To improve hardware utilization and save manpower in system maintenance, most of the web services in IHEP have been migrated to a private cloud build upon OpenStack. However, cyber security attacks becomes a serious threats to the cloud progressively. Therefore, a cyber security detection and monitoring system is deployed for this cloud platform. This system collects various security related logs as data sources, and processes them in a framework composed of open source data store, analysis and visualization tools. With this system, security incidents and events can be handled in time and rapid response can be taken to protect cloud platform against cyber security threats.

Over the last few years the majority of small and large companies moving to cloud computing to develop IT solutions for businesses. It is technology which provides distributed and dynamically shared computing resources using certain operating techniques. In the revolution of information technology, cloud computing is becoming a key paradigm. Cloud computing further classified as Public, Private and Hybrid Cloud. It provides three services which are categorized as Infrastructure-as-Service, Platform-as-Service and Software-as-Service. Open source cloud management platforms providing Infrastructure-as-a-service are now commonly used because of the fastest growth of cloud. Many open source softwares are available for deploying public or private cloud. This paper provides a brief review and comparison of five well-known open source cloud software i.e. OpenNebula, Eucalyptus, OpenStack, Nimbus and CloudStack providing IaaS on the basis of their similar features and technology used. After reviewing the importance and features, we have found OpenStack Cloud Platform is more reliable and useful for the enterprises and organization because of its feature and rapid improvements in its features. The distinction in this paper is believed to help people to choose the suitable open source software according to their need.

PurposeMajor public cloud providers, such as AWS, Azure or Google, offer seamless experiences for infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS). With the emergence of the public cloud's vast usage, administrators must be able to have a reliable method to provide the seamless experience that a public cloud offers on a smaller scale, such as a private cloud. When a smaller deployment or a private cloud is needed, OpenStack can meet the goals without increasing cost or sacrificing data control.Design/methodology/approachTo demonstrate these enablement goals of resiliency and elasticity in IaaS and PaaS, the authors design a private distributed system cloud platform using OpenStack and its core services of Nova, Swift, Cinder, Neutron, Keystone, Horizon and Glance on a five-node deployment.FindingsThrough the demonstration of dynamically adding an IaaS node, pushing the deployment to its physical and logical limits, and eventually crashing the deployment, this paper shows how the PackStack utility facilitates the provisioning of an elastic and resilient OpenStack-based IaaS platform that can be used in production if the deployment is kept within designated boundaries.Originality/valueThe authors adopt the multinode-capable PackStack utility in favor of an all-in-one OpenStack build for a true demonstration of resiliency, elasticity and scalability in a small-scale IaaS. An all-in-one deployment is generally used for proof-of-concept deployments and is not easily scaled in production across multiple nodes. The authors demonstrate that combining PackStack with the multi-node design is suitable for smaller-scale production IaaS and PaaS deployments.
