Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
The invention aims to provide a method and a system for managing cloud software for charging on demand, a cloud service end system and a cloud user end system, and aims to solve the technical problems that software files are too large and the cost for charging the legal version of a user is too high in the existing software using method.
It should be noted that the software using method provided by the present invention is based on a container technology. Generally, container technology is generally referred to as Docker technology. One container contains the complete runtime environment: an application, all dependencies required by the application, class libraries, other binaries, configuration files, all of which are uniformly typed into a package. The container technology has the following advantages: 1) Extremely light-weight: only the necessary Bin/Lib files are packaged; 2) Deployment on the second level: depending on the image, the deployment of containers is roughly between milliseconds and seconds (much stronger than virtual machines); 3) Easy transplantation: once construction and anywhere deployment; 4) Elastic expansion: open-sourced, convenient, flexible container management platforms such as those using kubernets, swam, messes, etc., have a very strong flexibility in managing.
In addition, in general, the container technology is mainly applied to the Docker technology. Under the weak personalized running environment, a complete and available operating system or software application environment is rapidly deployed through the discrete combination of files (configuration server and Spring Cloud Config are attached to realize the change of configuration files).
No matter the original installation package of the operating system or the application software, the rest files are not changed except the configuration files possibly. The file can be identified in the disk by defining/positioning the disk, so as to realize the 'discrete storage' or 'collection/integration' of the file. By containerizing the application platform and the dependence thereof, differences caused by the release version of the operating system and other basic environments are abstracted, so that the containers can be distributed to different operating systems to achieve a common effect.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for managing cloud software for charging on demand, which is based on container technology, and referring to fig. 1, in a first implementation manner, includes the following steps S101, S102, S103, and S104.
S101: and the cloud server-side system receives a software use request with a use requirement sent by the cloud client-side system, and acquires file information carried in the request.
It should be noted that, the service end system on the cloud generally refers to a server side, and the client end system on the cloud generally refers to a client side, where the server side is generally located at a provider side of the software, and the client side is generally located at a user side that needs the software.
The user sends a software using request to the cloud service end system through the cloud user end system, and file information of expected use is attached to the software using request, wherein the file information comprises: time of use of the target software, software type, software version, software function, etc.
In addition, the control right of charging is a service end system on the cloud, and various payment modes can be realized according to the use requirements of a user side, for example: according to the using time, the subscription times, the lifelong purchase and outage system, the function module package and the like, the cloud service end system can flexibly encrypt any one or more of the required types of the software container mirror images.
And S102, generating a transaction instruction of a corresponding price according to the file information in a matching manner.
And the cloud service end system compares and matches the file information acquired in the step S101 with a price scheme prestored in the cloud service end system to acquire the price of the current use behavior to be paid by the user. The pre-stored price scheme comprises unit prices of basic time of each software version, the total price of the current use behavior of the user can be obtained by combining the expected use time of the user, or other types of charging modes are formed, and a transaction instruction is formed. The transaction instruction is sent to a cloud user-side system (namely, a user) through the cloud service-side system. In addition, the charging mode is not limited to be performed according to the use time, and can be performed according to the number of times of subscription, the function module package used as required, or even directly according to lifetime use.
The transaction instruction mainly comprises the price and payment of the current use behavior of the user, and the payment can be finished by scanning two-dimensional codes, transferring accounts on the internet, paying instead by others, prepaying by members and the like; and when the service end system on the cloud confirms that the money is received, the transaction instruction is regarded as being activated.
S103, judging whether the transaction instruction is activated; and when the transaction instruction is activated, sending the software container image ID mapped by the file information to a user end system on the cloud.
After the cloud service-side system confirms that the transaction instruction is activated, the cloud service-side system sends the ID of the software container mirror image to the cloud user-side system, wherein the software container mirror image is identified through the ID of the software container mirror image.
S104, the cloud service end system sends a software container mirror image corresponding to the software container mirror image ID to a cloud user end system, and simultaneously binds the software container mirror image with the cloud user end system for the hardware of the unique hardware information; encrypting and charging the software container mirror image of the cloud user end system through a user proprietary privatization protocol according to the use requirement; and when the usage demand charging is completed, locking and disabling the software container mirror image.
And charging encryption is carried out on the corresponding software container mirror image in the request aiming at the file information in the request sent by the user, wherein the charging mode is the use requirement in the user request. The software container mirror image in the charging can be normally used by the user, and after the charging is finished, the file of the software container mirror image is locked and forbidden.
Particularly, one software container mirror image contains one file or one file set, and when the software container mirror image is created, a mapping relation between the ID of the software container mirror image and the information of the file contained in the software container mirror image is also generated, and the mapping relation is stored in a mapping table between the file information and the ID of the software container mirror image.
Therefore, the charging encryption is carried out in the software container mirror image, so that the user can freely and flexibly select the service time, the subscription times, the functional modules and the like of the software, the operation is flexible, and the cost is greatly reduced.
In addition, the cloud service end system identifies the unique hardware information of the hardware of the cloud user end system; unique hardware information includes, but is not limited to: BIOS code, CID, IMEI, etc. The distributed software mirror image container is bound with the hardware, the only hardware information of the hardware is authenticated when the software mirror image container is started every time, if the authentication result is not matched, the software mirror image container can be regarded as software service or application embezzlement, and the service end system on the cloud can lock or automatically unload the software mirror image in the hardware. Therefore, the software is effectively prevented from being stolen.
Then, if based on the Windows system, the software container mirror image is enabled by rewriting the 'registry' of the user side on the cloud; if the software container image is based on a Linux system (namely, an android system), the software container image is enabled to be effective through a Preferences module recorded on the cloud user side. Linux-based containerization is generally much easier than Windows.
With reference to the first implementable manner, in a second implementable manner, the method further includes the following steps: searching whether a historical software container mirror image mapped with the file information exists in a user side system on the cloud or not according to the file information; and if the historical software container mirror image mapped with the file information exists, unlocking the historical software container mirror image of the user end system on the cloud and recharging.
In the implementation mode, the method mainly aims at users who use the same type of software with the same version for the second time. The historical software container image refers to a software container image which is stored in a user end system (namely a user) on the cloud in a local file or cache mode. When the historical software container mirror image is detected to exist, the encrypted file part of the software container mirror image can be directly changed, and the software container mirror image is reactivated according to the use requirement in a new user request. Thus, when the user reuses the software many times, there is no need to redistribute or download it.
In addition, there may be an ID of the historical software container image existing in the client system on the cloud, but the historical software container image does not exist (for example, the cache has been cleaned), and at this time, corresponding redistribution may be performed on the ID of the software container image.
With reference to the second implementable manner, in a third implementable manner, the method further includes the following steps: comparing the latest software container mirror image with the historical software container mirror image; and if the version of the historical software container mirror image is lower than that of the latest software container mirror image, the historical software container mirror image is subjected to application upgrading to the latest software container mirror image version.
Note that, there are cases where: the user uses the same version of software for a plurality of subsequent times, and the same version of software is possibly upgraded or patched, or uses the software with higher version. At this point, the latest software container image will be of a higher version than the historical software container images that exist in the user's hardware. In view of the above situation, in the subsequent use process of the user, the cloud service end system performs application upgrade on the version of the historical software container mirror image to the latest version, and the result of using the latest software can be achieved most quickly and most trouble-effectively.
It should be noted that application upgrade of the historical software container mirror image is not mandatory, and when a version difference is detected, the user is prompted to perform upgrade, and when the user refuses upgrade, the version of the historical software container mirror image is kept unchanged.
In addition, there is a case that when the version of the historical software container image is higher than the version required by the user, and the requirement of the user is a software container image of a low version, at this time, the cloud server-side system changes the version of the software container image of the cloud client-side system, all subject to the requirement of the user.
In addition, there is a case that prices of various versions of certain software are different, and a higher version exists in a historical software container mirror image, at this time, the cloud server-side system prompts the cloud client-side system to perform version upgrading, and generates a new transaction instruction according to the price difference caused by the difference between the two versions, and after the cloud client-side system (i.e., the user) activates the transaction instruction, the cloud server-side system performs corresponding version upgrading on the historical software container information of the user side.
With reference to the first implementation manner, in a fourth implementation manner, the step of generating a transaction instruction of a corresponding price according to file information matching includes: decomposing the information of the file, including the use duration, the software type and the software version; matching a price scheme preset by the on-cloud service end system according to the information to obtain a corresponding use price result; and generating a corresponding payment mode according to the result of the use price.
The payment mode includes but is not limited to two-dimension code scanning, online transfer, other person payment in place, member prepayment and the like. Particularly, the forms of webpage payment and account transfer can be generated according to the price scheme preset by the information matching on the cloud service end system. In addition, the on-cloud user end system can select the use duration, the software type and the version information, and the on-cloud service end system performs corresponding multiplication according to the preset price of each item to obtain a final price result.
In combination with the first implementation manner, in a fifth implementation manner, according to the operation of the software container mirror image, a statistical log and a report are generated and stored in the cloud user end system.
It can be understood that when a user uses the software container image, new files such as registries, caches and the like are inevitably generated. By storing the files generated in the using process locally, the software container mirror image cannot become bloated and influence the use. When the local file is stored locally, the local file is directly extracted for local operation, and the requirement on a network is lower. In addition, the files generated in the local use can also be sent to the cloud for storage.
In addition, according to the operation of the software container mirror image, a corresponding statistical log and a corresponding report are generated, stored in the local and also uploaded to a cloud service end system.
With reference to the first implementable manner, in a sixth implementable manner, the method further includes the steps of: setting an effective period for the software container mirror image of the cloud user side system according to the charging information; and when the service life of the sent software container mirror image exceeds the validity period, the software container mirror image is automatically locked or uninstalled from the cloud user side system.
It should be noted that when the validity period is exceeded, the software container is locked in a mirror image mode or automatically unloaded, and after a user uses the software, the software file of the system can be cleaned, so that the storage load of a user end system on the cloud is reduced; meanwhile, due to the extremely high software distribution speed, when the user uses the software for two or even more times, the software is redistributed and does not affect the use, and the trouble that the user needs to actively clean the software is avoided.
In addition, in order to prevent the user from cracking the software container mirror image for use and the like after the valid period is exceeded, the software container mirror image is automatically unloaded, and the legitimate rights and interests of the cloud service end system can be protected.
With reference to the first implementable manner, in a seventh implementable manner, the method further includes the steps of: carrying out validity authentication on the unique hardware information of the hardware of the cloud user side system; and when the legality authentication is not passed, uploading the unique hardware information and the address information to a cloud service end system.
It should be noted that in the network environment at the present stage, pirated software is used, or the pirated software is cracked and used, or one account is used in a plurality of hardware devices, and the like, which greatly damages the legitimate interests of software developers and is not beneficial to innovation. Therefore, when a certain user cracks or steals software, the unique information of the hardware of the current user is identified, if the authentication is not passed, the current software is locked and forbidden, and the unique information of the hardware is uploaded to the service end system on the cloud. Therefore, by adopting the scheme, the traceability of the theft of the software can be effectively carried out, thereby maintaining the legitimate rights and interests of the software developer or the issuer.
