Abstract

Cloud computing has emerged as an important paradigm enabling software, infrastructure, and information to be used as services over the network in an on-demand manner. Cloud computing infrastructures can provide adaptive resource provisioning with very little initial investment while scaling to a large number of commodity computing nodes. In this paper, we present Openstack, a modular and highly adaptive open source architecture for both public and private cloud solutions. It is shown an experimental implementation of an IaaS, built on entry-level hardware, demonstrating the hardware, and most important, the basic software components needed to set the foundation for a solid entry-point to setup a low-cost Openstack cloud infrastructure.
