CONTROL SERVER, SERVICE-PROVIDING SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF PROVIDING A VIRTUAL INFRASTRUCTURE

摘要

A virtual infrastructure is hierarchically configured, thereby providing a variety of functions/services. A service-providing system includes a control server, and physical resources controlled by the control server. The control server has a virtual device providing unit for providing at least one virtual object for controlling a physical resource, and a virtual infrastructure providing unit capable of providing a virtual infrastructure configured using at least one virtual object provided by the virtual device providing unit as a virtual object, and the virtual infrastructure providing unit configures a virtual infrastructure using the virtual objects provided by the virtual infrastructure providing unit, and is capable of providing the virtual infrastructure as a virtual object.
