Basic Project Services Example

A user/developer wishes to deploy a number of basic project services for a new project to experiment with before adopting any particular option.

• User creates a new project and names it "New Project Deployment"
• User drags apache web server to host project web site
• User drags gitlab to host project source code
• User drags owncloud to provide sharable storage for the teams data
• User drags mediawiki to serve as the teams wiki
• User drags mysql as the database backend for MediaWiki
• User drags a connection between mysql and mediawiki

• User clicks "Commit" button to deploy the project on NDS Labs cloud resources
• A status page is returned providing a list of the instantiated services, virtual machines, their status, details, and URL's to the stood up services (e.g. Web Server, OwnCloud, MediaWiki, and GitLab)
• User can now go to/share service URL's and use/experiment with each service

Kick-the-Tires Scenarios
