Detailed ways

Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other if there is no conflict.

It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification, claims, and drawings of the present disclosure are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific sequence or sequence.

The business chain and network topology of the traditional network are tightly coupled, and the deployment is complicated. When the business chain is changed or expanded, the network topology needs to be changed and the network equipment is reconfigured. The emergence of SDN (Software Defined Network, Software Defined Network) has brought life to the business chain. It has made the business chain dynamic, high liquidity, easy to change in scale, and multi-tenant. Based on the configuration of SDN, you can dynamically add or delete service nodes on the linked list, which is not only convenient to use, but also decouples the association between network devices. In the process of data traffic passing through the linked list, SFC also supports the sharing of contextual information between classifiers and services, and between services and services. In the traditional data service chain, data packets often undergo multiple classifications (ie, multiple unpacking and packing) processes. In SFC, this process is greatly reduced, and generally only needs to be classified once, making the entire process more convenient and efficient.

At present, common business chain orchestration methods are roughly divided into the compilation of complex instructions and the construction of visual models. Most of the data configuration process is cumbersome and the ease of use is poor. The writing of complex instructions has high barriers, low efficiency and not intuitive enough. The construction of visual models mostly only supports the simultaneous orchestration of a single business chain. Users need to configure network nodes strictly in accordance with the position agreed by the model, which cannot meet the needs of users for multiple orchestration and one-time delivery, especially when the amount of data is relatively high. At large, it affects the efficiency of business chain orchestration to a certain extent. In addition, the legality of business chain data is often checked in the final deployment process. If the deployment fails after a large number of orchestration operations, users need to perform a large number of modification operations, or even abandon previous efforts.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for orchestrating a business chain is provided. FIG. 1 is a flowchart of the method for orchestrating a business chain according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the process includes steps S102 to S106.

In step S102-13, the routing information corresponding to the selected tenant is obtained, and the tenant table is changed to display the selected tenant information and corresponding routing information, and the routing information includes at least the number of currently searched routes, the ID of the route, and the route name.

For steps S102-11 to S102-13, the user selects a certain tenant in the tenant table, obtains routing data corresponding to the tenant from the server, and changes the tenant table to display the tenant and its corresponding routing information. The routing information table includes the number of routes, routing ID, and routing name. The top of the table displays the tenant ID and tenant name of the tenant. Click to return to the tenant table.

In other embodiments according to the present disclosure, step S104 may include step S104-11 to step S104-12.

In step S104-11, the corresponding service chain data is obtained from the server according to the ID of the designated route.

In step S104-12, a corresponding service topology is constructed according to the service chain data.

For the above steps S104-11 and S104-12, in a specific application scenario, it can be: after a certain route is selected by the user, the corresponding service chain data is obtained from the server according to the selected route ID, and the service topology component obtains according to the obtained Of business chain data to construct business topology.

It should be noted that the arrangement of all the business topologies in this application on the topology components may be top-down arrangement, and each business topology represents a configured business chain. The way of the business topology can be extended from left to right, and the leftmost is the source topology node of the flow, which represents all the flow sources of the current business chain. The middle is the intermediate device nodes that pass by in turn, and the direction of drainage and the devices and ports passing by in turn can be clearly seen. On the far right is the destination topology node of the flow, which represents all the flow ends of the current business chain. Click any node in the business topology, and a detailed table will pop up on the right side of the topology component to display the detailed information of the current business chain, including business chain ID, drainage type, quintuple information of all drainage sources and destinations, intermediate equipment and Port information, etc.

In other embodiments according to the present disclosure, step S106 may include step S106-11 to step S106-14.

In step S106-11, the topology node to be arranged is selected from the list of topology nodes, and the topology node to be arranged is dragged to the business chain topology component based on the drag operation of the user.

In step S106-12, it is determined whether the coordinates of the topology node to be arranged are within the coordinate range of the business chain topology in the business chain topology component.

In step S106-13, in the case where the judgment result is yes, the topology node to be orchestrated is taken as a newly added node of the business chain topology and arranged in the business chain topology.

It should be noted that step S106-13 may include step S11 to step S13.

In step S11, the node type of the newly added node is determined, and the node type includes a classifier type and a port type.

When the type of the new node is port and the new node is the first port type node in the business chain topology, and the classifier type node exists in the business chain topology, the new node is automatically added to the business chain graph topology The node of the configured classifier type points to the new node of the port type; or, the new node type is port and the new node is the first port type node in the business chain topology, and the business chain topology If there is no node of the classifier type, the automatic link creation of the new node is not performed; or, when the type of the new node is port and the new node is not the first port type in the business chain topology In the case of nodes and nodes of the classifier type in the business chain topology, the new node is automatically added to the business chain topology and the configured port type node points to the port type new node.

In step S106-14, in the case where the judgment result is no, a new service chain topology is created based on the topology nodes to be arranged.

In other embodiments according to the present disclosure, the service chain orchestration method may further include step S108: after each orchestration operation is performed, verify the integrity of the service chain topology after the orchestration, and send the verification As a result, the integrity of the business chain topology includes at least: each business chain topology includes at least one port type node and one classifier type node, all nodes are configured with parameters, and all nodes are normal.

Step S108 can be in specific application scenarios: After each orchestration operation, the system updates the cached business chain data according to the current operation and verifies the integrity of the business chain data, and then sends an Ajax asynchronous request to the background to perform real-time verification of configuration data And feedback. The orchestration operations that need to be verified include: drag and drop the topology node, configure and update the parameters of the topology node, delete the topology node of the business chain, delete the business chain, and so on. The verification step includes: judging the integrity of the current business chain topology, that is, each business chain topology must contain at least one port and classifier node, and prompting an incomplete business chain; for topology nodes without configuration parameters, use different colors Distinguish to prompt the user to improve the attributes of the topology node; for a business chain with a complete topology, encapsulate the details of the business chain according to the cached topology data and send an asynchronous request to the server to verify whether the current business chain data can be deployed normally. According to the result of the request, the related business chain is modified and fed back. After all the business chain data is successfully verified, the business chain data can be updated, thereby avoiding large-scale modification operations that may be caused by a large number of business chains that are arranged at the same time and deployed.

The present disclosure will be exemplified below in conjunction with other embodiments of the present disclosure.

This embodiment provides a visual business chain orchestration method. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a visual business chain orchestration method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes steps S201 to S206.

In step S201, the business topology component and tenant table are initialized, and tenant information is loaded. The initial business chain orchestration interface is a topology component built by AngularJS. The topology component supports functions such as display, arrangement, and export of the network topology. The upper left corner of the topology component contains the tenant search box. Click the tenant search box, and the tenant form will pop up at the bottom of the search box to display all tenant information obtained from the server, including the number of tenants currently searched, tenant ID and tenant name.

In step S202, the routing data under a certain tenant is selected, and the service topology is loaded. The user selects a certain tenant in the tenant table, obtains the routing data corresponding to the selected tenant from the server, and changes the tenant table to display the selected tenant and its corresponding routing information. The routing information table includes the number of currently searched routes, route ID and route name. The top of the table displays the tenant ID and tenant name of the selected tenant. Click to return to the tenant table.

The user selects a certain route, obtains the corresponding service chain data from the server according to the selected route ID, and the topology component constructs the service topology according to the obtained service chain data. All business topologies can be arranged from top to bottom on topological components, and each business topology represents a configured business chain. The business topology can extend from left to right, and the leftmost is the source topology node for drainage, which represents all the drainage sources of the current business chain. The middle is the intermediate device nodes that pass by in turn, and the direction of drainage and the devices and ports passing by in turn can be clearly seen. On the far right is the destination topology node of the flow, which represents all the flow ends of the current business chain. Click any node in the business topology, and a detailed table will pop up on the right side of the topology component to display the detailed information of the current business chain, including business chain ID, drainage type, quintuple information of all drainage sources and destinations, intermediate equipment and Port information, etc.

In step S203, the business chain layout is started, the business chain topology interface is initialized, and the business chain topology is loaded. Click the "Business Chain Orchestration" button or the "Business Chain Orchestration" button in the right-click menu of the business topology node, and a modal box will pop up on the page to display the business chain topology components. All business chain topologies can be arranged from top to bottom on topological components, and each business chain topology represents a business chain that has been configured or is being configured. The service chain topology mainly includes two types of nodes, classifier and port, which in turn represent the flow-draining object and the flow-draining intermediate device port. Each business chain topology includes at least one classifier and at least one port. The leftmost part of the business chain topology, which is the starting point of the topology diagram, is one or more classifiers, all of which point to the first port. All ports are arranged in the form of a singly linked list, marking the drainage route of the configuration service chain, corresponding to the intermediate nodes of the service topology. Click the topology node, and a detailed table will pop up on the right side of the topology component, displaying the configuration information of the current business chain, including business chain ID, classifier, port, etc. In addition, the topology in the business topology component corresponds to the topology in the business chain topology component, which can be jumped and highlighted through the right-click menu button of the node, and users can quickly find the corresponding data in many business chains.

The business chain topology component maintains a cache data structure, which is used to record all the business chain data currently configured, and is used for related calculations in orchestration operations and final deployment updates. The cache mainly records node location information, node configuration data, and node link information of all business chain topologies.

In step S204, drag the topology node or click the right-click menu option of the topology node to arrange the service chain.

Step S204 may include step S204-11 to step S204-15.

In step S204-11, determine which service chain topology the new node belongs to according to the position of the node.

In step S204-12, the node location is determined according to the node type and the cache data of the current service chain.

In step S204-13, a topology link related to the newly created node is automatically generated.

In step S204-14, the node attribute table pops up, and the node attributes are improved to complete the node configuration.

In step S204-15, determine the integrity of the current service chain topology and the legality of the data, and feed back the result to the user.

That is to say, for the above steps S204-11 to S204-15, first, drag the topology node in the topology node list on the left to add a service chain topology node. After the dragging action is over, the system will obtain the new node in the service chain Coordinate data in the topology component. After that, compare the coordinate data of the new node with the coordinate range of all the configured business chain topologies. If the new coordinate is within the coordinate range of a certain business chain topology, then the new node belongs to the new node of this business chain topology; if Does not exist in the coordinate range of any business chain topology, then a new business chain topology is created, and the new node belongs to the node of the new business chain topology. The coordinate range of each business chain topology is calculated by the range threshold and the data of the configured nodes of the current business chain. The edge nodes around the current business chain can be obtained according to the cached data, and then the coordinates of the edge nodes are added to the range threshold to obtain the coordinate range of the current business chain. This embodiment does not limit the range threshold of the topology.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of the service chain arrangement according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Fig. 3, the dragged new node node1 is located in the coordinate range of the service chain SFC1, and is a new node of the configured service chain SFC1; The new node node2 is located in the coordinate range of the business chain SFC2, and is a new node of the configured business chain SFC2; the dragged new node node3 does not belong to any configured business chain topology range, then create a new business chain SFC3 and use node3 as Create the first topology node of the new business chain. When the topology is dragged into the coordinate range of a certain service chain topology, the service chain topology node can flash to indicate. There is no overlapping coordinate range for each business chain topology to avoid conflicts.

After determining which business chain topology the new business chain topology node belongs to, it is necessary to calculate the position of the new node in the current business chain and automatically generate the topology link. If the new node is the topological node of the new business chain, create a new business chain at the bottom of the topology, and the new node is located at the top position of the new business chain topology (node3 in Figure 3); if the new node is a configured business chain For newly added nodes, the link and location information are confirmed according to the node type and the cache information of the current service chain. When the node type is classifier, the topology link is automatically generated, and the node points to the first port node that has been configured, which means that the current drainage object uses the intermediate device node pointed to (node1 in Figure 3); if it has not been created yet port node, no link is created, indicating that there is no intermediate device node for the current drainage object. All the classifier nodes are located on the leftmost side of the current topology, arranged from top to bottom, and the newly created classifier node is located on the bottom side. At the same time, the classifier form pops up on the right side of the topology component, and the user fills in the information such as the source and destination IP and port of the flow to configure a classifier node. When the node type is port, if this node is the first port node created and a new classifier node already exists, the link will point to this node from all configured classifier nodes, indicating that this node is the first intermediate device node and has been There is a drainage object; if this node is the first port node created and there is no new classifier node, no link is created, indicating that this node is the first intermediate device node but there is no drainage object; if this node is not created The first port node, the link points from the last configured port node to this node, indicating that this node is an intermediate device node but not the first intermediate device node in the drainage route (node2 in Figure 3). All port nodes are arranged in a singly linked list from left to right, and the newly created port node is located on the far right. At the same time, the port form pops up on the right side of the topology component, and the user can configure a port node by selecting the intermediate device port through which the traffic flows.

When creating a new business chain, users can also update the location of topology nodes by dragging and dropping. The operation process is basically the same as that of creating a new node, and no further explanation is given here. The options in the right-click menu of all topology nodes support attribute modification and deletion of a node in the service chain. The modified topology node and the new topology node are presented in different colors, which is convenient for users to distinguish.

In step S205, the validity of the data after each arrangement operation is verified in real time and fed back to the user. After each orchestration operation, the system updates the cached business chain data according to the current operation and verifies the integrity of the business chain data, and then sends an Ajax asynchronous request to the background to perform real-time verification and feedback of configuration data. The orchestration operations that need to be verified include: drag and drop the topology node, configure and update the parameters of the topology node, delete the topology node of the business chain, delete the business chain, and so on. Taking Figure 3 as an example, the verification steps include: judging the integrity of the current business chain topology, that is, each business chain topology must contain at least one port and classifier node, and prompt for incomplete business chains; for no configuration parameters The topology nodes are distinguished by different colors to prompt the user to improve the attributes of the topology node; for a business chain with a complete topology structure, the business chain details are encapsulated according to the cached topology data and then an asynchronous request is sent to the server to verify the current business chain data Whether it can be deployed normally. According to the result of the request, the related business chain is modified and fed back. After all the business chain data is successfully verified, the business chain data can be updated. This avoids large-scale modification operations that may be caused by a large number of business chains that are arranged at the same time and then deployed.

In step S206, the service chain is deployed.

After configuring the complete business chain information, click the deployment button of the business chain topology component, the front-end integrates the business chain data on the topology component, and sends a business chain update request to the server to perform addition, deletion, and modification operations on the business chain. After successful deployment, the topology component presents the latest business chain information.
