Abstract:
Provided is a method of processing an input and output of a virtual machine. The method includes transferring, by a frontend virtual driver of a first virtual machine, an input and output command to a hypervisor, storing, by hypervisor, a context of the first virtual machine in response to the input and output command, executing, by the hypervisor, an interface of each of a physical driver and a backend virtual driver, installed in a second virtual machine independent from the first virtual machine, in the first virtual machine, and transferring, by the first virtual machine, the input and output command to an input/output device through the interface of each of the physical driver and the backend virtual driver.
Abstract:
Provided herein is a method for improving Virtual Machine input/output performance of a server configured to execute a plurality of Virtual Machines, a scheduling method of a multicore system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure including measuring frequency of input/output requests of each of a plurality of Virtual Machines; determining whether or not there is a Virtual Machine of which the frequency of input/output requests is or more than a predetermined threshold value; moving, if frequency of input/output requests of a first Virtual Machine is or more than the predetermined threshold value, the first Virtual Machine to a first core where a Dom0 Virtual Machine is being executed; and shortening a scheduling cycle of the first core where the Dom0 Virtual Machine is being executed, thereby dynamically adjusting the scheduling cycles of the Virtual Machines, and rearranging the Virtual Machines between the cores in the multicore system, so as to improve the input/output performance of the Virtual Machines.
Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus and method for managing a cache of a server memory executing a plurality of virtual machines. The apparatus for managing a cache of a virtual machine image file includes a cache layer configuring unit configured to divide a cache memory into cache blocks and configure a plurality of cache layers including the divided cache blocks, and a read request processing unit configured to manage the cache layers on the basis of information of a time interval between read requests and the number of referencing files according to a read request received by the cache memory, and transmit data of a corresponding cache block according to the read request.
Abstract:
Provided herein is a server virtualization method of a multi-node system, the server virtualization method comprising setting one of a plurality of computing nodes as a hypervisor master and at least one of remaining computing nodes as at least one hypervisor slave, allocating a virtual resource corresponding to each of the at least one hypervisor slave in the hypervisor master, and instructing, when a workload is input, a hypervisor slave determined based on a use state of the virtual resource corresponding to the each of the at least one hypervisor slave to process the workload.
