Virtual resource sharing method, device and system

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a virtual resource sharing method, device and system. The method comprises receiving resource sharing rules set by a first user, wherein the resource sharing rules comprise the variety and the quantity of virtual resources, which can be provided for at least one other user, and the time range during which the virtual resources can be provided; according to the resource sharing rules, providing the virtual resources to the at least one other user to enable the at least one other user to obtain the use right of the virtual resource. According to the virtual resource sharing method, the executing main body for setting sharing strategies is transferred from an operator to the user, so that multiple users can rapidly and flexibly share the virtual resources, the utilization rate of the virtual resources can be improved, and the cost of the operator can be saved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to communication technologies, and in particular to a virtual resource sharing method, device and system. Background technique [0002] At present, virtual resources are provided by a virtual machine provider, and the virtual machine provider provides basic virtualization devices and a management system for managing these devices. Based on the operating costs and market positioning of virtual machine providers, virtual resource users (such as enterprises or individual users) cannot directly rent virtual resources from virtual machine providers, but operators first lease virtual resources to virtual machine providers. , and then the virtual resource user rents the virtual resource it needs from the operator. Before applying for virtual resources, users of virtual resources need to explain their needs to operators in advance, that is, to formulate rules in advance, and then operators will provide virtual resou...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Since the virtual resources used by each virtual resource user are allocated by the operator after setting up rules according to the user's needs, the method of renting virtual resources is not flexible, which also increases the input cost of the operator

Moreover, after multiple virtual resource users rent virtual resources, the allocated virtual resources may be wasted due to different utilization rates of virtual resources.
