Description

Virtualized network function network element arrangement scheduling method, device and system
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the technical field of containers in the field of cloud computing, and in particular relates to a method, a device and a system for scheduling network element arrangement of a virtualized network function.
Background
NFV (Network Functions Virtualization, network function virtualization), 5G network element micro-service design, and containerized deployment have been trends, but each VNF (Virtual Network Function, virtualized network function) in a container service supply chain has a certain dependency relationship between network elements, and in a service scenario with large concurrency and low latency, in order to ensure efficient network transmission performance, it is often required to schedule the container VNF affinity with the dependency relationship into the same cluster, the same node, and even the same Pod (container instance).
In the related art, one approach is VNF cluster level affinity scheduling. I.e. scheduling the interdependent VNFs to different nodes of the same cluster, results in unstable network functionality. For VNFs with high response speed requirements, the VNFs are deployed independently across nodes, and still cannot meet a low latency scenario, performance loss exists in inter-VNF cross-node communication through a network stack, and it is difficult for network services to guarantee basic user experience.
One approach is VNF node level affinity scheduling. That is, each VNF that is interdependent is scheduled to the same node of the same cluster, resulting in resource waste, some cluster nodes are too idle, some cluster nodes are too tight, and even the VNF of the whole service chain container cannot be scheduled under the conditions of user traffic surge and resource shortage. The inter-VNF communication between the container VNFs in the same node needs to go through the kernel loop, and there is still a certain performance loss.
Another approach is Tag (label) based VNF container group level affinity scheduling. I.e. the VNFs of strongly dependent containers are manually labeled with the same Pod and scheduled to run on the same Pod, resulting in great operational difficulties. When the service needs to upgrade and roll back, only the Pod level can be operated uniformly, and independent life cycle management can not be carried out on different container VNs in the same Pod.

Aiming at the problems of resource waste and performance loss of network functions after the scheduling of the container VNF, the present disclosure provides a method, a device and a system for scheduling the network elements of the virtualized network function.
Fig. 1 is a flow diagram of some embodiments of a virtualized network function network element orchestration scheduling method of the present disclosure.
In step 110, a dependency relationship between VNF network elements in a container service chain and a network stack type of each VNF network element are obtained.
If the network delay tolerance of the front and rear VNF network elements in one container service chain is smaller than the threshold value, it is indicated that the two VNF network elements have a dependency relationship.
In some embodiments, the network stack type of the VNF network element includes: and supporting the direct communication type and the local loop communication type of the user-state memory interface.
The VNF network element in this embodiment is a more fine-grained one-container micro-service VNF that can be containerized, compared to a traditional VNF network element, where one container carries one VNF.
In step 120, the resource occupancy of each node in each cluster is obtained.
In some embodiments, a monitoring client is set in each node, and the monitoring client is used for monitoring the resource occupation condition of each node, feeding back the resource occupation condition to the monitoring server in a timing manner, and the monitoring server collects the resource occupation condition of each node uploaded by the monitoring client.
In step 130, scheduling is performed on each VNF network element according to the dependency relationship between VNF network elements, the network stack type of each VNF network element, and the resource occupation condition of each node.
In the above embodiment, according to the dependency relationship among VNF network elements, the network stack type of each VNF network element, and the resource occupation condition of each node, each VNF network element is scheduled, and on the premise of meeting the service response time requirement, the container resource overhead is minimized, the network quality can be ensured to the greatest extent, and the resource utilization rate of the bottom layer device is improved.
Fig. 2 is a flow chart illustrating further embodiments of a virtualized network function network element orchestration scheduling method of the present disclosure.
In step 210, a dependency relationship between VNF network elements in a container service chain and a network stack type of each VNF network element are obtained.
In step 220, the resource occupancy of each node in each cluster is obtained.
In step 230, it is determined whether a node can meet the requirement of the VNF network element with the dependency relationship according to the resource occupation condition of the node, if so, step 240 is performed, otherwise, step 270 is performed.
In some embodiments, it is further determined whether a node can meet the requirements of multiple VNF networks by calculating network performance requirements and resource overhead between VNF network elements in the container service chain.
In step 240, according to the network stack type of each VNF network element, it is determined whether the VNF network elements with the dependency relationship support direct communication of the user mode memory interface, if so, step 250 is performed, otherwise, step 260 is performed.
In step 250, VNF network element arrangements with dependencies are scheduled into the same container instance of the same node. I.e. multiple VNF network elements are orchestrated and scheduled into the same Pod of the same node, one Pod encapsulating one or more containers.
Compared with the node-level affinity scheduling scheme, the VNF network elements in the multiple Pods can reduce network paths and resource expenses among the VNF network elements through local loop communication, enhance performance and improve network service quality.
In some embodiments, multiple VNFs are scheduled into the same Pod, and since each Pod has its own independent namespace, multiple containers in one Pod may share the same isolated process's namespace IPC, which is equivalent to multiple containers may communicate with each other using standard inter-process communication methods, such as SystemV semaphores and POSIX shared memory, without the need for kernel-mode loop-back communication. In addition, the containers in the same Pod use a directory on the host as a shared volume (shared volume), and share data among multiple containers, i.e. multiple containers multiplex memory page resources, so as to reduce the cost of the container resources.
In some embodiments, VNF network elements with a dependency relationship may be scheduled to the same Pod in a labeled manner, so that an operation and maintenance person may perform lifecycle management on any container in the Pod, simplifying operation and maintenance, and enabling VNF affinity of a strongly dependent container to be scheduled to the same Pod while not changing an existing deployment habit.
In the related art, each VNF network element with a requirement needs to be manually labeled, and VNF network elements with the same label are scheduled to the same Pod, in an actual application scenario, one VNF is usually deployed in batches or reused in multiple service chains, in this embodiment, only VNFs with a dependency relationship are labeled and deployed in the same Pod.
In step 260, the VNF network elements supporting direct communication of the user state memory interface and the VNF network elements not supporting direct communication of the user state memory interface are respectively scheduled to different container instances of the same node.
In some embodiments, VNF network elements in different container instances scheduled to the same node are orchestrated to communicate over a local loop.
In step 270, VNF network element arrangements with dependencies are scheduled into different nodes of the same cluster.
In some embodiments, VNF network elements scheduled to different nodes are orchestrated to communicate across hosts.
When a plurality of VNF network elements are scheduled to the same container instance, the VNF network elements directly communicate by using a user mode memory interface, the network performance of the communication between the VNF network elements is highest, and the resource cost to the node is also minimum; when a plurality of VNF network elements are respectively scheduled to container examples with different nodes, local loop communication is utilized among the VNF network elements, so that the performance is low; when multiple VNF network elements are respectively scheduled to different nodes, inter-host communication is required between the multiple VNF network elements, and network performance is the worst.
In the above embodiment, according to the dependency relationship between VNF network elements, the network stack type of each VNF network element, and the resource occupation condition of each node, the arrangement mode in the container instance is preferentially selected, and on the premise of meeting the service response time requirement, the container resource overhead is minimized.
In other embodiments of the present disclosure, when the host resources are sufficient, if there is no dependency between two VNF network elements before and after the container service chain, and the communication network delay between two nodes cannot meet the maximum value of the network delay tolerance between two VNF network elements, the two VNF network elements are scheduled to different container instances of the same node.
In some embodiments, if there is no dependency between two VNF network elements before and after the container service chain, and one node cannot meet the requirements of the two VNF network elements, the two VNF network elements are scheduled to different nodes.
In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3. The container service chain SFC1 includes a VNF1 network element, a VNF2 network element, a VNF3 network element, and a VNF4 network element, where a dependency relationship exists between the VNF1 network element and the VNF2 network element. Node a includes Pod1 and Pod2, and node B includes Pod3, among other pods. The monitoring client A monitors the resource occupation condition of the node A, and the monitoring client B monitors the resource occupation condition of the node B, wherein the monitoring client A and the monitoring client B respectively send the monitored resource occupation condition of the node to the monitoring server. The scheduling decision module gathers the dependency relationship of the VNF network elements, monitors the node resource use condition analyzed by the server, and schedules the VNF network elements to appropriate nodes or Pods according to the need. For example, VNF1 and VNF2 network elements are scheduled into Pod1 of node a, VNF3 network element is scheduled into Pod2 of node a, and VNF4 network element is scheduled into Pod3 of node B. The VNF1 network element and the VNF2 network element are directly communicated through a user mode memory interface, and the VNF1 network element and the VNF3 network element are communicated through a local loop.
In the above embodiment, the network service quality can be ensured, the basic user experience is satisfied, the container resource overhead can be minimized, the resource utilization rate is improved, and the container service chain VNF rationalization scheduling is realized.

In some embodiments, if there is no dependency between two VNF network elements before and after the container service chain, and one node cannot meet the requirements of the two VNF network elements, the two VNF network elements are scheduled to different nodes.
