Bilateral Contracts with Industry

Participants : Adrien Lebre [Contact point] , Ronan-Alexandre Cherrueau, Marie Delavergne, Alexandre Van Kempen.

During 2017, we agreed with Orange Labs (Lannion) to conduct a dedicated study on the evaluation of AMQP message bus alternatives within the OpenStack ecosystem. This bilateral contract (“Contrat de Recherche Externalisé”) officially started in Sept 2017 for one year. With the allocated budget ( 100K), we hired a new research engineer, Alexandre Van Kempen. Alexandre Van Kempen works with Ronan-Alexandre Cherrueau (Temporary Resarch Engineer, hired in the context of the MERCURY InriHub) and Matthieu Simonin (Permanent Research Engineer from the Rennes Bretagne Atlantique Center) on conducting this analysis. In addition to extending the EnOS framework previously presented, they are performing several experiments with the support of the OpenStack open-source community (in particulat RedHat). The goal of the study is to identify major drawbacks of the default RabbitMQ solution with respect to the Fog/Edge requirements and evaluate whether some alternatives are available in the open-source ecosytem.
