服务器虚拟化跟超融合(服务器虚拟化体系架构)

What is the difference between virtualization and hyper-convergence?
The essence of hyper-convergence is the integrated deployment of virtualization and distributed storage. Because distributed storage replaces the centralized storage in the traditional virtualization architecture, it brings performance, scalability, stability, Reliability, simplification of operation and maintenance, and significant increase in operating costs.

Advantages of hyper-convergence

Advantages of hyper-convergence: The architecture of hyper-convergence system is simpler, hyper-convergence system can simplify IT management, hyper-convergence system is flexible and scalable, and hyper-convergence system has high availability And redundant, hyper-converged systems can help users save costs.

1. The architecture of hyper-converged systems is simpler

Hyper-converged systems integrate resources and technologies such as computing, storage, network and server virtualization into one, eliminating the differences in traditional architectures. Bottlenecks and delays between devices. It also includes elements such as backup software, snapshot technology, deduplication, and online data compression. Multiple sets of unit devices can be aggregated through the network to achieve modular and seamless horizontal expansion to form a unified resource pool. Its expansion method has changed. Just add nodes for the horizontal direction.

2. Hyperconverged systems can simplify IT management

Traditional data center architecture requires independent management of each component, including servers, storage devices and network devices. . The hyper-converged system manages all components through a centralized management interface or software, simplifying the maintenance and operation of the entire system. Administrators only need to configure, monitor and troubleshoot through one interface, which greatly reduces the complexity and workload of management, as well as the cost of use and difficulty of operation and maintenance.

3. The hyper-converged system is flexible and scalable

The hyper-converged system uses nodes as the basic building units, so that the system can be flexibly expanded according to needs. When users' business needs expand, IT systems need to quickly keep up with business needs. At this time, capacity expansion is needed. The hyper-converged system only needs to add new nodes and purchase the same configuration according to the needs. It can easily carry out capacity planning and resource adjustment, realizing the expansion of the IT system while avoiding large-scale upgrades or hardware replacements. costs and risks.

4. High availability and redundancy of hyper-converged systems

Hyper-converged systems have automatic failover and fault-tolerance mechanisms. In the event of a failure, the system can automatically migrate data and workloads to other nodes, and data is replicated and backed up among multiple nodes to ensure business continuity and availability and data security. It can provide higher protection and recovery capabilities for data, prevent data loss, and reduce the risk of data loss and business interruption.

5. Hyper-converged systems can help users save costs

The core of hyper-convergence is integration, which has many functions. Traditional data center architecture requires the purchase, configuration and management of multiple independent devices, while hyperconverged systems combine the functions of multiple devices. In this way, users no longer need to purchase separate storage devices, switches, etc., thereby saving hardware costs. Moreover, the simplified management and flexible scalability of the hyper-converged system also reduce labor costs and operation and maintenance costs.

What is hyperconvergence?

Hyper-convergence is an emerging technology architecture that highly integrates computing, storage and network resources into a single software solution.


Hyper-convergence technology uses software-defined methods to uniformly manage and schedule traditional distributed computing, storage and network resources, achieving resource pooling and high automation. This architecture simplifies the data center infrastructure, improves resource utilization and management efficiency, and also reduces costs. Hyperconverged systems are usually based on general-purpose x86 server hardware and use virtualization technology to integrate multiple physical servers into a logical resource pool to provide unified storage and computing resources.


For example, a hyper-converged system can integrate the hard disk resources of multiple servers into a unified storage pool for use by virtual machines. In this way, when a virtual machine requires more storage resources, the system can automatically allocate resources to it from the resource pool without manual configuration. This automated management method can greatly improve management efficiency and reduce manual operations.


In general, hyper-convergence technology is an innovative data center architecture that highly integrates and uniformly manages computing, storage and network resources through software-defined methods. Data centers bring greater flexibility, scalability and efficiency.
