Description

Technical Field

[0002] A configuration management database (CMDB) is a database that stores configuration records throughout its entire life cycle. The core content of the configuration management database is the application configuration model, which is defined by configuration items (CI). Configuration items have attribute information and relationship information (called configuration item relationships) and include a logical resource layer and a business application layer.

[0003] In the prior art, a commonly used method for constructing an application configuration model is to reflect all logical resource layers with configuration items. The level and depth of configuration management are reflected in the classification of configuration items. For example, configuration items are classified according to the categories of the logical resource layers, thereby constructing an application configuration model including the classified configuration items.

[0004] However, the application configuration model constructed using the above method is prone to cause a fault between the logical resource layer and the business application layer. The possibility of a fault between the business application layer and the logical resource layer needs to be maintained manually, resulting in a technical problem of high maintenance costs.

[0054] The above drawings show clear embodiments of the present disclosure, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way, but to illustrate the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0055] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0056] The nouns involved in the embodiments of the present disclosure are explained as follows:

[0057] Application configuration model: refers to the basic software and hardware resources involved in production operations and the relationships between them, including the business application layer and the logical resource layer.

[0058] Configuration item: also known as "configuration instance", is a service object, which refers to assets, human resources, service components or other logical resources under the control of configuration management, including software, hardware, various documents, operating systems, various configuration parameters of business systems, etc., such as: middleware, host, computer room, switch, etc.

[0059] Attribute information of configuration items: also known as configuration attributes. Attribute information refers to the content used to describe the configuration items. A configuration item can be described by multiple dimensions of content (or attributes).

[0060] Configuration item relationship: It can be called configuration relationship, which refers to the connection between configuration items, characterizing the association between configuration items, and describing how configuration items work together to provide services. There are various relationships between configuration items in the configuration management database, such as a fiber optic switch connecting several disk arrays, a program using the module of another program, etc.

[0061] Currently, the application configuration models of common operation and maintenance platforms focus on the resource management of the logical resource layer (i.e., the basic resource layer). Most of them are relatively simple application configuration models, which cannot well represent the service call relationship between applications. The relationship between the business application layer and the logical resource layer is not complete, which leads to the phenomenon of "faults" between the business application layer and the logical resource layer. They need to be maintained and managed manually, resulting in technical problems such as high consumption of human resources and costs.

[0062] In order to avoid the above-mentioned technical problems, the inventors of the present invention, through creative work, have obtained the inventive concept of the present invention: constructing an application configuration model centered on the business application layer, and the business application layer and the logical resource layer in the established application configuration model are independent and "continuous".

[0063] The technical solution of the present invention and how the technical solution of the present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0064] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a method for constructing an application configuration model according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0066] S101: Determine each configuration item according to a pre-stored data source, each configuration item having corresponding attribute information.

[0067] The pre-stored data sources include: management data, basic resource data corresponding to the logical resource layer, and application operation and maintenance data corresponding to the business application layer.

[0068] Exemplarily, the executing entity of this embodiment may be a construction device of the application configuration model (hereinafter referred to as the construction device), and the construction device may be a server (a cloud server or a local server), a terminal device, a processor, or a chip, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0069] It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, the data of multiple dimensions in the pre-stored data source, such as the management data, basic resource data, and application operation and maintenance data described above, on the one hand, by using the pre-stored data source including data of different dimensions to determine each configuration item, the determined configuration item can represent the characteristics of more dimensions, that is, the configuration item can be characterized from more dimensions, so that the configuration item has a technical effect of higher richness and reliability; on the other hand, since the pre-stored data source includes application operation and maintenance data, it is equivalent to fully combining the data of the business application layer when determining the configuration item. Therefore, the configuration item can represent the data of the business application layer, and a high degree of fit between the logical resource layer and the business application layer can be achieved, thereby avoiding the "fault" phenomenon between the logical resource layer and the business application layer in the related technology.

[0070] In one example, the pre-stored data source is given priority to data acquired through automatic collection and automatic synchronization; in another example, the pre-stored data source is given priority to information sharing data; in another example, the pre-stored data source is given priority to data with statistical value.

[0071] In some embodiments, multiple configuration items may be determined with the business application layer as the core, for example, multiple configuration items may be determined with application operation and maintenance data as the core.

[0072] For example, the determined configuration items may include: business groups, business systems, application systems, application modules, application services, deployment units, deployment instances, application partitions, application images, application containers, program packages, configuration packages and script files, and the 13 configuration items may include more than 200 items of attribute information.

[0106]

[0107] It is worth noting that the above examples are only used to illustrate the configuration items and their attribute information that may be included in this embodiment, and cannot be understood as a limitation on the content and / or quantity of the configuration items and their attribute information.

[0108] S102: Determine a first association relationship between resources of different types in a logical resource, determine a second association relationship between resources of different types in a logical resource and each configuration item, determine a third association relationship between each configuration item, and generate a configuration item relationship for each configuration item based on the first association relationship, the second association relationship, and the third association relationship.

[0109] In some embodiments, based on S102, different types of resources and configuration item relationships may inherit corresponding types, and associations between different types may also be considered; the interaction between configuration items, logical resource layers, and environments may also be considered.

[0110] Configuration item relationships may include: runs on, accesses, contains, calls (ie, consumes), has (ie, inline), creates, is of type, and so on.

[0111] For example, resources may include different resources represented by different encodings, such as: run (encoded as RunsOn) resources, reference (encoded as Invokes) resources, control (encoded as Contains) resources, (encoded as Consume), code (encoded as Consume) resources, embedded (encoded as Inlines) resources, type Typeis (encoded as) resources, etc. For the specific relationship between these resources and configuration items, please refer to Table 14.

[0113] Serial number coding Configuration item relationships 1 RunsOn Run on (deployed on) 2 Invokes access 3 Contains Include 4 Consume Consumption (call) 5 Inlines Inline (with) 6 Create create 7 Typeis Type is

[0114] For another example, the configuration item relationships for different configuration items can be found in Table 15.

[0115] Table 15 Configuration item relationships of different configuration items

[0116]

[0117]

[0118] It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, by generating various configuration item relationships through different association relationships, each configuration item relationship can more comprehensively, completely and accurately characterize the association relationship between the configuration items, thereby making the constructed application configuration model have a technical effect of higher accuracy and reliability.

[0119] S103: construct an application configuration model according to each configuration item, each attribute information, and each configuration item relationship.

[0120] Exemplarily, when each configuration item, the attribute information corresponding to each configuration item, and the relationship between each configuration item are determined, an application configuration model can be constructed that includes each configuration item, can characterize the attribute information of each configuration item, and can characterize the association relationship between each configuration item.

[0121] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a method for constructing an application configuration model according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0122] like Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0123] S201: Acquire an initial data source to be stored in a configuration management database.

[0124] Among them, the initial data sources include: management data, basic resource data, application operation and maintenance data, and the configuration management database includes the application configuration model.

[0125] It should be understood that the “initial” in the initial data source is used to distinguish it from the pre-stored data source mentioned above, and should not be understood as a limitation on the initial data source.

[0126] Combination Figure 3 It can be seen that the initial data source of this embodiment includes management data, which includes data from the management platform and data from various platforms such as the Internet Fund Market Center (ITA) platform. The management data can specifically be application service directory data, user data, change data, etc.

[0127] The initial data source also includes basic resource data, which includes partition data from the application environment basic data collection platform obtained by the configuration center, business scenarios (such as Figure 3 F5) data shown in, etc.

[0128] The initial data source also includes application operation and maintenance data, which includes delivery data, monitoring data, operation data, process data, logs, etc. from the operation and maintenance platform obtained based on the application configuration library.

[0129] Among them, the methods of collecting initial data sources can mainly include three categories: the first category is automatic collection by scripts, such as automatic collection of basic resource data through scripts; the second category is scheduled automatic synchronization, such as scheduled automatic synchronization of application operation and maintenance data; the third category is manual maintenance, such as manual collection of other application data.

[0130] S202: performing format conversion processing, cleaning processing, and verification processing on the initial data source in sequence to obtain a pre-stored data source stored in the configuration management database.

[0131] Exemplarily, the format conversion process can be understood as follows: different data may have different specifications, and a standard specification can be set in advance, and the non-standard specification data in the initial data source can be format converted so that the non-standard specification data is converted into standard specification data.

[0132] The cleaning process can be understood as: pre-setting data that meets usage requirements and eliminating data that does not meet usage requirements, such as eliminating redundant data and incomplete data.

[0133] Verification processing can be understood as: pre-setting verification rules and eliminating data that does not meet the verification rules. Verification processing can be implemented by combining automatic verification with manual verification. For example, each data in the initial data source is matched with the verification rules by automatic verification, thereby eliminating data that does not meet the verification rules. For data that cannot be eliminated based on matching, manual verification can be used to verify it again.

[0134] It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, by processing the initial data source based on the above method to obtain a pre-stored data source, the efficiency of data processing can be improved, and each data is isolated from each other and does not interfere with each other, so that the processing of the initial data source has the technical effect of effectiveness, stability and efficiency.

[0135] S203: Determine each configuration item according to the pre-stored data source, each configuration item having corresponding attribute information.

[0136] The pre-stored data sources include: management data, basic resource data corresponding to the logical resource layer, and application operation and maintenance data corresponding to the business application layer.

[0137] S204: Determine a first association relationship between resources of different types in the logical resources, determine a second association relationship between resources of different types in the logical resources and each of the configuration items, determine a third association relationship between the configuration items, and generate a configuration item relationship for each configuration item based on the first association relationship, the second association relationship, and the third association relationship.

[0138] For example, the description of S203 and S204 can be found in the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0139] S205: Determine configuration items configured in the business application layer from all configuration items, and construct configuration items representing upstream and downstream relationships of configuration items configured in the business application layer in the business application layer according to attribute information and configuration item relationships of configuration items configured in the business application layer.

[0140] S206: Determine configuration items configured in the logical resource layer from all configuration items, and construct configuration items of upstream and downstream relationships of configuration items configured in the logical resource layer in the logical resource layer according to attribute information of the configuration items configured in the logical resource layer and configuration item relationships.

[0141] S207: Generate an application configuration model according to each configuration item constructed at the business application layer and each configuration item constructed at the logic resource layer.

[0142] For example, Figure 4As shown, in the business application layer, the configuration items constructed include: business grouping, business system, application system, application module, application service, application image, program package, configuration package and script file.

[0143] Among them, the business group has (configuration item relationship) business system; the business system has (configuration item relationship) application system; the application system has (configuration item relationship) application module; the application module has (configuration item relationship) application service; the application module contains (configuration item relationship) program package (program package is managed by artifact warehouse), configuration package and script file; the application module has (configuration item relationship) application image (application image is composed of basic image (including Tomcat, JDK, DB, etc.), basic image is composed of program package (including jar / war, etc.), and application image is managed by image warehouse).

[0144] In the logical resource layer, the configuration items built include: deployment units, deployment instances, application partitions, and application containers.

[0145] Among them, the application modules built in the business application layer are deployed in (configuration item relationship) deployment units, the deployment units include deployment instances, the deployment instances run in (configuration item relationship) application partitions (also called operating systems), and the application partitions run in preset virtual machines (vSphere integrated containers establish an environment for deploying and managing containers in lightweight virtual machines).

[0146] like Figure 4 As shown, the application partition is also deployed with: middleware (including Figure 4 IIS and WAS, etc.), databases (such as Figure 4 Oracle and Sybase, etc.), load balancing (such as Figure 4 Basic configuration resources such as F5VS shown in .

[0147] Among them, PaaS cloud management platform (i.e. Figure 4 The PaaS shown in the figure runs the application container in a virtual resource pool such as a virtual machine according to the scheduling strategy. There is no strong affinity between the application container and the virtual machine. Figure 4 The IaaS shown in Figure 1 manages basic resources such as load balancing and databases.

[0148] The above method generates Figure 4 The application configuration model shown in the , in the cloud architecture (IaaS, PaaS), fully considers the differences between on-cloud and off-cloud, and establishes an independent but not "disconnected" application configuration model on-cloud and off-cloud.

[0149] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the business application layer can collect basic configuration resources such as middleware, database, load balancing, etc. deployed on the application partition through script automatic collection, so as to meet the needs of users to enter an application module name or an application partition IP query in the business application layer to retrieve all other configuration resource instance objects, reducing the manual maintenance costs of configuration administrators and development project teams. In other words, in this embodiment, by constructing application partitions in the logical resource layer, the logical resource layer and the business application layer are closely integrated, avoiding "faults" and reducing manual maintenance costs.

[0153] The second determining unit 502 is used to determine the first association relationship between resources of different types in the logical resources, determine the second association relationship between resources of different types in the logical resources and each of the configuration items, and determine the third association relationship between each of the configuration items.
