System and method for opening cloud computing service based on user location

The invention relates to a system and a method for opening a cloud computing service according to a user location, in particular to a broadband access server, a cloud service central management server and a cloud service local management server for accessing a user network. Judgment of location, optimal efficiency of cloud service environment, centralized management of cloud service snapshot unit, and deployment of cloud service computing resources to achieve simple and efficient cloud service provision.

For enterprise users who use a large number of PCs for their work, since each computer uses independent hardware and information systems, the work of computer management is quite complicated, including the maintenance and upgrade of hardware devices, and the installation of operating systems. Updates, application system installation and management, and user data backup, resulting in the burden of the company's information management staff and maintenance costs.

Today's information field uses cloud-based services to provide desktop virtualization (Java) to solve the above-mentioned problem of personal computer management. The desktop environment of PC users is stored in the server of the remote cloud service room via virtualization technology. The user can access the exact same application, profile, and system settings via the Remote Desktop Client in different location or client devices, and use the central server server. System resources perform calculation operations.

Although the above desktop virtualization technology can simplify the personal computer management operation and maintenance cost through centralized management, when the user's geographical location is far away from the cloud service computer room, it takes a lot of time to transfer the user interaction with the virtual desktop. Pictures and commands cause the application to react too slowly.

Since the computing resources required by the cloud service are concentrated in the central computer room, when a large number of users use the cloud service at the same time, the network bandwidth will be blocked, causing the cloud service to fail to respond to the user's request in time, and when a major abnormality occurs in the central computer room. The cloud service will not be provided normally, which will not only affect the user's rights but also damage the reputation of the cloud service provider.

In addition, each time the virtual desktop environment opened by the user is not properly protected, the user may not be able to use the virtual desktop environment in the event of a human error or a malicious program deliberately deleting the important data.

It can be seen that there are still many shortcomings in the above-mentioned methods, which are not a good designer. However, it is urgent to improve them. In view of the shortcomings derived from the above-mentioned conventional methods, the inventors of this case have improved and innovated for many years. After painstaking research, I finally successfully developed the system and method for opening the cloud computing service based on the user's location.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an optimal efficiency cloud service environment to users, effectively reduce the time required for data transmission, centrally store and manage personalized settings and snapshot units, and greatly increase the reliability of user data and cloud service environment. Sex and safety.

The system for achieving the above object and the method for opening the cloud service are to implement a cloud service environment and centrally manage the user by using a set of broadband remote access server and a central management server to provide an optimal efficiency local management server. Personalized settings and cloud service snapshot units to achieve both cloud service performance and data security protection, the method is to open a browser to connect to the web page, perform user identity authentication and obtain the user network access location, according to the network The local management server selects the best efficiency localization server, obtains the user personalized setting and the cloud service snapshot unit and transmits it to the local management server, establishes the user cloud service environment and applies the cloud service snapshot unit to start the cloud service environment. Inform the user to open the cloud service connection, close the cloud service environment, establish a cloud service snapshot unit and transfer it to the central management server, and store the usage record of the cloud service to the central database.

The system and method for opening a cloud computing service according to a user location provided by the present invention have the following advantages when compared with other conventional technologies:

1. The invention can monitor the cloud service user access network location in the broadband network access machine room side, cooperate with the local management server and the local computing server located in the regional computer room to provide the best efficiency cloud service environment to the user. It effectively reduces the time required for data transmission and provides a feasible, reliable and efficient way to open cloud services.

2. The invention can centrally manage user personalization settings, cloud service usage records, and cloud service snapshot versions in the central computer room, cloud service computing resources in the local computer room, and cloud service environment startup and shutdown in the central office to achieve centralized management and dispersion. The goal of the operation.

3. The invention can fully utilize the existing broadband network access machine room and the broadband network access device, not only reduces the cloud service construction cost, but also ensures the stability and reliability of the cloud service, and solves the problem that the resources are excessively concentrated in the central computer room. The problem of network congestion and Single Point of Failure improves the overall service maintenance efficiency, and its economic benefits are very obvious.

4. The invention can record the record of the user using the cloud service, and save the version of each virtual desktop snapshot unit. When the user virtual desktop is abnormal and the data is lost, the snapshot unit can be used to restore the original normal operation state.

In summary, this case is not only innovative in terms of space type, but also can enhance the above-mentioned multiple functions compared with the customary items. It should fully meet the statutory invention patent requirements of novelty and progressiveness, and apply for it according to law. This invention patent application, in order to invent invention, to the sense of virtue.
