Abstract
This paper presents the design of the XenoServer Open Platform: a public infrastructure for wide-area computing, capable of hosting tasks that span the full spectrum of distributed programming. The platform integrates resource management, charging and auditing. We emphasize the control-plane aspects of the system, showing how it supports service deployment with a low cost of entry and how it forms a substrate over which other distributed computing platforms can be deployed.
