Abstract

A mechanism for accessing heterogeneous resources through the integration of various cloud management platforms is presented. In this scheme, hardware resources are offered using virtualization, containerization and as bare metal. Traditional management frameworks for managing these offerings are employed and invoked using a novel resource coordinator. This coordinator also provides an interface for cloud consumers to deploy applications on the underlying heterogeneous resources. The realization of this scheme in the context of the CloudLightning project is presented and a demonstrative use case is given to illustrate the applicability of the proposed solution.
