16 major functions of cloud computing operation and maintenance

Cloud computing business model is to achieve it as a service, whether external or within the enterprise, IT service needs more and more obvious. On the other hand, the large scale data center urgently needs an effective calendar way to reduce the operating cost.

In the cloud computing technology architecture, operation and maintenance Management provides the whole lifecycle management of IaaS layer, PAAs layer and SaaS layer resource, realizes the unified management of physical resources and virtual resources, and provides the integrated management ability of resources management, statistics, monitoring and dispatching, service control and so on. The different performance of Yun YUNWI management and current traditional it operation and management is as follows: centralization and pooling of resources.

Yun YUNWI Management needs to automate and process as much as possible to avoid the uncertainty associated with the management and operation of dimension due to human operations. At the same time, cloud operation and maintenance management needs to provide personalized attempts for different users to help manage and maintain people to view, locate and solve problems.

Yun YUNWI Management and operation personnel are oriented to all cloud resources, to complete the allocation of different resources, scheduling and monitoring. At the same time, it should be able to show users the relationship between virtual resources and physical resources and topology structure. The goal of Yun YUNWI management is to adapt to the above changes and improve the operation and maintenance of cloud resources.

Cloud computing operation Management should provide the following functions:

First, from the service portal. Self-service portals will support infrastructure resources, platform resources and application resources interact with the user in the way of service, provide the service functions of infrastructure resources, platform resources and application resource services, Resource usage statistics and so on, need to provide different display functions according to different users, and effectively isolate multi-user data.

Second, identity and access management. Identity and access management provides identity access management, only authorized users can access the corresponding functions and data, the use of resource Services application.

Third, service directory management. Establish a logical view of infrastructure resources, platform resources and application resources to form cloud computing and service catalogs for service consumers and managers to query. Service directory should define the type of service, basic information, ability data, quotas and permissions, provide service information registration, configuration, release, cancellation, change, query and other management functions.

Four, service rule management. Service rule management defines the scheduling and running sequence logic of resources.

The management of resource dispatch. Resource scheduling management through the query service directory, to determine the current state of resources, and to implement automatic workflow to allocate and deploy resources, in accordance with the established applicable rules, to achieve real-time response service requests, according to user needs to achieve the automatic generation of resources, distribution, recovery and migration, to support the user's flexible demand for resources.

VI. resource monitoring and management. Resource monitoring and control management real-time monitoring, capture the deployment status of resources, use and operational indicators, all kinds of alarm information.

VII, Service compliance audit. The Service compliance audit regulates and controls the compliance of resource services, and carries out audit on the use of resources by the authority and quota.

Service operation monitoring. Service operation monitoring will collect all kinds of monitoring data to the service monitoring and Operation engine, and make the change request by tradeoff between service strategy and work request, and some standard change requirements should not be transferred to resource supply management for further processing.

Ninth, the service measurement management. The service measurement management carries out the service quality audit according to the actual use of the resources, and stipulates the service measurement information, so as to make the accounting between the service user and the service provider.

Tenth, service quality management. Service Quality management comply with SLA requirements, in accordance with the actual use of resources to carry out the audit and management of services, if the quality of service does not meet the prior agreed SLA requirements, automated dynamic provisioning, or the allocation of resources proposed by managers to the deployment of data to meet SLA requirements.

11th, service delivery management. Service delivery management includes delivery request management, service template management, delivery implementation management, full process management of service delivery requests, and automated implementation of the overall delivery process.

12th, report management. Report management provides support for the various run-time and periodic statistical reports of cloud operations management.

13th, System Management. System Management of cloud computing operation and maintenance management of its own management, including account management, parameter management, authority management, policy management.

14th, 4 a management. 4 A management is supported by Cloud Management's own 4A management requirements.

15th, management integration. Management integration is responsible for interfacing with the IaaS layer, the PAAs layer, the SaaS layer, and providing support for service delivery and monitoring.

16th, manage the portal. Management portal for management and maintenance personnel, the service, the various management functions of resources constitute a unified platform to achieve the management and maintenance personnel configuration, monitoring, statistics and other functional needs.

The ultimate goal of cloud management is to achieve the service provisioning of IT capabilities and to implement the various features of cloud computing: resource sharing, automation, Pay-per-use, self-service, scalable, and so on.
