6 | 31e6eb2d | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | | Synnefo is open source cloud software, used to create massively scalable IaaS |
7 | 31e6eb2d | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | clouds. |
8 | 64bcbfe9 | Kostas Papadimitriou | | Synnefo uses `Google Ganeti <http://code.google.com/p/ganeti/>`_ for the low |

10 | 9940eacf | Kostas Papadimitriou | |
11 | aacbeed2 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | | You can see Synnefo in action, powering GRNET's |

13 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | | It is a collection of components (snf-*), most of them written in python, that |
14 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | are used as the building bricks to provide the following services: |

39 | aacbeed2 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | Synnefo is designed to be as simple, scalable and production ready as possible. |
40 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | Furthermore, although it can be deployed in small configurations, its prime |
41 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | target is large installations. If you are planning for the latter, you should |
42 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | first be completely aware of what you want to provide, the architecture of your |
43 | aacbeed2 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | cluster/s and Synnefo's overall architecture before you start deploying. |
44 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | |
45 | aacbeed2 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | All Synnefo components use an intuitive settings mechanism, that gives you the |
46 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | ability to either deploy the above services independently and standalone, or |
47 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | interconnected with each other, in large configurations. |

54 | eab73849 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | with multiple Ganeti clusters. Right click on the image and select "Open image |

62 | bc055d09 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | Synnefo Guides |
63 | bc055d09 | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | ============== |
64 | d0e436db | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | |
65 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | There are 4 guides for Synnefo. |
66 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | |
67 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | The quick installation guide describes how to install the whole synnefo stack |
68 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | in just two physical nodes, for testing purposes. This guide is useful to those |
69 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | interested in deploying synnefo in large scale, as a starting point that will |
70 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | help them get familiar with the synnefo components and overall architecture, as |
71 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | well as the interconnection between different services. Such an installation, |
72 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | also provides a quick preview of the basic synnefo features, although we would |
73 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | like to think that synnefo unveils its real power while scaling. |
74 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | |
75 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | The Administrator's Guide targets system administrators, who want to dive into |
76 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | more details and common tasks regarding Synnefo. The Developer's Guide targets |
77 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | developers, who want to build on top of Synnefo and so describes all the |
78 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | different types of interfaces Synnefo provides to the external world. The |
79 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | Integrator's Guide targets developers, who want to actually |
80 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | extend/modify/change Synnefo itself, so describes Synnefo's indepth |
81 | 7a3439cf | Constantinos Venetsanopoulos | architecture and the internals of Synnefo components. |
