Editor's note:
EasyStack ECS, a new generation private cloud of EasyStack, commercializes the operation and maintenance experience of 1,000+ large and medium-sized enterprise customers and tens of thousands of node-scale cloud platforms, and realizes light operation and maintenance. It is based on a safe, stable, and efficient new-generation data center distributed cloud operating system. It separates the platform from the service through an integrated and scenario-based design concept, and realizes the evolvability and light operation and maintenance capabilities of the entire platform. In terms of light operation and maintenance, it can realize the intelligent unified operation and maintenance of ultra-large-scale cloud computing centers. It not only realizes the visualization and automation of logs, monitoring, and alarms, but also autonomously detects changes in system topology and service status, and then realizes intelligent perception Fault pre-diagnosis analysis and rapid self-healing.
This article is the installation and deployment article of the Easy Cloud Light Operation and Maintenance series.
With the continuous expansion of user business systems, more and more new services will be deployed on the platform. Traditional private cloud, as a software system that integrates resources, has a complex architecture, and the overall performance of the platform is limited by physical equipment. The deployment and delivery cycle is long, unstable, slow to go online, and software and hardware operation and maintenance are complex. The new generation of private cloud EasyStack ECS supports automated installation. Through a visual graphical interface, you can plan and build the cloud services required by the business system in a WYSIWYG manner. The entire process does not require manual operation, and hundreds of units are completed in an hour. The installation of physical machines and virtual machines greatly improves delivery efficiency.
Complete the installation and deployment of hundreds of physical and virtual machines in an hour
The new generation private cloud ECS of Yijiexing Cloud provides role-based node automatic installation tools, which can interact with very few users through a visual graphical interface to achieve rapid deployment of computing nodes, storage nodes, control nodes, and network nodes . The installation of hundreds of physical machines and virtual machines, fully automatic configuration of large host pools, easy to adapt and adjust the deployment model, greatly reduces the human risk of installation and deployment, orchestration service adopts a perceptual visual orchestration method, through a visual graphical interface, See is what you get to plan and build cloud services required by business systems.
During the installation of the private cloud system, after the network environment has been checked and the node's network access is normal, the cloud environment deployment can be completed according to four simple steps:
1. Install the operating system: Install the basic operating system for the physical node.
2. Environment and network initialization: configure relevant operating parameters in the physical environment.
3. Installation and configuration of basic components: Install the basic components of cloud infrastructure and complete the integrated configuration of software and hardware.
4. Cloud service platform installation and configuration: install cloud service components and complete cloud service related configuration.
Cloud environment deployment visualization
The rapid and automated deployment of the new-generation private cloud of Easy Cloud not only has the characteristics of simplicity, accuracy, efficiency, and labor-saving, but also shortens the time for introducing technology and innovation, reduces the labor cost of design, procurement, and construction of hardware and software platforms, and is fast Realize the improvement of resource utilization and reuse rate, automatically allocate and recycle resources, and reduce many things that take days or even weeks to complete into hours or even minutes. In addition, the new-generation private cloud of Yijiexingyun also supports smooth upgrades and online expansion of the cloud platform. Newly added server nodes can be added to the resource pool online without affecting the use of the system.
4 advantages of integrated installation and deployment of a new generation of private cloud
Based on a distributed micro-service architecture, Yijiexing Cloud's new-generation private cloud has micro-serviced platform software and has four major advantages in installation and deployment: standardization, automation, visualization, and integration.
Standardization: Support the automatic discovery and configuration of physical hosts of multiple models and configurations, and quickly complete the construction of a cloud computing environment at the hour level, and achieve one-step cloud access; different types of resource pools, standardized processes, one-click deployment, standardized installation and deployment processes, 0 learning cost.
Automation: The installation and deployment process does not require manual background intervention, fully automated service installation and configuration; automatic expansion pre-checks, display expansion progress, expansion operation is simple and intuitive, business does not stop during expansion, supports high-performance business requirements, and quickly completes adding nodes to the cluster.
Visualization: The operation process is friendly and simple, which significantly saves deployment time and cost and reduces the probability of errors; the graphical interface automatically configures and checks, displays the deployment progress, and the deployment process is friendly and efficient.
Integration: One-stop installation and deployment of the entire cloud computing platform, node hardware configuration at a glance, automatic detection of network connection, and real-time control of node operating status.
Case: Automated deployment of Jiangsu Rural Credit Cloud Platform to achieve light operation and maintenance
Through the integration and coordination of the overall architecture of the cloud platform and the different components, the new generation of private cloud ECS of Yijiexing Cloud completely deconstructs the large-scale distributed architecture, user state, kernel, architecture and protocol stack and hardware, thereby making it It has a high degree of division of labor and coordination in the whole life cycle, and can realize fully automated delivery without human intervention. At the same time, the integrated design of computing, storage, network, operation and maintenance, and operation of the entire platform, with full coordination of software and hardware, meets various scenarios such as automated installation and deployment, automated disk replacement, and node addition or deletion.
For example, Jiangsu Rural Credit Co., Ltd. focuses on Yijiexingyun's new generation of private clouds, driving the next generation of innovative cloud computing. The private cloud of Jiangsu Rural Credit Union is divided into three parts: financial innovation cloud, production operation cloud, and development test cloud. In September 2017, the first resource pool of the Jiangsu Rural Credit Cooperative Private Cloud was put into use, the deployment of the cloud environment was completed in minutes, and the first cloud service, the mutual gold platform, was launched.
After completion, the Jiangsu Rural Credit Cloud Platform has the capabilities of large-scale deployment, online expansion and automatic elastic scaling, and supports the expansion of IaaS+ and PaaS functions such as databases, big data, and containers. At the same time, it simplifies the way of application deployment. You can install and quickly deploy common resources by clicking on the resource icons in the market. The platform also provides application automation deployment, which organizes resources through application automation and orchestration for rapid implementation Preparation for application development.
Through the micro-services and integrated design of the cloud platform, the new generation of private cloud of Yijiexing Cloud can bring enterprise users a consumer-level experience like a public cloud. It can not only realize "turnkey projects" from delivery, operation and maintenance, and upgrades. , To help customers continuously improve the operation and maintenance capabilities of the cloud platform, and bring system stability, safety and efficiency improvements in a light operation and maintenance way.
