Tom,
Not sure how much time I will have to help out here. I got started with Aria on
the assumption that it would allow me to integrate/orchestrate apps with/on
kubernetes or docker based runtimes. I got subsequent feedback that I need to
use Cloudify for that for now, as Aria doesn't provide a complete (enough)
solution for now. "Enough" for me would be (in order):
1) instantiate multiple-component TOSCA-based apps/VNFs as pods in k8s or
docker-ce clusters (i.e. with k8s or docker-ce as control plane)
2) do (1) where some of the components are not cloud-native, and need to be run
under other control planes (e.g. OpenStack)
Beyond that, a modeled lifecycle management layer based upon Aria would be very
interesting, but for now I assume that by design Aria is only the adapter and
is not (now, or intended to be) a comprehensive stateful lifecycle management
layer. But getting starting with one lifecycle event (instantiation) would be
helpful anyway, *if* Aria has the ability to integrate with k8s/docker-ce as
above.
Thanks,
Bryan Sullivan

Subject: Updating Getting Started
Vish and I spent a couple of hours earlier this week breaking down
ARIA-309
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIA-309
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIA-309>) in an effort to update the
“Getting
Started” materials for the project. There was some fruitful discussion on the
list
between myself first, then Vish and then Brian Sullivan on what was out-of-date
in the instructions and materials. I’ve captured what I think are those actual
items
in the updated Jira item and will start working on these shortly (and would love
some help too). Vish/Brian at a minimum, please go back and verify that what
is in
here is accurate, but I encourage everyone else to do so too. If you do want to
go through these items literally, please invoke a virgin dev environment so
that things
are not working from a previous build/use.
Thanks!
—Tom
