Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current cloud platforms lack an efficient mechanism for transferring resources across projects, requiring users to perform offline data copying, which is inefficient and time-consuming.
Innovation Solution
A cloud platform resource cross-project transfer method and system that allows online transfer of resources by generating a transfer request, creating a transfer ID and authentication key, performing hash operations for encryption, and updating resource status in a database.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If offline data copying is used for resource transfer, then security is maintained, but transfer efficiency and user productivity deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical offline data copying process with an automated online resource transfer mechanism. The system uses programmatic operations to transfer cloud platform resources directly between projects through database operations and authentication verification, eliminating the need for manual data copying and significantly improving transfer efficiency.
2Productivity
If online resource transfer is implemented, then transfer efficiency improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the resource transfer process into distinct modular components: transfer request reception, authentication key generation, hash operation execution, database structure body writing, and transfer record generation. Each module handles a specific aspect of the transfer process, making the system easier to manage and maintain despite the increased functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a transfer structure body as an intermediary data structure that mediates between the transfer request and the actual resource transfer. This structure body contains all necessary transfer information and serves as a standardized interface for processing transfers, reducing system complexity by providing a uniform handling mechanism.
3Reliability
If authentication mechanisms are added for secure transfer, then security improves, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service authentication where the system automatically generates authentication keys and performs hash operations without requiring manual intervention. The authentication mechanism serves itself by automatically verifying credentials and managing security protocols, maintaining high security while keeping operations simple for users.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms security parameters into operational parameters by converting authentication requirements into automated system actions. The authentication key and hash values are generated and verified as automatic parameters in the transfer process, making security verification as simple as providing the transfer ID without adding operational complexity for users.
4Adaptability or versatility
If resource membership relation is fixed to one project, then resource management simplicity is maintained, but cross-project collaboration capability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the resource membership relation dynamic by allowing resources to be transferred between projects through the transfer mechanism. Resources are no longer statically bound to a single project but can dynamically change their project affiliation through authenticated transfer operations, enabling cross-project collaboration while maintaining clear ownership tracking through the transfer structure body.
Data Source
AI summary
The present disclosure discloses a cloud platform resource cross-project transfer method and system, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: generating a slot position and an authentication key for a resource to be transferred based on a transfer request; generating a transfer Identity (ID) of the resource to be transferred, acquiring a project ID where the resource to be transferred is located based on a resource ID, constructing a transfer structure body, and writing the transfer structure body into a database; generating a transfer record of the transfer structure body in the database, and setting a resource status of the resource to be transferred as waiting for transfer in the transfer record; and returning the transfer ID, the authentication key, a transfer description, and the resource ID to a transfer user based on the transfer request.
