Goal: The main aim of the subject is to get practical skills on cloud computing systems. Besides the public cloud computing services (e.g. Amazon Web Services), there is a special focus on setting up of platform services (e.g. Microsoft Azure) and their access through various interfaces. The students get familiar with the step-by-step deployment and operation of private Infrastructure-as-a-Service clouds particularly based on open-source solutions (e.g. OpenNebula and OpenStack). For demonstration purposes Big Data and IoT (Internet of Things) applications will be presented during the practices.
Course description: Build, operate, and deploy OpenNebula private cloud solution. Build and use of S3 data storage. Cloud orchestration and reference architectures. Deploying and using Docker container technology and Docker Swarm cluster. Creating a distributed NoSQL database on Docker basis.
