This repository contains the prototypical implementation of the Model-Driven Configuration Management of Cloud Applications with OCCI (MoDMaCAO) framework and the models for several example use cases.
The MoDMaCAO modeling framework is based on OCCI-Studio and allows cloud architects to:
- design abstract types modeling cloud applications and their components,
- model configured instances of cloud applications that use the defined abstract types, and
- check the validity of instances of cloud applications.
To get started with MoDMaCAO you can download and setup OCCI-Studio or use our preconfigured virtual machine (vm) image.
To use the pre-configured image, e.g., VirtualBox can be used:
- Download the virtual image from here.
- The password is
modmacao.
- The password is
- Import the appliance in VirtualBox.
- Start the VM and log in.
- Both username and password are:
modmacao.
- Both username and password are:
- Navigate to the OCCI-Studio folder on the desktop and double-click on the executable file
OCCI-Studio.
The steps required for a manual setup of MoDMaCAO are enumerated in the following:
- Requirements: Java (11.0.13), Ansible
- Download the latest release of OCCI-Studio here.
- After downloading the proper archive according to your OS, unzip it
- Navigate to the OCCI-Studio folder and double-click on the executable file
OCCI-Studio. - Import the
MoDMaCAOproject into the workspace:- File->Import->Git..
A screenshot displaying the imported MoDMaCAO project is shown below.
After successfully importing the project, you can navigate to the *.example projects and launch the MoDMaCAO modeling tools.
For further scenarios, refer to the Tutorials and Use Cases section.
- Custom designers for OCCI applications
- Using MoDMaCAO with Ansible
- Using the OpenStack Connector of MoDMaCAO
