Demo
----

Resources to use to setup and use environments containing Aeolus.

The following is suggested for a robust demonstration of Aeolus
capabilities:

-   2 workstations - one to serve as one or more ‘external’ cloud
    providers and one to serve as the Aeolus server controlling this.
-   ‘’’Highly suggested’’’ to not rely on external cloud resources (such
    as EC2 or other), networks at conferences are almost always
    unreliable, and many operations (eg uploading images) take time
-   One workstation could be used, though it is conceptually nice to
    show Aeolus in one location controlling external cloud resources
-   Cloud provider workstation: (reqs will vary depending on the
    providers), a minimum of 3GB of memory 250GB of disk space and
    hardware virtualization is required
-   The Aeolus workstation: hardware virtualization is required
-   Fresh Fedora 17 install, Aeolus is available to existing systems, of
    various OS and Distro types, but to ensure you don’t lose any local
    data and that the config experience goes as smooth as possible an
    unused F17 system is desirable

### Cloud Providers

[[Setting up Openstack]]\
[[Setting up oVirt]]\
[[Setting up vSphere]] \# coming soon

### Aeolus

[[Aeolus Demo Setup]]\
[[Aeolus Demo Commands]]

### Choice

It is good to begin and end the demo by cycling back around to the
problem at hand at the solution Aeolus provides. Discussing vendor
lockin, proprietary and custom apis, and price hikes, and how Aeolus can
be used to mitigate all that (as just demonstrated).
