Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of simulation environment construction, and in particular relates to a cloud-native-based simulation environment construction method, device, medium and equipment. Background Art

[0002] When developing and deploying an application, the actual environment where the application is deployed and run is the production environment. In the production environment, users can directly interact with the application. To test the application's functionality and stability, developers usually need to build a mirror environment that is consistent with the production environment. Developers test the application's performance, functionality, and stability in the mirror environment. To ensure test accuracy, network traffic between the production environment and users also needs to be connected to the mirror environment.

[0003] With the continuous development and improvement of cloud-native concepts and systems, the new generation of infrastructure is gradually transforming to a cloud-native environment. The cloud-native environment can provide programmable infrastructure management services including computing power, network, storage, etc. Therefore, some R&D personnel deploy the production environment of the application in the K8S environment. The application deployed in the production environment in the K8S environment uses a switch or router to connect to the external gateway device to receive user requests and real traffic data. Usually, a mirror port is set on the switch or router. Through the mirror port function, user requests and real production traffic are copied 1:1 to the mirror environment at the network layer request access point.

[0004] However, setting up mirrored ports on switches or routers is costly. Due to the unique characteristics of mirrored environments, resource utilization is low, idle rates are high, and resources are wasted. Furthermore, this requires operation across the entire service, including gateway devices in the data center, which carries high risks and wide-ranging impacts. Therefore, a lower-cost, lower-risk approach to building a cloud-native mirrored environment is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0061] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0062] To further illustrate the technical means and effects employed by the present invention to achieve its intended objectives, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. In the following description, different references to "one embodiment" or "embodiment" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, specific features, structures, or characteristics of one or more embodiments may be combined in any suitable manner.

[0063] In view of the problem that the existing cloud-native mirror environment construction method has high cost and high risk in building a simulation environment, the embodiment of the present application provides a cloud-native simulation environment construction method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0064] 102: Deploy a first service network platform on the first K8S cluster where the source production application is located, and obtain a host list corresponding to a first gateway entry component in the first service network platform;

[0065] 104: Determine network connection information between the first K8S cluster and the gateway device, and configure the first gateway entry component based on the network connection information and the host list so that the first gateway entry component receives traffic data having a host name in the host list from the gateway device;

[0066] 106: Determine a network connection mode of the mirror application based on the operating environment of the mirror application corresponding to the source production application, and configure network connection components of the mirror application according to the network connection mode of the mirror application;

[0067] 108: Determine a service host name and a target production application corresponding to a first virtual service component in a first service network platform, configure the first virtual service component based on the network connection component, the service host name, and the target production application, route traffic data with the service host name to the target production application based on the configured first virtual service component, and route traffic data with the service host name to a target mirror application corresponding to the target production application based on the configured first virtual service component and the network connection component;

[0068] 110: Obtain a simulation environment based on the mirror application corresponding to the source production application, the configured first gateway entry component, the first virtual service component, and the network connection component.

[0069] When developing an application in the IT industry, it is usually necessary to build a simulation environment that corresponds to the application's actual production environment, also known as a mirror application environment. The mirror application environment requires the introduction of actual traffic data from the production environment. Through completely realistic production traffic and user behavior, the system can be functionally verified, stress-tested, and anomaly reproduced.

[0070] When cloud-native environments, especially K8S (Kubernetes), are widely used, many developers build production applications in K8S's cloud-native environment. The mirror applications corresponding to production applications can be built in K8S's cloud-native environment or in traditional physical machines or virtual machines. Regardless of whether the mirror environment is built in a cloud-native environment or a virtual machine environment, the real production traffic and request behavior are copied 1:1 to the mirror environment at the network layer request access point by performing port mirroring on the switch or router. For example, Figure 2aThis method requires special processing of switches or routers, resulting in high costs. Due to the characteristics of the simulation environment, the switches or routers have high idle rates, wasting resources. Furthermore, since operations are based on gateway devices across the entire service and even the computer room, this approach carries high risks and has a wide impact. Furthermore, it can only mirror all traffic on a specific port. If management of a specific application is required, a dedicated port is required. In other words, only Layer 4 mirroring is possible.

[0071] Therefore, this application proposes a cloud-native-based simulation environment construction method to achieve traffic mirroring through component configuration.

[0072] The source production application's operating environment uses a cloud-native environment (built on K8S). Leveraging environmental isolation and container features, a simulation environment can be flexibly constructed on demand, reducing construction costs, increasing efficiency, and reducing difficulty. Furthermore, due to the environmental isolation of containers, a set of underlying resources can be used to adapt to a variety of applications deployed in different environments. Mirror applications can be built in a cloud-native environment or on a virtual machine. After building the application environment, the network environment must be deployed to implement core mirroring functions such as traffic mirroring, traffic management, and response suppression. Traffic mirroring is implemented using a network platform (Istio): traffic is replicated 1:1 at the ingress network layer. This way, the simulation environment obtains traffic and behavior consistent with real-time production, achieving the simulation purpose.

[0073] Deploy a first network platform on the first Kubernetes cluster where the production application resides, for example, using Istio. The first network platform is responsible for handling communication between microservices. Configure the first gateway entry component in the first network platform so that it receives traffic data from external gateway devices. The gateway entry component (Gateway) is a key component in the Istio service mesh, responsible for processing external traffic and serving as the entry point for all inbound traffic (external requests) in the entire cluster. Typically, many virtual service components are deployed on a network platform. Each virtual service component corresponds to one or more service hostnames and one or more routing objects. The virtual service component routes traffic data corresponding to the service hostname to the corresponding routing object. Therefore, the first gateway entry component corresponds to a host list that records the service hostnames corresponding to all virtual service components. When the first gateway entry component receives traffic data from a gateway device with a service hostname in the host list, it flows the traffic data into the cluster. In Istio, a virtual service component describes a set of traffic routing rules for a specific service. It allows users to fine-tune traffic between services, such as routing, load balancing, and fault injection, based on the traffic characteristics of protocols such as HTTP / TCP / TLS.

[0074] Some mirror applications are built in a cloud-native environment, and some mirror applications are built on virtual machines. Therefore, according to the operating environment of the mirror application, the corresponding network connection components are deployed, and the first virtual component in the first network platform is configured according to the deployed network connection components, so that the first virtual component routes the data traffic with the service host name to the network connection component, and then routes it to the target mirror application through the network connection component. At the same time, the first virtual component also routes the traffic data with the service host name to the target production application.

[0075] For example, the service network platform of this application is implemented using Istio, and a cloud-native simulation environment is built using K8S+Istio. Istio uses version 1.16 and above, and K8S uses version 1.25 and above.

[0076] The technical solution of this application introduces real production traffic while preventing responses generated by real traffic from being returned to users in the simulated environment. Istio's gateway's mirroring mode natively supports traffic suppression. Responses to requests sent by mirrored applications are discarded directly at the network layer. This eliminates the need to configure policies on switches / routers or gateway hosts to discard unnecessary responses.

[0077] In one embodiment, if more refined traffic suppression is required, the traffic management mechanism of Istio itself can be used to configure mirror traffic management in VirtureService to achieve more refined traffic suppression and traffic isolation.

[0078] This application uses a cloud-native network layer to shield connections between external and internal services, enabling flexible use for both software developers and users. Applications are applied when needed, and there's no need to release them, requiring only maintenance of the environment configuration. This can also be further integrated with hybrid deployment solutions to further improve resource utilization, creating a more manageable, maintainable, cost-effective, and flexible production simulation environment. This environment is suitable for applications in production verification, stress testing, and business scenarios that are sensitive to potential impacts on the production environment.

[0079] This application can mirror traffic by interface, enabling more granular simulation scheme design and management. Single-interface single instance, multiple-interface multiple instances, and multiple combinations make simulation support more flexible and extensive.

[0080] The production applications of this application include but are not limited to financial management applications, public service applications, digital medical service applications, insurance business applications, etc. The cloud-native simulation environment construction method includes but is not limited to financial management, public services, digital medical, and insurance business application scenarios.

[0081] Taking insurance business applications as an example, the production application of the insurance business is built on the first K8S cluster, and the mirror application of the insurance business is built on the second K8S cluster. Through the deployment and configuration of the first network platform and network connection components, the traffic data can be transmitted to the production application and mirror application of the insurance business respectively at the network layer, reducing the cost and risk of building the simulation environment.

[0082] The cloud-native-based simulation environment construction method provided by the present application, compared with the existing technology, deploys a first network platform in the operating environment where the source production application is located, configures the first gateway entry component of the first network platform, receives the traffic data of the gateway device through the first gateway entry component, determines the network connection component corresponding to the mirror application according to the operating environment where the mirror application is located, configures the network connection component, and configures the first virtual service component in the first network platform according to the network connection component, so that the first virtual service component routes the data traffic with the service host name to the target production application, and transmits the traffic data with the service host name to the target mirror application through the first virtual service component and the network connection component. The traffic mirroring is realized through software configuration, which reduces the hardware cost of routing / switching facilities and the network risk of the system. There is no need to maintain complex network equipment, which further reduces the investment in labor costs. The elastic characteristics of cloud native are utilized, and hybrid deployment and other solutions are added to improve resource utilization.

[0083] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the cloud-native-based simulation environment construction method also includes:

[0084] 302: When the operating environment of the mirror application corresponding to the source production application is a K8S environment, and the mirror application belongs to the second K8S cluster, determine that the network connection mode of the mirror application is the first heterogeneous cluster connection mode, and deploy a second service network platform on the second K8S cluster;

[0085] 304: Using the first gateway entry component as an external gateway device for a second gateway entry component in the second service network platform, using the host list corresponding to the first gateway entry component as the host list of the second gateway entry component, and configuring the second gateway component so that the second gateway entry component receives traffic data having host names in the host list from the first gateway entry component;

[0086] 306: Using the service host name as the name of the traffic data received by the second virtual service component, using the second gateway entry component as the matching gateway of the second virtual service component, and using the target mirror application as the routing object of the second virtual service component, the second virtual service component is configured to route the traffic data with the service host name to the target mirror application.

[0087] 308: Determine the image name and image subset name corresponding to the target image application in the preset application mapping table. Based on the image name and image subset name, configure the second destination rule component in the second service network platform to transmit the traffic data with the service host name to the target image application according to the path in the second destination rule component.

[0088] 310: Using the service host name as the name of the traffic data received by the first virtual service component, using the first gateway entry component as the matching gateway of the first virtual service component, using the second gateway entry component and the target production application as routing objects of the first virtual service component, configuring the first virtual service component to route the traffic data with the service host name to the second gateway entry component and the target production application;

[0089] 312: In the preset application mapping table, determine the production name and production subset name corresponding to the target production application, and based on the production name and production subset name, configure the first destination rule component in the first service network platform so that the traffic data with the service host name is transmitted to the target production application according to the path in the first destination rule component.

[0090] Specifically, such as Figure 2b As shown, when the source production application and its corresponding mirror application belong to different K8S clusters, a second network platform is deployed in the K8S cluster where the mirror application is located, and the second gateway entry component, the second virtual service component and the second destination rule in the second network platform are configured so that the second gateway entry component receives traffic data from the first gateway entry component, the second virtual service component routes the traffic data with the service host name in the traffic data received by the second gateway entry component to the target mirror application, and the second destination rule component transmits the traffic data with the service host name to the target mirror application through the configured path.

[0091] The first virtual service component selects traffic data corresponding to the service hostname of the first virtual service component from all traffic data received by the first gateway entry component and routes it to the target production application and the second gateway entry component. The first destination rule component transmits the traffic data to the target production application based on the path to the target production application. Typically, the first network platform deploys many first virtual service components with different configuration information. A virtual service component can correspond to one or more service hostnames and one or more routing objects.

[0092] For example, the service host name of the first virtual service component is example.com, and the target production application is example-service, that is, the routing object of the first virtual service component is example-service and the second gateway entry component. The first virtual service component routes the traffic data named example.com received by the first gateway entry component to the example-service service and the second gateway entry component.

[0093] The second gateway entry component receives traffic named example.com from the first gateway entry component, and the second virtual service group routes the traffic named example.com to the target mirror application M-example-service.

[0097] 406: Use the service host name as the name of the traffic data received by the third virtual service component, use the east-west gateway entry component as the matching gateway of the third virtual service component, use the target image application as the routing object of the third virtual service component, configure the third virtual service component, and route the traffic data with the service host name to the target image application;

[0098] 408: Determine the image name and image subset name corresponding to the target image application in the preset application mapping table, and configure the third destination rule component based on the image name and image subset name so that traffic data with the service host name is transmitted to the target image application according to the path in the third destination rule component;

[0099] 410: Using the service host name as the name of the traffic data received by the first virtual service component, using the first gateway entry component as the matching gateway of the first virtual service component, using the workgroup component and the target production application as routing objects of the first virtual service component, and configuring the first virtual service component to route the traffic data with the service host name to the workgroup component and the target production application;

[0100] 412: In the preset application mapping table, determine the production name and production subset name corresponding to the target production application, and based on the production name and production subset name, configure the first destination rule component in the first service network platform so that the traffic data with the service host name is transmitted to the target production application according to the path in the first destination rule component.

[0101] Specifically, such as Figure 2c As shown, when the source production application is in a cloud-native environment and the mirror application is in a virtual machine, a workgroup component, an east-west gateway entry component, a third virtual service component, and a third destination rule component are deployed on the first network platform for configuration. To avoid mutual interference between the cloud-native environment and the virtual machine, the workgroup component is deployed. The first virtual service routes traffic data with a service host name to the workgroup component. The east-west gateway entry component receives traffic data from the first gateway entry component through the workgroup component. The third virtual service component routes traffic data with a service host name in the traffic data received by the east-west gateway entry component to the target mirror application. The third destination rule component transmits traffic data with a service host name to the target mirror application through the configured path.

[0102] The first virtual service component selects traffic data corresponding to the service hostname of the first virtual service component from all traffic data received by the first gateway ingress component and routes it to the target production application and workgroup component. The first destination rule component transmits the traffic data to the target production application based on the path to the target production application. Typically, the first network platform deploys many first virtual service components with different configuration information.

[0103] For example, the service host name of the first virtual service component is example.com, and the target production application is example-service, that is, the routing object of the first virtual service component is example-service and the workgroup component. The first virtual service component routes the traffic data named example.com received by the first gateway entry component to the example-service service and the workgroup component.

[0104] The east-west gateway entry component receives traffic data named example.com from the first gateway entry component through the work group, and the third virtual service group routes the traffic data named example.com to the target mirror application M-example-service.

[0105] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the cloud-native-based simulation environment construction method also includes:

[0106] 502: When the operating environment of the mirror application corresponding to the source production application is a K8S environment, and the mirror application belongs to the first K8S cluster, the network connection mode of the mirror application is determined to be the same-cluster connection mode, and there is no need to deploy the network connection of the mirror application;

[0107] 504: Using the service host name as the name of the traffic data received by the first virtual service component, using the first gateway entry component as the matching gateway of the first virtual service component, using the target production application and the target mirror application as routing objects of the first virtual service component, and configuring the first virtual service component so that the traffic data with the service host name is routed to the target production application and the target mirror application;

[0108] 506: In the preset application mapping table, determine the production name and production subset name corresponding to the target production application and the mirror name and mirror subset name corresponding to the target mirror application, and based on the production name, production subset name, mirror name and mirror subset name, configure the first destination rule component in the first service network platform so that the traffic data with the service host name is transmitted to the target production application and the target mirror application according to the path in the first destination rule component.

[0109] Specifically, such as Figure 2d As shown, when the source production application and its corresponding mirror application belong to the same K8S cluster, there is no need to deploy other network connection components. It is only necessary to configure the routing object of the first virtual service component in the first network platform to the target production application and its corresponding target mirror application. The other configuration information of the first virtual service component is the same as the configuration under other methods. The first virtual service component selects the traffic data corresponding to the service host name of the first virtual service component from all the traffic data received by the first gateway entry component and routes it to the target production application and the target mirror application. Usually, the first network platform deploys many first virtual service components with different configuration information. The first destination rule component transmits the traffic data to the target production application and the target mirror application according to the path of the target production application and the target mirror application.

[0110] For example, the service host name of the first virtual service component is example.com, the target production application is example-service, and the target mirror application is M-example-service. That is, the routing objects of the first virtual service component are example-service and M-example-service. The first virtual service component routes the traffic data named example.com received by the first gateway entry component to the example-service service and M-example-service.

[0111] In one embodiment, the operating environment where the first K8S cluster is located is deployed with a management component and a load balancer. The management component monitors the health status of the simulation environment. When it is detected that the simulation environment is in an abnormal state, a stop message is sent to the first gateway entry component and a start message is sent to the load balancer to stop the first gateway entry component from transmitting traffic data to the simulation environment. The traffic data of the gateway device is transmitted to the target production application based on the load balancer.

[0112] Specifically, the health status of the simulation environment is monitored through the management component deployed in the operating environment where the first K8S cluster is located. When it is detected that the simulation environment is in an abnormal state, there is no need to send traffic data to the simulation environment. The management component sends a stop message to the first gateway entry component. The first gateway entry component stops working according to the stop message and no longer transmits traffic data to the simulation environment. At the same time, the management component also sends a startup message to the load balancer deployed in the operating environment, and transmits the traffic data of the external gateway device to the first K8S cluster through the load balancer.

[0113] Furthermore, as a response to the above Figure 1 The implementation of the method shown, such as Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cloud-native-based simulation environment construction device, including:
