UNIFIED DATACENTER STORAGE MODEL

摘要

Modeling an application deployed in a distributed system. The method includes accessing an infrastructure model of a distributed system. The infrastructure model includes a model of specific physical hardware including unique identifiers for each piece of hardware and an identification of interconnections of the physical hardware. The method further includes accessing an application model for an application. The application model defines the components that make up the application and how the components are to be deployed. The method further includes deploying the application in the distributed system by deploying elements of the application on hardware modeled in the infrastructure model. The method further includes using the infrastructure model and the application model deployment creating a deployment model defining how the application is deployed on the physical hardware.

1. In a computing environment, a method of modeling an application deployed in a distributed system, the method comprising:
accessing an infrastructure model of a distributed system, wherein the infrastructure model comprises a model of specific physical hardware including unique identifiers for each piece of actual existing hardware and an identification of interconnections of the physical hardware; accessing an application model for an application, the application model defining the components that make up the application and how the components are to be deployed; and using the infrastructure model and the application model creating a deployment model defining how the application is deployed on the physical hardware.
