Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of computer infrastructure performance tests, and more particularly the management of the use of resources (processor, operating system, memory etc.) of an infrastructure hosting applications.
- IT infrastructures represent a significant investment for companies.
- An IT infrastructure refers to all the hardware-like elements and software components of a company's or organization's computer system. It also includes virtual machines that designate application or operating system (OS) environments that are installed on software that mimics dedicated hardware, and partitions that designate subsets of a machine's hardware resources. physical.
- the . partitions are virtual environments with associated virtual memory space, storage space, and compute frequency.
- the objective of the present invention is to allow better use of resources by each application by assigning it, at the right time, resources not used by other applications.
- the present invention takes into account and takes advantage of the knowledge of the seasonality of the application resource requirements.
- a seasonality plan provides for the use of virtual machines and partitions over several hours, days, or weeks.
- the present invention relates to a method and a system for optimizing the use of virtual machines and partitions by automatically generating a usage plan of the different virtual machines and partitions according to the resources of the different servers.
- the term probe refers to a detection module (which may be in the form of a program or computer software) capable of collecting statistical data on the use of a hardware or software resource (for example the number of open ports) of a machine.
- a method for distributing virtual machines and partitions on one or more servers of an IT infrastructure comprising several servers and several machines, in a function of the resources of the host applications, including the steps of:
- a configuration module able to configure and deploy probes on a computer infrastructure
- an analysis module able to collect measurements made by the probes, take into account the production capacity of each server, analyze the data collected and establish a schedule of the application resource requirements
- a calibration module able to create a hosting plan of the virtual machines and partitions on the servers of the infrastructure and a sizing plan governing, for each application, the distribution of virtual machines and partitions on the different servers.
- the present invention proposes a method for distributing virtual machines and partitions on the servers of an IT infrastructure.
- the drawing illustrates the different steps of this process. These steps can be grouped into three phases numbered 1, 2 and 3.
- Phase 1 is a calibration phase. It consists of two steps:
- An information system is an organized set of resources that collects, stores, processes and distributes information.
- a probe is a piece of computer equipment for detecting information of interest relating to data streams of a computer network.
- a security probe is intended to detect intrusions into the network.
- the information detected and collected by the probes can be multiple. In the context of the present invention, it is mainly statistical data on the use of a hardware or software resource of a machine.
- the measurements made by the probes can relate to any type of resource of one or more servers (eg the average processor power consumed, the network read rate, the memory, the average read / write rate on a disk).
- the information may relate to any point of contention (an element that may hinder the operation of the IT infrastructure) detected during performance testing: number of packets lost, number of open ports, number of open files, or other system limitations can be considered a bottleneck, limiting the overall performance of the IT infrastructure.
- the examples of previous measurements are not an exhaustive list, but simply presents what can be a probe. Indeed, it can, in practice, have probes on hundreds of parameters. In the context of the present invention, it is the probes that make it possible to measure the critical resources of an application that are chosen. This choice varies from one application to another.
- Step 4 of the probe configuration consists in defining the start time of the probes and the frequency of the measurements to be made (sampling frequency of the probes), the nature of these measurements as well as the resources on which these measurements will be carried out. This configuration step 4 makes it possible to concentrate the measurements on the critical resources which will make the calculations easier.
- the sampling frequency of the probes can be parameterized, but must be common to all the probes for the same application.
- the start time of the probes can refer to a particular date and time. The probes must start at the same time and have the same sampling frequency so that the measurements are correlatable to each other.
- Deployment consists of installing and starting the different probes on the target machines.
- Phase 2 is an analysis phase of the data collected by the probes. This phase can be divided into three stages:
- a step 6 of collecting the results provided by the probes - a step 7 of taking into account the resource production capacities of the servers and
- the resource production capacity of each server in the infrastructure is calculated in step 7.
- the production capacity of a server is the number of resources and the type of resources that the server is able to implement.
- the production capacity can be deduced from the hardware specifications of the server and the architecture of the virtualization solution used taking into account the minimum resources required by the server and resources dedicated to its high availability.
- the production capacities are determined taking into account the observation of application contention points as well as the rules of good practice that may vary between companies and applications. Some contention points are physical limits that can be measured by performing performance tests on infrastructure (eg read / write capacity of a storage system).
- Those skilled in the art will be able to use known production monitoring mechanisms to determine which resources are used and calculate the utilization levels of these resources for each application.
- An example of a standard production monitoring mechanism is given by the Nagios (registered trademark) application which alerts the user of the malfunctions of the systems to be monitored and their return to standard operation.
- Step 8 of data analysis consists, from the information collected, and through the same production monitoring mechanisms, to deduce the seasonality of the use of applications and their resource consumption.
- Each application has its own seasonality and schedule that can be established by implementing application chain monitoring for a full i.e. cycle containing all the seasons that the application is experiencing. A cycle can last from several weeks to a year.
- This step 8 then makes it possible to generate a schedule of the resource requirements of the different servers, taking into account the use of the different applications, which makes it possible to predict the needs of the servers over a predetermined duration (of several weeks to a year).
- Phase 3 is a calibration phase. It comprises two steps numbered 9 and 10.
- Step 9 consists, starting from the previously calculated calendar and the resource production capacities of the various calculated servers, to establish a hosting plan of the different virtual machines and the partitions on the servers. balancing the use of resources on these different servers.
- the hosting plan indicates on which (virtual) machine or partition or physical server will be deployed all the subsystems of the application chains of the set or a subset of the information system.
- Step 10 consists of generating an application sizing plan.
- This sizing plan governs, for each application, the distribution of the different virtual machines and partitions of said application to optimize the use of resources of the various servers of the infrastructure.
- the sizing plan shows how virtual machines, partitions, and physical servers are sized all or a subset of the information system taking into account the accommodation plan.
- the sizing indicates which resources (eg CPU or Central Processing Unit or CPU, Memory, Input / Output or 10 or Inputs / Outputs) are allocated to each virtual machine, partition and physical server.
- the sizing and hosting plans of the various virtual machines and partitions make it possible to avoid the saturation of critical resources of the applications.
- the present invention also proposes a system, which may be in the form of a software or an application, comprising configuration, analysis and calibration modules programmed with instructions for carrying out the phases 1 respectively. configuration, analysis 2 and calibration 3 of the method described above.
