More and more IT departments are trying to optimize existing data center management in order to provide enterprises and organizations with more agile and scalable resources. Microsoft summed up its nearly 15 years of experience in Internet, cloud computing service management and customer service for many large enterprises, and fully realized that the system management of the data center is highly complex, and a single vendor can not meet all the needs of customers. Therefore, it uses comprehensive and multi-level virtualization technology and fully integrates multi-vendor operation management products to realize cross-platform IT process automation, and provides an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) private cloud computing solution-dynamic data center solution for the data center of large enterprises or government agencies.

Microsoft dynamic data center solution can help enterprises to create a virtual environment to run applications. Users can flexibly allocate appropriate application configurations according to their needs and support dynamic expansion. The specific features include deployment, 24 × 7 monitoring, optimization, protection and flexible adaptation. Among them, deployment functions include the deployment of resources such as servers, network and storage services, and flexible self-management. 24x7 monitoring function includes collecting operation data to better meet the needs of SLA, monitoring the utilization of resources, and customer self-monitoring. Optimization features include continuous monitoring and proactive adjustment and migration of servers according to operational needs without affecting the operation of the application or less; allocating "appropriate" resources as needed, without overallocation and low configuration. Protection features include antivirus, spam access filtering and firewalls; applications and data backup; and ensuring 99.9% uptime and physical security of infrastructure. Flexible adaptation features include easy adjustment of the environment and deployment of new resources; storage and bandwidth can be dynamically adjusted according to needs; support for different virtual technologies, and can manage different types of virtual machines.

The logical architecture of the dynamic data center solution is shown in figure 1:

Figure 1 logical architecture of a dynamic data center solution

The top layer is the service layer, which provides account management, service catalog, deployment services and user reports; the lower layer is the management layer, which provides resource management and load balancing; the lower layer is the virtualization layer, which provides hardware virtualization and application virtualization; the bottom layer is the resource layer, including server, network and storage. Finally, it helps users to achieve the following functions of a dynamic data center:

(1) Resource pool management: centrally manage the hardware resources of the center, including servers, storage, network, etc.

(2) dynamic allocation of services: the platform can dynamically allocate service resources.

(3) self-service portal: users can apply for computing resources according to their needs; the platform decides the examination and approval result according to SLA and user payment.

(4) Application and service management: application management; service measurement and billing, SLA, etc.; data storage and disaster recovery services

According to the data, Microsoft's private cloud solution is suitable for the following four scenarios:

(1) deploy private cloud to provide infrastructure-as-a-service IaaS for business.

(2) it is necessary to integrate and build a green data center in order to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

(3) improve the availability of IT services and minimize the impact of IT maintenance operations on business.

(4) cost accounting to customers and business departments according to IT resource usage and service level.

Dynamic data center solution is committed to help enterprises or organizations build secure, reliable and shared data centers, provide self-service mechanism for users of business systems, realize network-based internal rental and accounting management of IT resources, and lay a solid foundation for the high scalability of the system. Really realize the separation of business computing power and IT assets, so that the IT infrastructure at the bottom of the data is provided in the form of services, so as to meet the variability of the business and promote the rapid development of the business.
