Hello guys,

Was wondering if there has been any work on integrating JuJu with cloudstack? If so, could you please point me in the right direction?

Many thank

Andrei

There aren't currently any charms written for CloudStack that I can find, but they shouldn't be too hard to write. You'd need to break them down into a few different charms, depending on how you or others might want to deploy them. You'll want to browse some of the other charms to borrow from existing work such as things needed for MySQL and NFS, I would think those for sure have been written and could be reused. Other things like KVM, libvirt, qemu and the like are probably also lurking around in the charms store to be borrowed from.

If there's a large enough community backing for Juju I could probably work on this at some point, but it probably wouldn't been as soon as you'd need it if you're looking to roll your own install now.

You may want to start a [DISCUSS] thread to solicit feedback from the community on interest and implementation options. Getting an idea of what people would like before digging in would help anyone who's willing to work on making it possible. Personally, I think for those using MASS it might be something they would like to see. Especially for CEPH support since CentOS support is lagging.

I think it would be a great addition to the overall ecosystem/config mgt. Go for it !
