Hi everybody,
at XWiki we are participating in different research activities, many
of them focused on cloud computing.
As a part of this research efforts we've build this project that
allows you to deploy XWiki in different cloud environments.
In the current state, it allows to build an XWiki distribution that
can be deployed on Amazon Beanstalk
(
http://aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/) and can also take advantage
of the Amazon S3 Blobstore (
http://aws.amazon.com/s3/) for storing
attachments.
The project is extensible, so other environments could be supported
(e.g., Openstack SWIFT blobstore,
http://swift.openstack.org/) and
also deployment that are dynamically configured when started in
virtual machines that are started up in other platforms.
If you want to have a look you can find it here:
https://github.com/fmancinelli/xwiki-platform-cloud
For the moment I've put it on my personal GitHub account but I'll move
it to XWiki contrib as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Fabio
P.S.: If you want to experiment with it, Amazon provides a free usage
tier (
