Too early morning: application delivery How to solve the cloud computing security and application of the two major problems?

In recent years, more and more enterprises have opened the cloud computing application model. However, although cloud computing has many performance advantages, the security of the public cloud, the response speed and availability of cloud business are still the main factors restricting the overall popularity of cloud computing. Especially for the latter, that is, the delivery of cloud applications, is the number of application delivery vendors are eager to meet the enterprise's efficient demand through continuous innovation.

Industry insiders say the advanced application delivery system can offload network-related functionality from the server, increasing the efficiency of the data center by 20% to 50%. At the same time, the application delivers integrated dynamic caching, compression, prefetching, and other related web acceleration technologies to help end users achieve more than 50% performance improvements. But there is still a barrier to be overcome between idealized anticipation and practical application.

According to the domestic emerging application delivery enterprise too one star morning research and development director Feng Xiaojie said, due to the multiple changes in technology and architecture brought about by cloud computing, these changes also pose a challenge to application delivery, which requires that each application delivery vendor must address the problem of application delivery within and outside the data center in the overall architecture.

So how to implement it? Feng Xiaojie a deep interpretation of this.

3 major problems in application delivery in cloud computing era

Feng Xiaojie said that in the era of cloud computing, application delivery faced the following three major issues:

1. Virtualization

Virtualization is the core of cloud computing and the key to increasing the efficiency of IT resources in data centers. In a virtualized environment, application delivery of the traditional "one-to-one" application model has become acclimatized. In the era of cloud computing, the allocation of resources in virtual environment will change with the change of business, and the application delivery must be in a new application mode. In addition, virtualized server performance will decline, supporting the cloud business in the software environment, the performance of a single virtual server will be limited.

2. Deployment in High-bandwidth environments

In the cloud computing architecture, the data traffic generated by user access not only flows in north and south, but also flows within the cloud data center, where there is a delivery relationship-different components are responsible for different applications, and there is a business connection between these applications. At the same time, massive traffic needs huge network bandwidth support. Today, 100G Ethernet is commercially available, and complex multilink deployments in the past have been simplified to single link deployments, simplifying the overall network environment of the data center. Therefore, deployment in high-bandwidth environments is the second problem facing application delivery.

3. SDN-oriented technical renovation

The

NVF and SDN are the new network infrastructures for the data center. The SDN controller based on centralized control provides the ability of network provisioning, in fact, it is to transform the traditional equipment based application into a real network-wide application. This revolutionary change has great potential in optimizing application delivery, while the application of SDN also promotes the migration of traditional network application delivery technology to SDN network.
