Detailed ways

In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined arbitrarily with each other.

The steps shown in the flowcharts of the figures may be performed in a computer system, such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Also, although a logical order is shown in the flowcharts, in some cases the steps shown or described may be performed in an order different from that shown or described herein.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for allocating cloud resources in an embodiment of the present invention. According to the flow chart, the method for allocating cloud resources in this embodiment includes:

Step 100: After receiving the application for the cloud resource, determine the resource type to which the cloud resource belongs;

In this embodiment, after the application for cloud resources is received, the resource type to which the applied cloud resources belong is determined.

Optionally, before receiving an application for cloud resources, multiple resource types are pre-defined, that is, the resource types to which different cloud resources belong can be pre-defined, for example, a virtual machine is defined as VM, and a network is defined as NET.

Optionally, save the above-mentioned pre-defined resource types in the database of the cloud platform.

Optionally, classification rules are set according to the importance of resource types and other related factors, and multiple predefined resource types are divided into different categories according to the classification rules; for example: hosts, cloud hard disks, etc. are divided into the first category; Cloud physical machines, shared disks, etc. are classified into the second category. And according to different categories, establish an allocation process corresponding to each category. After the allocation process is established, map the resource type of each category with the allocation process; for example: match the resource type of the first category with the first allocation process Mapping, mapping the resource type of the second category with the second allocation process.

Optionally, after the allocation process corresponding to each category is established, a mapping relationship table between the resource type and the allocation process is established.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, in the mapping relationship table, the resource type and the allocation process are in a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping relationship, specifically including: a category may include a One resource type or multiple resource types, when mapping the category and the allocation process, the category and the allocation process can be in a one-to-one relationship; the resource type and the allocation process can be in a one-to-one or many-to-one relationship; Wherein, among different allocation processes, at least the approval steps are different.

Step 101: When the determined resource type is a newly added resource type, map the determined resource type with one of multiple established allocation processes.

In this embodiment, the determined resource type is first judged, and if it is a newly added resource type, the determined resource type is mapped to one of the multiple established allocation processes.

In some optional implementation manners of this embodiment, mapping the determined resource type with one of multiple established allocation processes may include: judging the category to which the determined resource type belongs according to the predetermined rule ; Among the multiple established allocation processes, determine the corresponding allocation process according to the category; map the determined resource type with the determined allocation process. For example: if the newly added resource type is A, judge the newly added resource type A according to the preset classification rules, if the resource type A belongs to the first category, then associate the newly added resource type A with the first category The mapping first allocation process establishes the mapping relationship. If the resource type A is judged according to the preset classification rules and does not belong to any category that has been classified, then a new category needs to be re-established, and the allocation process of the new category needs to be established, and the instruction for establishing the allocation process will be executed. After the allocation process, assuming that the new allocation process is the third allocation process, the newly added resource type A is mapped to the third allocation process.

Step 102: Execute the determined allocation process of resource type mapping, so as to allocate the cloud resources.

In this implementation, the determined resource type mapping allocation process is executed to allocate the cloud resources; wherein, the resource type and the allocation process may be in a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping relationship. For example, if the determined resource type is A, the corresponding allocation process is the first allocation process; the allocation process of the first allocation process is executed, and the cloud resources are allocated after the allocation process is completed.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the execution of the determined resource type mapping allocation process includes: after approving the application for the cloud resource, calling the resource management interface and related parameters of the determined resource type ; sending the related parameters to the resource management module through the resource management interface, so as to manage and create the requested cloud resources.

After receiving the application for the cloud resource, determine the resource type to which the cloud resource belongs;

When the determined resource type is a newly added resource type, mapping the determined resource type with one of multiple established allocation processes;

Execute the determined resource type mapping allocation process to allocate the cloud resources.

Optionally, the processor reads and executes the program for allocating cloud resources, and further performs the following operations: before receiving the application for cloud resources, pre-defines multiple types of resources; The multiple predefined resource types mentioned above are divided into different categories; for different categories, an allocation process corresponding to each category is established.

Optionally, the resource type and the allocation process are in a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping relationship.

Optionally, the execution of the determined allocation process of resource type mapping includes: after approving the application for cloud resources, calling the resource management interface and related parameters of the determined resource type; The relevant parameters are sent to the resource management module for managing and creating the applied cloud resources.

The implementation process of a specific example of this embodiment is as follows:

Step 1. Predefine the resource type, for example, a virtual machine is defined as VM, and a network is defined as NET.

Step 2. Save the predefined resource type to the background database, see Figure 3.

Step 3. Establish the mapping relationship between resource types and allocation processes in advance, see Figure 4 and Figure 5.

Step 4. After the application for cloud resources is approved, call the resource management interface and the relevant parameters of the determined resource type; send the relevant parameters to the resource management module through the resource management interface to be used for the application. Cloud resources are managed and created.

Step 5. If you add a new resource type that needs to be allocated for cloud resources, you only need to repeat the operations of the previous 4 steps, so that there is no need to change the original business logic of the allocation process.

In step 3 of the above example, the flow chart of the mapping relationship between the resource type and the allocation process is established in advance, as shown in Figure 5:

Create a new allocation process;

After the allocation process is established, the resource type is read from the database;

Mapping the resource type with the allocation process according to preset rules;

Save the mapping relationship between processes and resource types.

In step 4 of the above example, the flow chart of resource management is shown in Figure 6: after the application for cloud resources is approved, the resource management interface and related parameters of the determined resource type are invoked; through the resource management interface, the The relevant parameters are sent to the resource management module for managing and creating the applied cloud resources. In this way, in the resource management process after the final approval (for example, the process of automatically creating a virtual machine after the approval is successful), the associated interface and parameters of the resource type can be directly taken out from the database (for example, the interface and parameters for creating a virtual machine are taken out) parameters) and execute.

Another specific example of the cloud resource allocation method in this application: 1) define the resource type, and establish the mapping relationship between the resource type and the allocation process; 2) the resource management interface configuration module, through which the resource application can be approved and approved Finally, by calling the relevant interface of the resource management system, the code intrusion into the business process approval system is avoided.
