Description

Resource access method, device and system
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a system for accessing resources.
Background
With the development of cloud computing technology, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) services have gradually matured in business models and technologies. In IaaS services, a cloud service provider provides virtual infrastructure services, such as computing resources, storage resources, and network resources, for a user. Through the cloud service, a user can obtain cloud resources which can be freely stretched, the resource amount of the cloud resources is almost unlimited, and the user can pay according to the usage amount after the resources are used.
A Cloud Infrastructure Management Interface (CIMI) Interface defined by a Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) is an open standard Application Programming Interface (API) for managing Cloud Infrastructure. The goal of CIMI is to help users manage the cloud infrastructure in a versatile, simple way, enabling interoperable cloud infrastructure management between cloud service providers and consumers and developers through standardized interaction of the cloud environment. CIMI version 1.1 has been accepted by the International Organization for standardization (ISO) and is becoming an International standard.
Fig. 1 is a network architecture of a cloud service provider of a CIMI model in the related art. Wherein, the 101 cloud service consumer interacts with the 102 cloud service provider A and the 103 cloud service provider B through the CIMI interface to manage and indicate the cloud service by the consumer. The 102 cloud service provider a may include a cloud manager responsible for managing and allocating various resources, and interact with the 101 cloud service consumer through the CIMI interface to obtain the consumer demand and return a corresponding result, where the cloud manager may manage various resources of the service provider, including a cloud entry point, resource metadata, system resources, machine resources, storage volume resources, network resources, certificate resources, task resources, monitoring resources, and the like. The cloud service provider B103 may also include a cloud manager that is responsible for managing and allocating various resources, and interacts with the cloud service consumer 101 through the CIMI interface to obtain consumer requirements and return corresponding results, where the cloud manager may manage various resources of the service provider, including a cloud entry point, resource metadata, system resources, machine resources, storage volume resources, network resources, certificate resources, task resources, monitoring resources, and the like.
Fig. 2 is a cloud entry point of a single cloud in the CIMI model in the related art. The cloud entry point represents an entry endpoint of the cloud defined by the CIMI model, through which the cloud service consumer can discover and access various available resources in the cloud. 201 the cloud entry point implements a resource directory set, specifically including one of: 202 generic attributes, 203 basic uniform resource identifiers, 204 resource metadata sets, 205 system class resources, 206 machine class resources, 207 certificate class resources, 208 storage volume class resources, 209 network class resources, 210 task resource sets, 211 monitoring class resources, and the like. 202 the generic attribute comprises one of: identifier, name, description, creation time, update time, list of properties, etc.; 205 the system class resource comprises one of: a system resource set, a system template resource set, etc.; 206 the machine class resource comprises one of: a machine resource set, a machine template resource set, a machine configuration resource set, a machine mirror image resource set and the like; 207 certificate class resources include one of: a certificate resource set, a certificate template resource set, etc.; 208 the storage volume type resource includes one of: a storage volume resource set, a storage volume template resource set, a storage volume configuration resource set, a storage volume mirror image resource set and the like; 209 the network class resource comprises one of: a network resource set, a network template resource set, a network segment template resource set, a network endpoint template resource set, a network interface template resource set, a network service template resource set, etc.; 211 monitoring class resources include one of: a metering resource collection, a metering template resource collection, a metering configuration resource collection, an event log template resource collection, and the like. A set is a group of identical resources.
However, at present, the CIMI interface only supports management of infrastructure of a single cloud, and a cloud service consumer cannot access other cloud service providers through a certain cloud service provider under the cloud interworking (intercoud) condition, so that cross-cloud or multi-cloud or hybrid cloud management cannot be realized, and flexibility is lacked. In addition, other special cloud intercommunication interfaces, such as the VMWare VCloud Air interface, can only manage the mixed cloud in the VMWare isomorphic environment, and cannot realize the mixed cloud management in the heterogeneous environment; while Cisco's Interclosed Fabric Director API mainly provides some simple query operations, and cannot implement complicated various resource management.
Aiming at the problem that the access to other cloud service providers through a certain cloud service provider cannot be realized in the related technology, an effective solution is not provided at present.
