Abstract

Today organizations own resources and infrastructures (i.e. networking devices, gateways, wireless devices) that would like to either offer through the cloud model or to combine with resources of other infrastructures. Federation can be enabled by means of a resource broker that matches customer’s requested services and providers’ resources according to the agreed SLA. Users need ways to define complex deployments and request for resources without knowing the underlying infrastructure details. In this paper we present the Federation Scenario Toolkit (FSToolkit) that enables the definition of resource request scenarios, agnostic in term of providers. This work adopts Software Engineering practices considering the concepts of modeling and meta-modeling to define a resource broker and to specify scenarios by applying the Domain Specific Modeling (DSM) paradigm. FSToolkit is developed for experimentally driven research for validating through testing-scenarios new architectures and systems at scale and under realistic environments by enabling federation of resources.
