The development direction of automatic operation and dimension _ operation and maintenance automation

IT operations automation refers to the day-to-day, large amount of repetitive work automation in IT operations to automate the past manual execution. Automation is the sublimation of it operation, it is not simply a maintenance process automation, but also a process of management upgrade, it is the highest level of operation, but also the future trend of development.

With the progress of operation and maintenance technology and the improvement of operation and maintenance service system, automatic operation and maintenance is a dynamic direction, and it will usher in new challenges and changes with the change of scale and scene. Operation of the scope of activities more than hardware and operating systems, applications, and its infrastructure is also like the two legs of human, complementary, always one after the alternate forward. The infrastructure determines the direction of operation, and the same operational system makes the infrastructure play its maximum benefit. Therefore, the fundamental of automated operation and maintenance platform, not only the operation interface, so that people simply click on the interface button can manage the system, but in the underlying infrastructure and the upper level of the business system to build a good bridge, so that the business system can be full and stable without undue attention to the underlying architecture characteristics.

The goal of automation operation is no longer just to eliminate the fault, clean the equipment of the post service, but can be involved in the business development period, accompanied by the entire business run together a special service. The application itself can meet the reliable operation of the corresponding infrastructure, whether it is a unified operation-dimensional state interface, or disaster preparedness, automatic shrink expansion, and changes in the relationship adjustment, can be well addressed.

The development of virtualization and cloud computing has led to further changes in operation and maintenance services. Small and medium-sized companies do not have to consider such as disaster tolerance, on the backup side of the matter, the resource on-demand transaction not only makes the resources no longer waste, but also makes the expansion of business adjustment becomes easier and more cost-effective, and indeed greatly simplifies the traditional sense of operation and maintenance, is the future of small and medium internet companies to develop an important trend. At this time, the operation of the focus will be shifted to the platform architecture selection and optimization, operations need to pay more attention to business characteristics and related to the technical system, to help determine the various types of cloud service selection, evaluation of its applicability to the business.

     in the foreseeable future, the role of operation and Dimension will become more and more important, and the key to the improvement of this importance lies in the degree of involvement and location of the operation in the whole technology system. The rise of automated operation and maintenance, the traditional sense of service in the rear of the operators to bring the service forefront, in the past, simple tracing fault and safeguard service still occupy part of operation and maintenance, but with the development of automation operation and maintenance technology, the operators have more energy and condition, and put into the whole service structure of carding and designing, Even by providing basic components to participate in the research and development process, so that the product is inherently highly operational dimension. Research and development to pay attention to operational dimension, operation and maintenance to have the ability to intervene in research and development, with the role of peer coordination, each responsible for different areas of direction, this is the technical development of the system under the inevitable division of labor, but also to get rid of the hard work, continue to further technological development of
