Abstract

The invention provides a system for realizing software-defined storage based on a virtual machine, which comprises two storage systems, and is characterized in that the two storage systems form clusters mutually acting as a primary cluster and a standby cluster through a local area network; each storage system comprises an embedded system, an x86 virtual machine and an x86 host; and the embedded system is installed in the x86 virtual machine, and x86 virtual machine provides a storage service by using a hard disk of the x86 host at which the x86 virtual machine is located, and the embedded system manages the storage. According to the invention, a storage solution is provided through integrating general software and hardware technologies. Meanwhile, the system possesses main characteristics of a commercial storage solution, thereby finally enabling the system to undertake storage services in a cloud environment. The system provided by the invention can build an efficient software-defined storage environment by relying on open-source free software and a general x86 hardware platform, and can effectively improve the utilization ratio of computing resources of the x86 host.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of storage services, in particular to a system for implementing software-defined storage based on virtual machines, especially a technical solution for providing storage services in a cloud environment. Background technique [0002] In the existing storage solutions for cloud environments, there are already various commercial software-defined storage solutions, but these solutions all have one thing in common, that is, they are all relatively closed solutions built with dedicated equipment. This causes the prior art to have the following deficiencies: [0003] 1. Rely on the manufacturer. Once a certain vendor's storage solution is adopted, the future expansion and improvement of this solution will require the support of the vendor. [0004] 2. The cost is too high. Due to the use of special equipment, the R&D and manufacturing costs of the equipment itself will be relatively high. Coupled with the binding ...
