A bit about us Stephan Hartmann ● Senior Java Architect and Developer for 15 years ● Working with OpenCms since 2000 ● Working on large scale Java Enterprise Portals
Arash Kaffamanesh ● Open Cloud Solution Architect ● Working with OpenCms since 2002 (Kaitain Release) ● Building the first OpenCms CloudSite Offering
Agenda ● What is “Cloud” ● Why Cloud ● Requirements of Cloud Readiness of a Java WebApp ● Problems ● Solutions ● About OCCX ● OCCX and Data Grid Platforms ● OpenCms Clustering on Hybrid Clouds with OCCX ● OpenCms Cluster on Eucalyptus, AWS and ProfitBrikcs ● OpenCms Quick- and Auto- Scaling with OCCX ● Classic- and Elastic- Load Balancing
What is “Cloud” ● Fuzzy Word ● Virtual Server -> Cloud Server? ● SaaS really new? (ASP in 90ies) ● Cloud == Internet? ● Red Cloud (SaaS 2.0) - Blue Cloud (PaaS, SaaS 3.0) ● The PaaS Marketing Lie
Why Cloud • High Availability • Fault-Tolerance • Performance • Scalability, Auto-Scaling ("Slashdot effect"), true
Horizontal Scaling • Deployment Automation - Fast Deployments (HA) • Staging • Administration, Maintenance • Development, DevOps • Cost saving, increase agility
Requirements for Cloud-Readiness of a Java WebApp • What the Servlet Spec says (<distributable/>, not
enough) • Container Support for Distribution of WebApp • Container Support for Distribution of Http Sessions • NO! Distribution of Application Scope ⇒ No support for
Shared Memory • Objects have to be Serializable • Shared Persistent Storage (DB) • Transactions
Problems ● Multiple Processes (Java VMs) have no shared Memory
for e.g. maintaining state of transient objects ● Instance, Class and Application Scope Variables ● Singleton Objects only per VM ● Comparison (==, != vs. equals()) ● Local Caches ● Serialization
Problems in the Case of OpenCms ● Flex-Cache (Presentation Layer) ● Core-Cache (Persistence Layer) ● Static Export ● Events ● Serialization E.g. CmsGroup, CmsUser, CmsProject ● Map<String, Object> E.g. CmsPrincipal.m_additionalInfo ● Local Objects E.g. CmsBroadcast ● Comparison E.g. CmsLockType, CmsResourceState ● Search Indexes ● BUG: Resources have Cache, but it is not used, File Content no Cache at
all
Example: Comparison of Objects
JSP
Request Phases of OpenCms
Flex Cache
Request Response
Core Cache
DB
Solution 1 (no Code Changes in Core) ● Only one Workplace Server (Master) ● Distribute Events from Workplace Server to Slaves ● Slaves Flush all Caches on DB-Change Events ● Static Export On-Demand ● Rebuild Search Indexes Regularly or on Startup Drawbacks ● No Workplace if Master fails ● No shared Cache between Nodes
Solution 2 (with Code Changes in Core)
● Flex-Cache: no Solution -> Throw it away or use Solution 1 ● Core-Cache: Make all cached Objects serializable and use distributed
Cache ● Static Export: no Problem with On-Demand ● Events: Distribute Events to all Cluster Nodes. Publish-Event: flush Flex
Cache, don't flush Core Cache ● Comparison: Use equals or compare Primitives ● Search Indexes: Rebuild regularly or on Startup or use external Solr Server
Advantages ● Data Grid to enlarge Heap Space
Fast Deployments ● GIT Repos that holds the
complete WebApp ● Developer checks in to
trunk / branch ● Branch for Test and Production ● Update on each node and restart
if necessary (Puppet or Chef)
How it works ● RFS Driver ● Mount RFS files and folders into
VFS ● Serve JSPs directly from RFS ● Reads all Module data as well ● NO import necessary!!!

DEMO Multi Workplace Support • Single Bare-Metal Cluster
o Bare-Metal Cloud • Eucalyptus Cluster
o Quick-Scale o Auto-Scale
• Get Unlimited with Amazon EC2 / AWS with Auto-Scaling • Run on ProfitBricks (The German IaaS Company)
o Apply awesome Vertical Scaling o Manual horizontal scaling with free load balancers o Half the Price o Twice the Speed (compared to Amazon)
About OpenCms Cloud eXtensions ● Developed by Stephan Hartmann, CEO Metamesh ● Provides Multi Workplace Support for OpenCms ● Provides a Cloud Ready Version of OpenCms ● Supports elasticity in OpenCms Clusters ● Supports building OpenCms based hybrid cloud solutions ● Empowers Clouds Sky’s OpenCms CloudSite offering ● Is going to engage and innovate the next generation of OpenCms
OCCX Multi Workplace Support
New York
Cologne
Tokyo
Mexico Singapour
● Multi- Workplace support for international companies ○ support low latency in different geographic regions for:
■ authoring and user productivity ■ high availability
● Comes with Zero Configuration ○ all instances have the same configuration ○ no master/slave design - all nodes are equal ○ fault tolerance - removing one node won't hurt others ○ every node can serve the OpenCms Workplace at ANY Time, ANY Where
with sticky sessions

Deploy with ProfitBricks DCD
OCCX’s Status, Challenges left
➢ Runs on Clouds Sky’s OpenCms 8.5 CloudSite offering on ProfitBricks ➢ Use DevOps Tools such as Puppet / Chef for deployment ➢ Needs still some performance tuning ➢ Image Cache / Sync shall be improved ➢ Hybrid Solutions needs security and stability improvements ➢ Improve auto-discovery on EC2 ➢ Get Elastic Load Balancing and Auto-Scaling to work as it should ➢ Stress Testing still not performed ➢ Licensing issues in discussion ➢ Is ready for new pilots ➢ Upgrade OCCX for OpenCms 9.0 ➢ Implement 100% Availability
