Hi Tomcat Expert, You probably know Ubuntu from the Ubuntu desktop or phone. You might know that we are the number 1 operating system in the cloud and the number 1 OpenStack distribution.
What you might not know is that one of our latest open source products, Juju<http://juju.ubuntu.com>can instantly deploy, integrate and scale any server software on any cloud or server. An expert makes a charm<https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/charms.html> one time and anybody in the world can instantly deploy it via "juju deploy charmname" or via our GUI <http://jujucharms.com> We are trying to give anybody in the world an instant high-available/clustered tomcat stack based on a blueprint design. If you want to understand what we mean with "instant" just go to comingsoon.jujucharms.com and drag and drop the tomcatHAstack.yaml file on the canvas. You will see how tomcat, apache, haproxy, memcached, terracotta, mysql, postgres and mongo all get installed in multiple instances and mostly all get instantly integrated. This is exactly our problem, we are almost where we want to be with creating instant Tomcat clusters and having tomcat come pre-integrated with lots of third-party software. However we must admit that we are not a Java fortress. We are not an expert on how to make the tomcat clustering work on any cloud. We build three versions of tomcat but non is really the top quality that we would have hoped for: tomcat charm<http://comingsoon.jujucharms.com/sidebar/search/~robert-ayres/precise/tomcat-3/?text=tomcat> tomcat7 charm<http://comingsoon.jujucharms.com/sidebar/search/oneiric/tomcat7-0/?text=tomcat> tomcat6 charm<http://comingsoon.jujucharms.com/sidebar/search/precise/tomcat6-1/?text=tomcat> We now got a request from a non-profit group, that is creating open source software to help poor countries better manage their health records, to use our tomcat charm to install their software in high-availability clusters. We could really use some help from the tomcat community and ideally have the tomcat community take over the ownership of the tomcat charm hence anybody can instantly have blueprint solutions that come pre-integrated and scale on the click of a button. Can you please help us? We can give you remote training on how to charm and you can find more info on creating charms here <https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/authors-charm-writing.html>. Many thanks, Maarten
