A management architecture of cloud server systems

摘要

With the development of the cloud computing, the servers we use today are not suitable for data centers very well because of high power consumption and low density. In this paper, we propose a cloud server of low power consumption, high density and good scalability. We employ a reconfigurable architecture to build the cloud server and we can change or update the architecture of the cloud server from remote easily. Furthermore, we build a LAN upon a 2D torus interconnection network using distributed DHCP servers and distributed ARP proxies cooperated with an integrated switch. The experimental result of the prototype shows the availability and high throughput of the network in the cloud server system.
