Cloudpods

What is Cloudpods?

Cloudpods is a cloud-native open source unified multi/hybrid-cloud platform developed with Golang, i.e. Cloudpods is a cloud on clouds. Cloudpods is able to manage not only on-premise KVM/baremetals, but also resources from many cloud accounts across many cloud providers. It hides the differences of underlying cloud providers and exposes one set of APIs that allow programatically interacting with these many clouds.

Who needs Cloudpods?

Those who need a simple solution to virtualize a few physical servers into a private cloud
Those who need a compact and fully automatic baremetal lift-cycle management solution
Those who want to turn a VMware vSphere virtualization cluster into a private cloud
Those who need a cohesive view of both public and private cloud in a hybrid cloud setup
Those who need a centric portal to access multiple acccounts from multiple public clouds
Those who is currently using a single cloud account, but will not lose the possibility to adopt multicloud strategy

Quick start

You may install Cloudpods in a Linux box (currently CentOS 7 and Debian 10 are fully tested) with at least 8GiB RAM and 100GB storage by following three steps.

(Assuming that you install Cloudpods on a Linux box with IP 10.168.26.216):

1. Prepare passwordless SSH login

# Generate a local ssh keypair
# (SKIP this step if you already have ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub locally. Make sure generating key WIHOUT passphrase)
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -N ''

# Copy the generated ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub public key to the machine to be deployed
$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@10.168.26.216

# Try to login to the machine to be deployed without password,
# should be able to get the hostname of the deployed machine
# without entering the login password
$ ssh root@10.168.26.216 "hostname"

2. Install git and relevant tools

For CentOS 7

yum install -y git epel-release ansible

For Debian 10

apt install -y git ansible

3. Install Cloudpods

Run the following commands to start installing Cloudpods.

# Git clone the ocboot installation tool locally
$ git clone -b release/3.8 https://github.com/yunionio/ocboot && cd ./ocboot && ./run.py 10.168.26.216

It takes 10-30 minutes to finish the installation. You may visit the webconsole of Cloudpods at https://10.168.26.216. The initial login account is admin and password is admin@123.
