AbstractVirtualization technology has the ability to build virtual server machine inside a physical server machine. However virtualization technology is not able to provide a flexible infrastructure services function in terms of the provision of infrastructure services in accordance with the needs of the client, especially for the provision of operating systems. This is the main reason research on Openstack which is one of cloud computing platform that provides Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) which is the service that is able to provide storage, memory, processor,network and operating system into virtual. Openstack has feature image service (Glance) which is able to provide the image of an operating system which is on this research analyzed its ability to provide cloud computing environment that has a diversity of operating systems. The result of this research proves that Openstack is able to provide a cloud computing environment with a diverse operating system.
Keywords: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Cloud Computing, Openstack, Image Service (Glance).
Abstrak
Teknologi virtualisasi mampu membangun mesin server virtual di dalam sebuah mesin server fisik. Namun teknologi virtualisasi saja masih belum dapat menyediakan fungsi layanan infrastruktur yang fleksibel dalam hal penyediaan layanan infrastruktur yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan client terutama untuk hal penyediaan sistem operasi. Inilah yang melatarbelakangi dilakukannya penelitian pada Openstackyang merupakan salah satu platformdaricloud computing yang menyediakan layanan Infrastructure as a Service(IaaS)dimana layanan ini mampu meyediakanstorage,memory,processor,network dan sistem operasi secara virtual. Openstack memiliki fitur image service(Glance) yang mampu menyediakanimagedari sebuah sistem operasi yang pada penelitian ini dianalisa kemampuannya untuk menyediakan lingkungan cloud computing yang memiliki keanekaragaman sistem operasi. Hasil dari penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa Openstack mampu menyediakan lingkungan cloud computingyang memiliki keanekaragaman sistem operasi.
