Automating the installation of Apache VCL on OpenStack
by Christopher N. Wolfe; Mark K. Gardner
International Journal of Cloud Computing (IJCC), Vol. 5, No. 1/2, 2016

Abstract: Installing a cloud infrastructure is an involved undertaking. Even more so if one desires the Apache VCL, itself a cloud platform, running on top. This paper discusses one approach to automating the installation of both OpenStack and VCL. Particular emphasis is placed on accommodating both small-scale test deployments and full scale production environments. The modular approach taken here first automates the installation of OpenStack, then the installation of the Apache VCL, and finally the integration of the two. The approach taken is applicable to the installation of any large software system composed of complex subsystems.
