Description

A kind of method of leasing example based on cloud computing
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of example of using based on cloud computing, particularly a kind of method of leasing example based on cloud computing.
Background technology
Cloud computing (Cloud Computing) is a kind of emerging business model, and it is distributed in calculation task on the resource pool of a large amount of computing machines formations, makes various application can obtain computational resource, storage resources, Internet resources and various software service as required.Cloud computing technology in recent years is ripe gradually, attracts people more and more to pay close attention to.The EC2 of Amazon, projects such as the Windows Azure of the AppEng of Google and Microsoft all are devoted to the research and development of cloud computing middleware and the popularization of cloud computing technology.
Up to now, most research all concentrates on load balance, monitoring resource and Yunan County's congruence classical problem in the cloud computing field, and the work aspect charging is then less relatively.The value of billing model mainly is embodied in the benefit of system at economic aspect, and it is the important content that any business prototype is all paid special attention to.Briefly, it is on the basis of monitoring resource, according to the resource service recorder, utilizes the rational charge mode of a cover to calculate the amount of money that the user deals with.Cloud computing successfully be promoted in commerce, the rational charge mode of a cover is indispensable, comes on its referred gradually schedule.
About the charging under the cloud computing applied environment, the scheme of comparative maturity is still wrapped year, monthly payment and charge by the hour at present.With Amazon EC2 business model is example, and it mainly contains following three kinds of patterns: as required example, keep example and field case.
(1) example as required
Example is that a kind of user of allowing is the example that its computational resource is paid by the hour as required.This makes the user to break away from from the complex process of planning, buy, safeguard hardware, uses cost seldom to obtain required computational resource.It is to start to example since an example to stop finishing that expense is calculated.During charging,, will calculate by one hour when example moved less than in the time of one hour.
(2) keep example
To the reservation example of user applies 1 year or 3 years, at first disposablely collect a lower expense.Afterwards, this example this section in the period for the user all, when example move, still charge by the hour, but the above-mentioned relatively example as required of this expense has certain discount.When example is not used, will be not to its charge.Equally, will be hourly during less than one hour when example working time by one.
For the windows example, when the user uses in the process of this example, if when the windows licence fee increases, can be by adjusting the discount rate that the user per hour charges, reach the identical and impregnable purpose of nonrecurring charge of income.
(3) field case
Field case can be bidded the user for untapped Amazon EC2 resource.This price be along with market to the supply and demand of field case and cyclic swing.The user can issue a field case request, comprises that example types, example Regional Distribution, example number and its be willing to mean the maximum price that this example is per hour paid.If user's maximum price has surpassed current on-the-spot price, its request will be performed.
By above-mentioned charging way analysis to three kinds of business models of Amazon EC2 as can be known, though these patterns can be removed the numerous and diverse book keeping operation operation of cloud administrative center from, lack justice to the user.Charge according to the resource operating position, more fair to the user, but, corresponding charging method is not proposed promptly instantly, there is not corresponding faith mechanism, so do not adopted mostly by reality yet.
