Toward a Holistic Framework for Conducting Scientific Evaluations of OpenStack

Résumé

By massively adopting OpenStack for operating small to large private and public clouds, the industry has made it one of the largest running software project, overgrowing the Linux kernel. However, with success comes increased complexity; facing technical and scientific challenges , developers are in great difficulty when testing the impact of individual changes on the performance of such a large codebase, which will likely slow down the evolution of OpenStack. Thus, we claim it is now time for the scientific community to join the effort and get involved in the development of OpenStack, like it has been once done for Linux. In this spirit, we developed Enos, an integrated framework that relies on container technologies for deploying and evaluating OpenStack on any testbed. Enos allows researchers to easily express different configurations, enabling fine-grained investigations of OpenStack services. Enos collects performance metrics at runtime and stores them for post-mortem analysis and sharing. The relevance of the Enos approach to reproducible research is illustrated by evaluating different OpenStack scenarios on the Grid'5000 testbed.
