Elastic Computing has emerged as a popular SLA-based utility computing paradigm that is has seen rapid uptake in the small-and-medium business e-commerce market place. First deployed by Amazon.com, a number of service hosting enterprises and technology providers have since developed utility, cloud, or elastic product and/or service offerings. In this talk, we will present Eucalyptus -- an open source implementation of cloud computing that is interface compatible with Amazon.com's EC2. The talk will focus on the design, the implementation tradeoffs we have identified in implementing Eucalyptus as an exploratory tool, and the ways in which we have chosen to address these tradeoffs in the first version of the software. We will outline the design of EUCALYPTUS, discuss its architectural and administrative characteristics, and detail the degree to which it achieves the ability to implement elastic computing as a service overlay.
