Windows Azure Agent is needed for 12.10. |
[Background information]: Microsoft Windows Azure is a cloud Paas (Infrastructure as a Service) that allows offers a utility compute experience, similiar to Amazon's EC2. Ubuntu Cloud Images are officially supported by Canonical and Microsoft as a guest on Windows Azure.
[Availability]: This is a new package for cloud enablement. As such it is not currently available in Universe. In order for a package to be included on the official cloud images, it must be in Main, as Universe is disallowed by policy. Further, this package needs to be included on the Ubuntu Server CD Image.
[Rationale]: This package is required in order to run Ubuntu on Windows Azure Cloud IaaS. With out this package, it is impossiable to boot Ubuntu on Windows Azure. The package contains an agent which communicates with the Windows Azure Cloud fabric, reports the start up status, provisions the default user, adds security credentials, changes the host name, etc.
[Security]: Windows Azure was just released on 07 June 2012 and the general availability of this source code is new. As a result, there is no security history. However, this package does not setup an servers or listen for network connections. It is an agent that handles the bootstrapping of a machine, including adding users and setting up in-instance network connections. Any security issues with this package should be tangential to the security of Windows Azure PaaS.
/usr/sbin/waagent: this is the agent which handles the initial provisioning.
The agent is Linux agonostic, and runs on RHEL, Fedora, openSUSE, SUSE,
Debian and Ubuntu. The agent handles many of the package maintaner functions
like installing the init script.
[Quality assurance]: No obvious issues with the MIR requirements
[UI standard]: Not applicable
[Dependencies]: All dependencies are already in main.
[Standards compliance]: No issues identified
[Maintenance]: The package is relatively simple. In terms of maintance, the upstream is Microsoft Corp, and the source is freely open on GitHub. Microsoft and Canonical have an official relationship/partnership regarding the running of Ubuntu on Windows Azure, and as such, Canonical and/or Microsoft will maintain this code base as part of the official Ubuntu Cloud Images.
[Source Location]: The source is checked into:
