Hi everyone I’m new to Cloudstack and need some initial help and guidance. Greatly appreciate if anybody is able to help me out. I'm signed up to the users and dev mailing groups; apologies if this is the wrong group for this subject.
We’ve recently done a POC in our organisation on Cloudstack and are thinking about adopting it in our organisation. I’m looking at how we’re going to support it going forward (and maybe make some developments ourselves) and one of our options is to get some of our internal developers up to speed. So, we’re interested in working with the Cloudstack code. The first thing I’d like to establish is what technologies Cloudstack is based on. I understand its written in java, but it would be great if I could get an understanding of the sort of skills and experience required to be able to work with the code (i.e. databases, frameworks etc). Also, an idea of what other knowledge developers should have (I’d guess they need to know about virtualisation, etc). Then I’ll know who in my team to get involved. I’d also like to find out how to go about setting up a Cloudstack development environment; if there are any good/easy ways to go about doing this so we can take an initial look at the code & how it all hangs together. Would anybody be able to point me in the right direction – is this information published anywhere? Many thanks for you time! *Alexander Hitchins* ------------------------- e: a...@alexhitchins.com w: alexhitchins.com m: 07788 423 969
