CLOUD COMPUTING SYSTEM, SERVER COMPUTER, DEVICE CONNECTION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A cloud computing system including a group of server computers, the cloud computing system comprising:
- an initial request reception unit configured to receive a connection request from a device configured to transmit the connection request, a service usage request, and service identification information, wherein the initial request reception unit includes a notification unit configured to notify the device of information required to identify a request reception unit configured to receive a service usage request;
a request reception unit configured, in a case where the device has tried to access the request reception unit based on the information required to identify a request reception unit, to receive a service usage request and service identification information transmitted from the device, wherein the request reception unit includes a determination unit configured to determine, based on the received service identification information, whether a back-end processing unit is present that both corresponds to the device and is configured to execute the service; and
a transmission unit configured, in a case where the determination unit determines that a back-end processing unit that both corresponds to the device and is configured to execute the service is present, to transmit a service utilization preparation completion screen to the device without instructing generation of an instance that can realize the back-end processing unit and, in a case where the determination unit determines that a back-end processing unit that both corresponds to the device and is configured to execute the service is not present, to send an instance generation instruction to a management unit configured to manage instances and to further send an instruction to launch an instance generated to execute the service, wherein after the instance is launched and the back-end processing unit is realized, the transmission unit further is configured to transmit the service utilization preparation completion screen to the device.

Abstract
A cloud computing system includes an initial request reception unit, a request reception unit, and a transmission unit. The initial request reception unit receives a connection request from a device. In a case where the device has tried to access a request reception unit, the request reception unit receives a service usage request and service identification information from the device and determines whether a back-end processing unit is present that both corresponds to the device and is configured to execute the service. If present, a service utilization preparation completion screen is transmitted to the device. If not present, an instance generation instruction is sent to a management unit and instruction to launch an instance generated to execute the service is sent. After the instance is launched and the back-end processing unit is realized, the service utilization preparation completion screen is transmitted to the device.
