Description

Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a system and a method for providing a cloud market service for selling a software-

The present invention relates to a system and a method for providing a cloud market service for selling content based on software as a service, and more particularly, to a system and method for providing a cloud market service, A service that allows companies or individuals to purchase imaged content that is already sold in the cloud market and then use it instantly in a public cloud system or private cloud system by simply uploading it to the cloud market and verifying it to the buyer. The present invention relates to a system and a method for providing a cloud market service for selling software based content.

Traditionally, existing methods of selling applications and solutions are made on CDs, or downloaded from the Internet or installed directly on the server of the purchasing company.

However, in order to construct a server for content service, a server must first be allocated, and all service platforms (PaaS) required for service construction must be installed before the service can be performed. There are also problems that environment setting that is difficult for beginners to understand, so there is a double task that solution builders have to set environment and install program on every customer's server.

Market services for applications or content that apply to mobile phones and smartphones or smart TVs are largely done through browsing, purchasing, downloading and execution. In this case, only client programs are packaged, It is a structure that can be downloaded from the store and installed and executed. Such content is merely a client program, and a server program for a client service needs to be built up separately. In addition, general server programs directly access content and environment It is done in a way that builds.

However, since existing market services have difficulty in providing personalized services for each user for the reason that it is not easy to collect usage patterns for users' applications or contents, There is a disadvantage in that the waiting time until the execution is very flexible and the charging based on the amount of usage of the application or the contents is impossible and the amount of downloadable according to the storage size of the application or contents is limited.

In this regard, Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2012-0051382 (published May 22, 2012) discloses a system and method for providing a market service based on cloud computing and a technology for devices applied thereto.

According to the present invention, in searching for and purchasing a product such as an application or a content and executing it, a market service that allows the server to perform all the processes without downloading the product, Recommendation, and the like, and enables the user to search for, purchase, and execute a desired product regardless of the hardware performance and the software execution environment of the terminal device used by the user.

On the other hand, a few years ago, IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), which provides physical services such as servers, storage, and networks, Platform as a Service (PaaS) And cloud computing systems such as Software as a Service (SaaS) that provides software for users have begun to become popular.

In order to create an instance, we need an image file with the OS installed. Nowadays, we are using cloud computing system which is provided by companies such as Amazon, SK, KT and LG which are doing most of cloud computing business. Supports pure OS only. In addition, all the resources required for development should be installed directly by the developer, and even if the development environment is provided, there is no system that can sell products developed in the cloud environment to an unspecified number.

Even if there is a similar market system, it can only be used in a cloud computing system where it is sold.

Therefore, regardless of whether you use a public cloud or an in-house private cloud, you can create an instance by simply registering images purchased in the cloud market and use the service without setting up or setting up a special environment. In order to build a system, a system that develops a program and plays an intermediary role is needed so that a plurality of people can pay for the image through the system and use the service.

The following are the hypervisor and main cloud platforms, the types of hypervisors used in the cloud platform, and the image formats supported by the hypervisor.

A hypervisor is a logical platform for simultaneously executing a plurality of operating systems in a host computer. The hypervisor is called a virtual machine monitor (VMM) and is generally called a Native (or bare-metal) And Hosted.

The Native hypervisor runs directly on the hardware as the operating system controls the program, and the guest operating system runs on the hardware level 2. Native hypervisors include Open Source Xen, Citrix XenServer, VMware's ESX Server, L4 Microkernel, IBM's Power Hypervisor, Microsoft's Hyper-V, Parallels Server, and KVM (kilobyte virtual machine) I have a Linux kernel in it, which is also a Native way. The hosted hypervisor runs on the host operating system just like regular programs, and the guest operating system running inside the VM runs on three levels of hardware. Typical Hosted hypervisors include VMware's Workstation and Fusion, QEMU, Microsoft's Virtual-PC, Oracle's Virtual Box, Parallels Workstation and Desktop.

The hypervisor is divided into full virtualization and para-virtualization depending on the implementation method. The former virtualization method is a method of fully virtualizing the hardware, and using various operating systems from Windows to Linux without any modification to the OS There is an advantage to be able to do. This is why pre-virtualization requires hardware such as CPUs to support virtualization for full virtualization, which requires Intel's VT or AMD-V capabilities, which have recently been highlighted. The paravirtualization scheme allows the hypervisor to send and receive hardware control commands in the middle, and properly manage the OS to mediate the hardware. Through hardware arbitration by the hypervisor, it is advantageous in terms of speed compared with the previous virtualization, but it has a disadvantage that the OS must be modified. Therefore, the paravirtualization method can not be used in a closed OS such as MS Windows, and there is a limitation that it can be used only in an open source OS like Linux.

The cloud platform is the most popular commercial service provided by Amazon AWS. In addition, commercial services are provided by several companies including Google Cloud and HP Cloud. In Korea, KT provides UCloud and SKT provides TCloud services. Hostway Cloud, ixCloud, etc. exist. CloudStack, Eucalyptus, V CloudDirect, and OpenStack are open-source cloud platforms that can be used by anyone, including: same.

CloudStack is an open source cloud environment development software developed by Cloud.com in the USA. It provides GUI-based management console, multi-hypervisor, software firewall and load balancer. It was acquired by Citrix Systems in July 2011 and supports a variety of hypervisors. Supported hypervisors include KVM, XEN, VMware ESXi, Oracle VM, and Bare-metal.

Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus) is an open source project initiated at the University of California, Santa Barbara to create active research and community for cloud computing systems. Currently, it is managed by a company called Eucalyptus Systems. Supported hypervisors include KVM, XEN and VMware's ESXi.

V Cloud Director is a platform developed by VMware for deploying the cloud. It can be used to build a hybrid cloud through the system, or simply implement the V cloud director if the entire infrastructure is built using VMware products. Therefore, V Cloud Director is a cloud platform dedicated to VMware products.

OpenStack is an open source project initiated by NASA and Rackspace in July 2010. It consists of Nova, a compute service, Swift, an object storage service, and Glance, an image service. In addition, Quantum, Cinder, a block storage service, and Horizon, a web UI. KVM, XEN, and QEMU are the types of hypervisors that are supported by Open Stack.

At the heart of the cloud market is the image format supported by each hypervisor. There are various types of hypervisors that support various cloud platforms. These hypervisors also have image formats that they support. In the cloud market, And the purchaser can register the purchased image directly in the cloud system and use the service only by creating the instance.

The following Tables 1 and 2 illustrate the image formats and abbreviation tables supported for each hypervisor.

However, as the above-mentioned cloud computing technology advances, the need for a server has been reduced. However, current application sales method is the same as before, and application marketing using a cloud system is hard to find.

In addition, most developers using the cloud system are only using it for internal development, and they are using the same sales method when they return the developed content to the market. The situation is the same for companies that use the public cloud. It is only renting server or storage. It is structured so that service can be provided only after all stages from development environment setup to development.
