Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of application management, and in particular relates to a unified application store implementation system. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of virtualization and containerization technologies, virtual machines and containers have become an important part of modern computing infrastructure. The deployment environment (virtual machine environment, container environment) has changed from a single existence to a mixed existence. With the advent of information innovation, the operating system has also ushered in the transformation and coexistence of X86 architecture to ARM architecture. Therefore, with the diversity of these deployment environments and system architectures, the management of application installation media will usher in a qualitative challenge.

[0003] Currently, applications in virtual machines and container environments are usually managed through independent application stores or repositories. For example, applications in virtual machine environments may be published and distributed through the application markets or repositories of their respective virtualization platforms (such as KVM and VMware), while containerized images are usually managed through Docker Hub or other container image repositories. For different architectures, different application installation media are independently divided into X86 architecture and ARM architecture. This diverse management method brings many problems:

[0004] Diversity of application installation media: Different environments and architectures use different installation media, which places high demands on developers. They need to master different package management tools and technologies, and maintain multiple copies, which causes the maintenance cost of the installation media to increase exponentially.

[0005] Complexity of application management: Users and system administrators need to search, download, and update applications in the application stores of different platforms, which adds additional management burden.

[0006] Compatibility and adaptation issues: Different virtual machines and container environments have different requirements for applications. Developers need to develop and maintain different versions of applications for each platform, which increases development costs and complexity.

[0007] Inconsistency in updates and maintenance: The application update mechanisms of different platforms are inconsistent, making it difficult for users to obtain the latest versions and security patches of all applications in a timely manner, posing security risks.

[0008] These problems not only affect the user experience, but also increase the workload of developers and system administrators. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a solution to solve the complexity of application installation media caused by the diversity of deployment environments and system architectures and achieve unified management. Summary of the invention

[0009] In response to the above problems, the present invention proposes a unified application store implementation system, which uses a unified application installation medium to meet the application installation, deployment, and management of different environments (virtual machine environment, container environment) and different operating system architectures (X86, ARM), so that users can easily manage an installation medium and reduce the maintenance cost of the installation medium.

[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention discloses a unified application store implementation system, including: a management terminal, an application store, a support component and a runtime environment;

[0019] storing the application installation medium;

[0020] Store application release record data;

[0021] The runtime environment is used to:

[0022] Provides multiple runtime environments for applications.

[0023] As a further improvement of the present invention, the application installation medium is developed based on Golang template syntax.

[0024] As a further improvement of the present invention, the application installation medium is neither bound to a deployment environment nor to an operating system architecture.

[0025] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support component includes a database and a shared storage;

[0026] The database is used to store application release record data;

[0030] As a further improvement of the present invention, a variety of runtime environments are provided for applications, including virtual machines, public clouds and private clouds.

[0031] As a further improvement of the present invention, the application store is also used for application uninstallation, application upgrade, application rollback and application management.
