An Automatic Deployment Method for Hybrid Cloud Simulation Platform

The simulation resources are now virtualized and deployed on cloud platform. It can provide on-demand simulation tests, improving the efficiency of simulation systems. Simulation resources are packaged into virtual machines or containers. Complex software are packaged into virtual machines, and simple simulation services are packaged into containers. However, how to deploy simulation systems under resource constraints is a problem worth studying. This paper studies a virtual machine and container based hybrid cloud simulation platform. An automatic deployment method is proposed to reduce labor costs and errors of manual deployment. A simulation case is applied to verify the usefulness and efficiency of our approach.
