Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNPSE,volume 11771))

Abstract

MELODIC is and open source platform for autonomic deployment and optimized management of Cross-Cloud applications. The MELODIC platform is a complete, enterprise ready solution using only open source software. The contribution of this paper is the discussion of approaches to integration and various options for large scale open source projects and their evaluation showing that only a combination of an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) with Business Process Management (BPM) for platform integration and control, and the use of a distributed Event Management Services (EMS) for monitoring state and creating context awareness, will provide the required stability and reliability. Consequently, the selection, the evaluation, and the design process of these three crucial components of the MELODIC platform are described.

This work has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 731664 MELODIC: Multi-cloud Execution-ware for Large-scale Optimised Data-Intensive Computing.
