Problems solved by technology

[0009] Therefore, when these conventional technologies are used as a method of improving the performance of the storage device in response to a proportional increase in the number of hosts, unnecessary consumption of storage resources such as CPU (Central Processing Unit) and memory occurs.
As a result, there is a problem that the execution of the copy itself takes a corresponding amount of time, which adversely affects the business using the storage device.

Embodiment Construction

[0032] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0033] (1) Structure of the hybrid cloud system based on this embodiment

[0034] (1-1) Hardware structure of hybrid cloud system

[0035] exist figure 1 Among them, 1 represents the hybrid cloud system of this embodiment as a whole. The hybrid cloud system 1 is a cloud system formed by combining a host 3 of a public cloud 2 and a storage device 5 of a local deployment 4 .

[0036] In this hybrid cloud system 1 , a host 3 and a storage device 5 are connected via a network 6 and an I / O (Input / Output) port 8 of a switch 7 . In addition, the host 3 is also connected to the storage auto-scaling processing device 10 of the local deployment 4 via the network 6 , the I / O port 8 and the mirroring port 9 of the switch 7 in sequence.

[0037] The host computer 3 is an information processing device having information processing resources such as a CPU and a memory,...

Abstract

An information processing apparatus and method capable of minimizing influences affecting business activities and dynamically changing the configuration of a storage apparatus in response to scale-out of hosts are proposed. The information processing apparatus for managing the configuration of the storage apparatus which constitutes a hybrid cloud system is provided with a data acquisition unit and a data copy management unit; and if the data acquisition unit detects the scale-out of the hosts and determines that a first volume, which stores data from the hosts, in the storage apparatus has a high load, the data acquisition unit issues an instruction to the data copy management unit to copy the data and the data copy management unit issues an instruction to the storage apparatus, in accordance with the instruction from the data acquisition unit, to copy the data, regarding which the access frequency from each host is high, to a second volume and to copy the data, regarding which the access frequency from a specified host is high, to a third volume.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device and method, for example, an information processing device and method preferably applied to a hybrid cloud system. Background technique [0002] In recent years, hybrid cloud has attracted much attention. A hybrid cloud is a cloud system that combines public clouds, private clouds, and on-premises deployments. For example, the host is a server device in a public cloud, and the storage device is deployed on-premises, and initial costs can be suppressed while maintaining data security. [0003] prior art literature [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2016-103113 [0005] However, in general, the public cloud is equipped with an auto-scaling function that increases or decreases the number of cloud servers according to the server load. Therefore, it is also required on the storage device side to respond to the dynamic scaling up / down of cloud servers. Improve perform...
