Project description

Innovative tools for software-defined infrastructures

Computer application developers and infrastructure operators are always searching for new tools to improve their performance. The EU-funded SODALITE project will supply tools for developers and infrastructure operators that abstract their applications and infrastructure requirements to facilitate simpler and faster development and operation and execution of diverse applications over diverse software-defined, high-performance cloud infrastructures. It will generate a model-based abstraction library and develop a design and programming model for full-stack application and infrastructure descriptions. It will also establish a deployment framework, enabling static optimisation of the so-abstracted applications onto specific infrastructures, and automated run-time optimisation and management of applications. SODALITE will support the digital transformation of the European industry by enhancing the design and effectiveness of software-defined infrastructures and simplicity of modelling applications.

Objective

SODALITE will provide application developers and infrastructure operators with tools that (a) abstract their application and infrastructure requirements to (b) enable simpler and faster development, deployment, operation, and execution of heterogeneous applications reflecting diverse circumstances over (c) heterogeneous, software-defined, high-performance, cloud infrastructures, with a particular focus on performance, quality, manageability, and reliability. In doing so, it will produce several tangible results, (1) pattern-based abstraction library, including application, infrastructure and an absolute novum, performance abstractions, (2) design and programming model for full-stack application and infrastructure descriptions, using abstraction library; (3) deployment framework, enabling static optimisation of the so-abstracted applications onto specific infrastructures (4) automated run-time optimisation and management of so-deployed applications. This toolset will directly support Digital Transformation of European Industry through (1) increasing design and runtime effectiveness of software-defined infrastructures, to ensure high-performance execution over dynamic heterogeneous execution environments; (2) increasing simplicity of modelling applications and infrastructures, to improve manageability, collaboration, and time to market.
