I finished in 2004 a BSc degree in Mathematics lectured at UTAD – Portugal,
and in 2009 a Integrated MSc degree in Informatics and Computer Engineering
lectured at FEUP – Portugal. Currently I'm working at CERN in the IT-PES
group in two different virtualization projects that covers the two big use
cases which have been identified at CERN:
the service
consolidation project and the batch virtualization project.
The first project aims to achieve the traditional benefits of service
consolidation like: decoupling hardware and system image lifetime, reduce
the power requirements, maintenance advantages, etc. With the batch
virtualization project the main objectives
are: dynamic change of worker node types dependent on requirements;
customization of images for specific use cases, possibility to mix virtual
and real resources, etc.
We were able to run more than 15000 VMs managed by OpenNebula in ~500
hypervisors, to evaluate the LSF scalability. Also, I am involved in the
evaluation of the Infrastructure Sharing Facility (ISF) tool by Platform
Computing and participate in the HEPIX working group, particularly in the
image distribution schema. I'm familiar with various virtualization and
cloud technologies.
