Canonical’s [Charm Partner Programme](http://partners.ubuntu.com/programmes/charm) helps solution providers make best use of Canonical’s universal service modeling tool, [Juju](http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/tools/juju). Juju makes it easy to deliver complete solutions in minutes, on virtually any public or private cloud through the use of Charms. The [Juju Charm Store](https://jujucharms.com/) has over 300 cloud based applications ready to be deployed, scaled and managed on most public and private clouds, as well as bare metal. Vedams is the lead developer of Tulsi, a open source tool used to monitor the health of a Swift cluster. Tulsi checks the status of drives and services on a Swift cluster and provides a graphical view of individual node status in the cluster, including an overall view of the health of the cluster. “Vedams is excited to join Canonical’s Charm Partner Program and develop a Juju charm for Tulsi providing users an easy way to deploy swift monitoring on their swift cluster,” said Vedams’ Raj Panchapakesan, Senior Director of Worldwide Strategy & Business Development. “Canonical is looking forward to adding Tulsi to the Juju charm store. This tool is a wonderful complement to Canonical’s Ubuntu Advantage Swift storage offering,” said Ron Bassett, Canonical’s Director of Cloud Alliances and Partnerships.
