Infrastructure
iMarine as an infrastructure offers a variety of functionality to its end users directly or to Infrastructure Managers. The functionality that are offered mainly by gCube services ( in gCube terminology named Enabling services ) or third party tools can be classified in the following categories:
- Deployment : The Infrastructure trough its enabling services is capable of automatic deploy and activate Software Bundles remotely, thus allowing administrators to remotely manage software installation and upgrades.
- Hosting : End user are endowed to upload, deploy and activate their software bundles ( war) on the Infrastructures by relying on a simple and intuitive Graphical Wizard and Management interface.
- Resources Lifecycle : Services and nodes running on the infrastructure can be managed remotely in terms of activation/deactivation, assignment to VOs and VREs ( which dynamically groups users and resorces assigned to them), publication to an Information System for their easy discovering.
- Monitoring : Services and nodes deployed on the infrastructure are monitored semi-automatically by the usage of de-facto standard tools, like Nagios and Nagios-NRPE. Infrastructure Administrators and Site Managers can be notified in case of issues and promptly react.
- Accounting : The infrastructure account the usage of the tools that are provided trough its Graphical interfaces. In addition the accounting at the level of resources ( storage, CPUs etc) not yet available is going to be included soon, and will help administrators in the definition of policies on the usage of the infrastructure.
