What is a cloud management platform, and what is the difference between a cloud platform management

The definition of cloud management platform first comes from Gartner, an international authoritative research organization, "Cloud management platform (CMP) is a product that provides unified integrated management of public cloud, private cloud and hybrid cloud." The main capabilities of CMP include self-service, providing system images, metering and billing, and optimizing workloads with established policies. More advanced products can also integrate with external enterprise management systems, including service catalogs, support the configuration of storage and network resources, allow enhanced resource management through service governance, and provide advanced monitoring to improve performance and availability.

From this definition, it can be seen that the cloud management platform needs to have multi-cloud management, self-service, metering and billing, resource elasticity and service orchestration, can automatically deploy and configure relevant resources, and can integrate with the existing IT management system of the enterprise.

From the perspective of public cloud, private cloud and hybrid cloud, the cloud management platform is on top of it, and manages multi-cloud unified management, multi-data center unified management, and hybrid orchestration of heterogeneous resources.

It should be the management of cloud business, for the company's system, as far as I know, zkeys is to do this, you can manage various cloud resources and cloud products, realize intelligent management, and you can also obtain cloud resources through the platform, enrich business and open up sales channels.

To manage cloud resources and products, the zkeys public cloud management platform can not only manage various cloud resources and cloud products to achieve intelligent management, but also obtain cloud resources through the platform, enrich business and open up sales channels.

ZKys platform has the advantages of technical system + resource pool, you can produce cloud products by yourself, you can also access cloud product resources through APIs, and through this system, you can also integrate with other IDC partners to get more channels and resources.

Just like the zkeys cloud management platform, it provides a complete platform to manage various resources including computing, network, and storage. The system integrates a complete financial system, work order system, filing system, membership system, business system, production system and other sectors to form systematic management and platform operation.

The cloud management platform is convenient for small and medium-sized IDC enterprises to manage their own cloud products efficiently and quickly, and at the same time, they can use the management platform to obtain more cloud resources for free, for example, similar to a cloud management platform like zkeys.

It refers to services based on hardware resources and software resources to provide computing, networking, and storage capabilities.

It can be divided into three categories: storage-based cloud platforms based on data storage, computing-based cloud platforms based on data processing, and comprehensive cloud computing platforms that take into account both computing and data storage and processing.

First of all, how to implement cross-platform and cross-service provider in cloud services, that is, service providers need to make trade-offs in development features and compatibility. Early cloud computing provided APIs that were much more restrictive than traditional service systems such as databases. The lack of commonality between various service providers puts a lot of programming burden on cross-platform developers.

Secondly, how to manage various cloud service platforms is also a challenge for service providers. Compared with traditional systems, large cloud platforms are affected by three factors: limited human intervention, large workload variation, and a variety of shared devices, and each cloud platform company has its own management scheme: for example, Amazon's EC2 uses virtual machines at the hardware level as programming interfaces, while companies implement "multi-tenant" virtual machines with multiple independent modes on a database system.

Of course, there are other solutions that are also possible.

In addition, the security and privacy protection of cloud platforms are particularly difficult to protect. Security can no longer be secured by the physical boundaries of a computer or network. In the past, many encryption and decryption algorithms for data protection were particularly expensive, and how to adopt some appropriate security strategies for large-scale data is a very big challenge.

The challenges of cloud services also include the stability and reliability of services.

Finally, as cloud computing becomes more popular, it is expected that new use cases will emerge and bring new challenges. For example, people need to extract useful information from structured, semi-structured, or unstructured heterogeneous data. At the same time, it also indicates that "cloud" integration services are inevitable.

A federated cloud architecture doesn't make it any less difficult, it just adds to the problem. To sum up, it can be seen that cloud computing and cloud platform services themselves do have huge advantages in appropriate scenarios, but at the same time, they face many technical problems that need to be solved urgently.

A cloud platform that provides "cloud-based" services for developers to use when creating applications. The emergence of various cloud platforms is one of the most important aspects of this transformation. As the name suggests, this platform allows developers to either run their written programs in the "cloud", use the services provided in the "cloud", or both.

A cloud platform provides cloud-based services for application development, rather than building its own client infrastructure. For example, the developer of a new software-as-a-application service conducts research and development on the cloud platform, and the direct user of the cloud platform is the developer rather than the ordinary user, which provides a stable development environment for the developer.

The type of cloud service platform

1. UAP platform, Yonyou NC adopts J2EE architecture, is committed to building an advanced and open cloud computing application platform for group enterprises, and provides IT solutions integrating modeling, development, integration, operation and management for group enterprises.

2. Elastic virtual computing: According to the changing organizational structure, management and control mode and business needs of enterprises, it quickly provides dynamic, flexible, elastic, virtual, shared and efficient computing resource services for enterprise cloud application services.

3. Intelligent monitoring and operation and maintenance, realize 7*24 hours of all-time zone, multi-regional, all-round, three-dimensional and intelligent IT operation and maintenance monitoring of computing resources, storage resources, network resources, and cloud application services, and ensure the safe, stable and reliable operation of IT systems.

The main difference is the use, the general management system is convenient for enterprises to manage enterprise information, rules and regulations and employee management, and the cloud platform management system is mainly for the management of cloud business.

Cloud Management Platform (CMP) is an integrated product for managing public, private and hybrid cloud environments, providing enterprises with cloud computing products and services to manage multiple cloud infrastructures.

Cloud management software is highly scalable, and can add and remove hypervisors, data storage, and other resources such as CPU and memory from the cloud system at will to meet the needs of users.

Virtual machines are completely isolated from each other, and each of them accesses its own disk. There is an anti-spoofing firewall on the server where the virtual machine is stored. Different roles can be set in the control panel, and each role can be set with different levels of access.

Why do enterprises go to the cloud? This is where the advantages of enterprise cloud migration lie.

1. The cost of cloud servers is relatively low.

Compared with traditional servers, which need to be purchased and rented, cloud servers are charged as you go to reduce purchase costs. The capacity can be flexibly expanded according to your needs, so you don't need to estimate how much you need upfront.

Moreover, the cloud owner can reduce the operation and maintenance cost of hardware maintenance and greatly reduce the labor cost.

2. The performance of cloud servers is superior to that of traditional servers.

The cloud server realizes hardware isolation and broadband exclusivity, which is not limited by geography and traffic, and can continue to communicate with each other without affecting the effect due to interruption.

3. The cloud server has more powerful management capabilities. The cloud server can realize remote synchronous management, sharing, and backup of various services. Traditional servers need to be in a certain network area, which may be affected by the network and cause data loss.

4. Cloud servers are more secure than traditional servers.

In order to ensure the reliability of the cloud platform, the cloud service platform company will definitely invest a lot of effort to have a reliable security system, and platform users do not have to worry about the stability and security of the platform.

For small and medium-sized enterprises, public cloud is a good choice, cloud computing service providers provide halo computing platforms, small and medium-sized enterprises do not need to build their own data centers, do not need to care about virtualization, grid and other technical difficulties, as long as you choose a trustworthy cloud computing service provider.

The current industry is facing problems:

1) If the share-storage mode is adopted, the disk IO and network IO will be high, and the operator will face the use of expensive disk arrays and high-performance, high-throughput network interaction equipment.

2) If the stand-alone storage mode is adopted, the backup and disaster recovery will face great difficulties due to the large file size of a single virtual machine.

3) If you use a distributed file system, e.g. gfs, gfs2, gluster, lustre, etc., then the performance will be even worse.

At the same time, it also brings various management costs, such as data balancing and other issues.

Data Protection (CDP) solves all of the above:

1) IO speed is close to the speed of a physical disk.
