Cloud controller's task is to start,terminate instances in the configured
IAASs and managing the topology of the system.
Autoscaler - AS takes the decision when and where to spawn and terminate
instances. It decides to start a instances when new subscription comes and
system load increases and terminate instances when users unsubscribe and
system load goes down etc.
Cartridge agent - this is the agent software that runs inside the instances
which establish the communication between instances and the Stratos.
Load balancer- basically does the load balancing of the services of the
users.
Stratos manager provides the UI for users/Dev ops to interact with the
system. Creating and deploying cartridges, subscribe for cartridges,
deploying policies are some of the facilities available from SM.
CLI - as SM, CLI help users to interact with the system by a command line
utility.
@Chris
These are the description that comes to my mind, just add yours.
Touched, not typed. Erroneous words are a feature, not a typo.
