Release 0.3.0

Axemblr Provisionr 0.3.0 - Release Notes

What is Axemblr Provisionr?

Simple Service for Managing Pools of 10s or 100s of Virtual Machines

With Provisionr we want to solve the problem of cloud portability by hiding completely the API and only focusing on building a cluster that matches the same set of assumptions on all clouds, assumptions like: running a specific operating system (e.g. Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), having the same set of pre-installed packages and binaries, sane dns settings (forward & reverse ip resolution - as needed for Hadoop), ntp settings, networking settings, ssh admin access, vpn access etc.

What's new in this release?

The highlights are:

• #127 re-factored the support for pre-configured templates (e.g. Jenkins, CDH3)

• #138 integration with Rundeck. Just use http://localhost:8080/rundeck/machines.xml as a resource model source (no caching).

• #52 support for Amazon EC2 spot instances

We've also improved the project structure to make it easy to deploy side-by-side with your own application in a Karaf container.
