Open Stack

thanks for replying Joshua,


VM migration is the process used to migrate vm from one physical server to
another physical server due to many reasons like system maintenance,
hardware failure ,

VM is important element in cloud as well, so we do same in the cloud.
xen/kvm hypervisor used in the openstack dont provide security  in this
process. i studied few paper on it  which are related to VM migration in DC
instead of Cloud.   i also seen book on openstack security in which it is
describe that xen/kvm could not provide security but libvirt can be used
with xen/kvm to secure this process.

Currently libvirt is providing ssl for confidentiality of data between
source and destination. and SASL for authentication. i want to add other
authentication mechanism in it and in the end it would be added in the
Dashboard of openstack so that administrator use it easily, Access control
is also part of this thesis..


may you got my idea Mr. Joshua Harlow and now please comment on it. is it
good or not? your comment will help me to choose good topic in cloud
security,


Regards
