Virtualization of Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS): Redundancy Mechanism of the Controller Node in OpenStack Cloud Computing Platform
Abstract:
In last twenty years IT world has come across a dramatic
change particularly in the field of communications and IT Infrastructure. The Infrastructure
as a Service (IaaS) service of cloud computing is becoming more popular day by day
due to its overwhelming technical and financial offerings. OpenStack Networking is a standalone service. The main process
of the OpenStack Networking server is quantum-server that is responsible for managing
user requests to Compute Node, Storage Node and to other components in the entire
network. Therefore, a pin-point in an OpenStack network platform is that
after received the instruction through the dashboard the entire instruction set
is directed in the network developed only through the Controller Node. It is considered
a crucial point in the whole network as if for any reason the link is broken to
the Controller Node no instruction to pass through to the intended node. This will
result in a complete downtime of the network. Keeping this point in mind a standby
Controller Node is proposed with addition of a Link Node for managing the controllers
and thus maximum uptime is ensured.
