Differences in CMF-side Capabilities and Implementations

This is work in progress, a page that should catalogue differences between different cloud management frameworks used in FedCloud with respect to the implementation of features through OCCI.

Feature / Problem OpenNebula / rOCCI specifics OpenStack / OOI specifics Synnefo specifics AWS / rOCCI specifics
Selecting default network: connecting Compute resources to networks on creation in case no Network Link is specified. In case just one Network is applicable, OOI picks it and creates the link. Otherwise a link must be specified.
Treatment of the PUBLIC Network PUBLIC Network does not actually exist in OpenStack. There is a plan to create it automagically on request when creating Compute resources that want to link with it.
Inline links (NetworkInterface): The creation of links to Network resources inline with the creation of a Compute instance. Different CMFs behave differently if there is more than one applicable network.
Linking existing resources (NetworkInterface): linking Compute and Network instances during their lifetime. Not supported by AWS at all. Linking is only possible on VM creation.
