The Application Of Virtualization Technology In Tianjin Port Container Terminal

With the development of domestic IT applications, the enterprise server scale is growing, at the same time, The demand on efficiency and cost savings are increasing. With the demand of building a stable, efficient and intensive data center, virtualization technology is bound to become popular, because the virtualization technology can improve server utilization through server virtualization, multiple logical hosts are virtualed on a single physical server equipment,That’s can reduce the overall cost of application deployment.Virtualization is a computer component running on the basis of virtualization rather than the reality. Virtualization technology can expand the capacity of the hardware, simply the process of software re-configuration. The virtualization technology of CPU can make a single CPU parallel simulation of multi-CPU, it allow multiple operating systems running on a platform, and applications can run independently of each other without interaction, thus can improve the computer’s efficiency apparently.This subject explores the feasible virtual solution with low cost and high performance that suitable for small and medium enterprise’s production environment, and use self-developed software extensions, monitoring and management of virtual machine, snapshot scheduling, text messaging alarm functions. It provides innovative solutions to save IT costs for small and medium-sized enterprise and popularize the application of virtualization. The scheme adopts the free version of virtualization software and cheap hardware; it is combined with the self-development software and implemented with a very low cost. We choose VMware ESXi4free version as the Main virtual software.It is realized monitoring on machine condition, noticing early warning informations, realizing automatic functions such as snapshots, and so on, these all realized through the software development such as API interface. The virtual machine management adopts free version such as vSphere, LisSyl, Remote Desktops, FileZilla ftp. We still using the original HA software as the soft ware that realizing high-availability solutions.As to the hardware, we will upgrade the old server, increase the CPU and expand the computing power, what else,we even adopt low rotatio speed sata with cheap high-capacity to expand capacity as the low-cost solutions.This subject solves the container terminal mailbox, software firewalls, databases and virtual machine monitoring application requirements through four modules of the virtualization application systems.In order to find suitable solution low-cost, effectiveness, reliability, durability and economy etc for the production environment of small and medium-sized enterprise.The subject use variety technologyies of software development, combine with various modules of the virtual application, realize the extending of application requirements. Virtual machine monitor module innovation extends the functionality of the virtual machine operation and maintenance, achieved a very timely warning of the SMS notification, which greatly improved fault response speed and reduce the pressure of the administrator’s inspection, and made a very well effect.This subject provides a strong proof for the solution with theory and practice; it has unique Guiding significance on reducing the costs of virtual application scheme and promoting the application of virtual technology.
