in their organizations as well as participating to the Globecom Industry Forum Sessions in which the paper will be jointly presented (if they can, or they can raise awareness to people from various organizations who will be attending Globecom). For promoting the paper, it may be good to wait for the stable version to come later. I will send more details on the Final Program of Globecom and Indications of the many interesting Industry Forum Sessions that will cover other topics and technologies. Best Regards, Ranganai
