This is what we are currently lacking. We haven't test with CloudStack, this is very good opportunity to test on CloudStack also. Currently test are done on EC2 and OpenStack. So looking forward to getting this infrastructure for Stratos dev. thanks On Thu, Jan 9, 2014 at 8:14 PM, JasHion Daly <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Hi Chris/Devs, I run an IaaS company and we can contribute server space for Stratos development at no cost. We currently have an available server with approx. 50GB of RAM that we could make available to the project. Moving forward we can likely donate more infrastructure resources as needed. The Stratos devs could then get access to the IaaS control panel and configure instances, etc. as needed. Please let me know if interested and we could probably have a private cloud for this dev environment setup in a few weeks. We prefer to use CloudStack as the IaaS platform but are flexible.

Docker looks awesome, please let me know how you get on with it! If you use a rhel or fedora docker image, packstack may be an option as that makes setting up openstack very easy. This is what I'm using in vagrant: https://github.com/snowch/vagrant-packstack/blob/master/scripts/openstack_setup.sh Cheers, Chris On Sat, Dec 28, 2013 at 5:27 PM, Lakmal Warusawithana <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: HI Chris, We (in WSO2) are testing AWS and local OpenStack cloud for Stratos. But I have separate laptop ( 8 GB ) for OpenStack with KVM, which I use some developer testing for Stratos. I am running Stratos servers in my laptop and pointing to OpenStack setup which in other laptop. I tried OpenStack Havana with docker in my mac virtual box VM, but still could not set it up properly (will find some time to finish it). I thing thats the best option to do developer testing for Stratos. I will let you know when it finished.

It's so painful, I've made a decision to buy an old but powerful server (32Gb memory) on ebay to more easily run openstack and stratos. I'm not using AWS for developing Stratos as I have found in the past that it is very easy to accumulate big bills for development if you are constantly starting and stopping servers. I'm wondering whether one of the reasons Stratos is slow attracting new individual (and maybe corporate) contributors because there is a high cost to getting started? Just out of interest, what does your development environment look like? Do you all develop against AWS, or do you have local openstack environments, or something else?
