1. Eucalyptus Cloud Computing Overview and Functions of Components Abhishek Gukhura 24210012 CSE Mtech

2. Introduction to Eucalyptus Eucalyptus (Elastic Utility Computing Architecture for Linking Your Programs To Useful Systems). Developed in 2008 at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) as a research project and it is developed by Dr. Rich Wolski. it is an open-source cloud computing platform that enables organizations to build private and hybrid cloud environments. It is designed to be compatible with Amazon Web Services (AWS) , providing Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) capabilities.

4. Cloud Controller (CLC) Manages overall cloud infrastructure. Handles authentication, authorization and resource allocation. Acts as the entry point for users and administrators. Provides an Amazon EC2-compatible API for users to request resources .

5. Cluster Controller (CC) • Manages a group of Node Controllers. • Handles VM (instance) execution requests from CLC . • Acts as an intermediary between the CLC and NCs.

6. Node Controller (NC) • Runs on physical server that host VMs • Responsible for creating, running, and monitoring virtual machines • Uses a hypervisor (KVM or Xen) to run VMs.

7. Storage Controller (SC) • Provides persistent block storage for VMs (similar to AWS EBS). • Manages VM disk images and data volumes.

8. Walrus (Storage Service) • Acts as an object storage service, similar to AWS S3. • Supports file uploads/downloads via an S3-compatible API. • Stores VM images, snapshots, and backups.

9. Real-Life Use Cases of Eucalyptus • NASA used Eucalyptus for a private cloud environment. • Enterprises use it to create cost-effective private clouds.

10. Conclusion • Eucalyptus provides a powerful private and hybrid cloud solution. • Its AWS compatibility makes it easier for cloud adoption. • It offers flexibility, scalability, and cost savings for enterprises.
