Hello All,
We have developed an in-house control panel for Xen. I would like to know what kind of interest there is for this panel and the answer to the question of what we should do with it. This is not vaporware, but it is operational at this point. It runs on the LAMP platform and is managing our farm.
Current Features
1. Traffic monitoring for each domU(inbound/outbound).
2. CPU monitoring for each dom0.
3. Location service for each domU if you have multiple dom0's.
4. Rapid build of dom0's from with gfs. (I don't know if this will ever be released as we have proprietary information in this feature)
5. Support for live migration from webpage.
6. Support for provisioning of new domU's from web interface. We are currently expanding this feature and it will allow selection of os images and configuration of the domU's.
7. Growing of domU's file systems on GFS from a web interface.
8. Health monitor of the farm, you can see what is running on each dom0.
9. This is targeted for a hosting company, but can be targeted for almost any application.
10. Support for restarting, starting and destroying domU's.
Questions
1. Is there any interest in this, and if so what level of interest?
2. I am considering if I should open source these or if they should be left closed source and maybe on a subscription basis only. The investment in time and money has been great, and the competition would use this software as well.
3. How should it be marketed and if it is what would be a fair price?
4. Should I develop a Xen in a box type of system? We have done this and can bring a stable Xen/GFS farm online in about three hours.
5. What other features does everyone want on this?
Thanks in Advance,
Linn
