Problems solved by technology

This solution has the following problems: high machine acquisition cost, enterprises always have to purchase and upgrade users' desktop personal computers for necessary but infrequent performance requirements; low machine utilization, in many enterprises, In fact, more than 30% of desktop personal computers are idle at any one time, which causes a great waste of computer resources
That is to say, in the existing blade PC solution, although personal computers are concentrated together as blade PCs, management, maintenance and operation costs are reduced, security is improved, and through the sharing of computer blades among different users It improves the utilization rate of computing resources, and reduces user desktop space occupation, heat generation, noise, etc., but it still has the following disadvantages: in the existing blade PC solutions, in order to

Abstract

The invention discloses a controller for personal computer supply on demand. The controller comprises a machine maintenance device for allocating a computation hardware equipment capable of meeting user's needs from a computation pool including a plurality of remote-boot computer hardware equipments according to user's needs to the hardware equipments; a software maintenance device for preparing software environment applied to the user in a memory pool according to user's needs to software environment, wherein, the machine maintenance device is also used for setting the boot address of the allocated computation hardware equipment as the prepared software environment, and booting the computation hardware equipment with the software environment; and a user input/output processor for switching the input/output of the booted computation hardware equipment to a customer equipment, so as to form a personal computer of the user. The computation hardware equipment is preferably a blade PC. The invention also discloses a system for personal computer supply on demand comprising the controller, and a corresponding method thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of computers, and in particular to an on-demand personal computer provisioning system and method.
