"It's often a challenge to test the scalability of system software components before a large deployment, particularly if you need low level hardware access", said Dan Stanzione, Executive Director at TACC and a Co-PI on the Chameleon project. "Chameleon was designed for just these sort of cases - when your local test hardware is inadequate, and you are testing something that would be difficult to test in the commercial cloud - like replacing the available file system. Projects like Slash2 can use Chameleon to make tomorrow's cloud systems better than today's."
