Xen Projects

Here are some active projects within the Xen Community looking for participation (feel free to email stephen.spector@xen.org if you want your project added to this list):

  • Xen API Project - (Contact: Stephen Spector)

  • Xen ARM Project - (Contact: Sang-bum Suh)

  • Xen Client Initiative (XCI) - (Contact: Stephen Spector)

  • Embedded Xen Project - (Contact: Daniel Rossier)
    • Definition: Xen port on ARM for embedded hard/soft realtime applications
    • Links: Embedded Xen Sourceforge - Mailing List
    • The project strongly relies on existing materials such as the Xen ARM project managed by Sang-bum Suh.

  • Xengine Project - (Contact: Joshua West)
    • Definition: A management console written in Python via the TurboGears framework. All communications with Xen dom0's is performed via the XenAPI.The dashboard is dynamically populated via AJAX, on a dom0 by dom0 case basis.

  • XenAccess Library Project - (Contact: Bryan Payne)
    • Definition: When running multiple domains (or virtual machines) using the Xen hypervisor, this library will allow a privileged domain to view the runtime state of another domain. This technique is known as virtual machine introspection. The current software focuses on memory access, but also provides proof-of-concept code for disk monitoring.

  • Zentific Project - (Contact: Steven Maresca)

  • Project Ganeti - (Contact: Henning Sprang)
    • Definition:Ganeti is a tool for the management of Virtualization clusters. It offers very easy management of systems with multiple virtualization servers and deployment of instances on these. It includes user transparent setup of mirrored disks for these nodes with DRBD, running commands on all cluster nodes and distributing files on the whole cluster.

  • Project Kemari - (Contact: Yoshi Tamura)

  • IBM Open Virtual Format Project - (Contact: Mike Day)

  • Snowflock Project - (Contact: Andres Lagar Cavilla)
    • Definition: Snowflock is our prototype implementation of the Impromptu Cluster (IC) abstraction. In an IC, an application encapsulated inside a virtual machine (VM) is swiftly forked into multiple copies that execute on different physical hosts, and then disappear when the computation ends. ICs simplify the development of parallel applications and reduces management burden by enabling the instantiation of new stateful computing elements: workers that need no setup time because they have a memory of the application state achieved up to the point of forking. This approach combines the benefits of cluster-based parallelism with those of running inside a VM.

  • Xen Around the World - (Contact: Stephen Spector)
    • Definition: Case studies of Xen from every continent. Help show the world that Xen is running everywhere. Prize to anyone who can find Xen running in Antarctica

  • Xen Bugs - (Contact: Stephen Spector)
    • Definition: Weekly tracking of new bugs listed in Bugzilla for the community to work on.
