Abstract

A resource searching device includes a requirement acquisition unit configured to acquire resource requirement information including resource requirements for a plurality of resources, the resources being related to a deployment request of a plurality of received resources and being related to devices or connections between the devices; a calculation unit configured to refer to system configuration information including information on the resources related to devices and connections between the devices in an information processing system to be managed, and to calculate fulfillment rate information including a fulfillment rate for each of the resources that satisfy the resource requirements; and a searching unit configured to search for a plurality of resources corresponding to the deployment request of the plurality of resources by sequentially selecting the resources that satisfy the resource requirements on the basis of the fulfillment rate information and the connections between the devices in the deployment request.

Claims

1. A resource searching device comprising:

a requirement acquisition unit configured to acquire resource requirement information including resource requirements for a plurality of resources, the plurality of resources being related to a deployment request of a plurality of received resources and being related to devices or connections between the devices;

a calculation unit configured to refer to system configuration information including information on the plurality of resources related to devices and connections between the devices in an information processing system to be managed, and to calculate fulfillment rate information including a fulfillment rate for each of the plurality of resources that satisfy the resource requirements; and

a searching unit configured to search for a plurality of searched resources corresponding to the deployment request of the plurality of resources by sequentially selecting the searched resources that satisfy the resource requirements on the basis of the fulfillment rate information and the connections between the devices in the deployment request.

2. The resource searching device according to claim 1, wherein

the searching unit selects a resource with a lowest fulfillment rate first.

3. The resource searching device according to claim 2, wherein

the searching unit selects the resource with the lowest fulfillment rate of the unselected resources when a plurality of unselected resources are connected to the resource selected last.

4. The resource searching device according to claim 2, wherein

the searching unit sequentially selects the searched resources that satisfy the resource requirements by tracking from the resource selected first based on the connections between the devices.

5. The resource searching device according to claim 1, wherein

the calculation unit calculates the fulfillment rate of the devices that satisfy the resource requirements with respect to the device obtained from the system configuration information, and

the searching unit searches for the plurality of searched resources corresponding to the deployment request of the plurality of resources by selecting a device with a lowest fulfillment rate first and by sequentially selecting unselected devices by tracking the connections from the device selected first.

6. The resource searching device according to claim 5, wherein

the searching unit selects the device with the lowest fulfillment rate among the unselected devices when a plurality of unselected devices are connected to the device selected last.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored therein a resource searching program for causing a computer to execute a digital signature process comprising:

acquiring resource requirement information including resource requirements for a plurality of resources, the plurality of resources being related to a deployment request of a plurality of received resources and being related to devices or connections between the devices;

referring to system configuration information including information on the plurality of resources related to devices and connections between the devices in an information processing system to be managed, and calculating fulfillment rate information including a fulfillment rate for each of the plurality of resources that satisfy the resource requirements; and

searching for a plurality of searched resources corresponding to the deployment request of the plurality of resources by sequentially selecting the searched resources that satisfy the resource requirements on the basis of the fulfillment rate information and the connections between the devices in the deployment request.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 7, wherein

the sequentially selecting selects a resource with a lowest fulfillment rate first.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 8, wherein

the sequentially selecting selects the resource with the lowest fulfillment rate among the unselected resources when the plurality of unselected resources are connected to the resource selected last.

10. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 7, wherein

the sequentially selecting sequentially selects the searched resources that satisfy the resource requirements by tracking from the resource selected first based on the connections between the devices.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 7, wherein

the calculating calculates the fulfillment rate of the device that satisfy the resource requirements with respect to the device obtained from the system configuration information;

the searching searches for the plurality of searched resources corresponding to the deployment request of the plurality of resources by selecting a device with a lowest fulfillment rate first and sequentially selects the unselected devices by tracking the connections from the device selected first.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium according to claim 11, wherein

the sequentially selecting selects the device with the lowest fulfillment rate among the unselected devices when the plurality of unselected devices are connected to the device selected last.
