9、rnational Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, o

10、perating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn

11、 produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE

12、In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.

13、g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not s

14、uggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the e

15、vidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, whic

ITU-T Y.3501 Recommendation ITU-T Y.3501 (2013), Cloud computing framework and high-level requirements. 3 Definitions 3.1 Terms defined elsewhere This Recommendation uses the following terms defined elsewhere: 3.1.1 cloud service

27、 customer ITU-T Y.3501: A person or organization that consumes delivered cloud services within a contract with a cloud service provider. 3.1.2 cloud service provider ITU-T Y.3501: An organization that provides and maintains delivered cloud services. 3.1.3 emergency telecommunications (ET) b-ITU-T Y.

28、2205: ET means any emergency related service that requires special handling from the NGN relative to other services. This includes government authorized emergency services and public safety services. 3.1.4 emergency telecommunications service (ETS) b-ITU-T E.107: A nationwide service providing prior

29、ity telecommunications to ETS authorized users in times of disaster and emergencies. 3.1.5 management system b-ITU-T M.60: A system with the capability and authority to exercise control over and/or collect management information from another system. 3.1.6 virtual resource b-ITU-T Y.3011: An abstract

31、nsion of the resource characteristics. “different characteristics“ allows the virtual resource to expose access or control methods different from the original physical or logical resource. 3.1.7 logical resource b-ITU-T Y.3011: An independently manageable partition of a physical resource, which inhe

36、Private Network Rec. ITU-T Y.3510 (05/2013) 3 5 Conventions In this Recommendation: The keywords “is required“ indicate a requirement which must be strictly followed and from which no deviation is permitted if conformance to this document is to be claimed. The keywords “is prohibited“ indicate a req

37、uirement which must be strictly followed and from which no deviation is permitted if conformance to this document is to be claimed. The keywords “is recommended“ indicate a requirement which is recommended but which is not absolutely required. Thus this requirement need not be present to claim confo

38、rmance. The keywords “can optionally“ indicate an optional requirement which is permissible, without implying any sense of being recommended. This term is not intended to imply that the vendors implementation must provide the option and the feature can be optionally enabled by the network operator/s

39、ervice provider. Rather, it means the vendor may optionally provide the feature and still claim conformance with the specification. 6 Overview of cloud infrastructure In this Recommendation, cloud infrastructure includes compute, storage, network and other hardware resources, as well as software ass

40、ets. Abstraction and control of physical resources are essential means to achieve on-demand and elastic characteristics of cloud infrastructure. This way, physical resources can be abstracted into virtual machines (VMs), virtual storage and virtual networks. The abstracted resources are controlled t

41、o meet cloud service customers (CSC) needs. The main characteristics of cloud infrastructure are: Network-centric: cloud infrastructure consists of distributed resources including compute, storage and other hardware resources that are connected through the networks. On-demand resource provisioning:

42、cloud infrastructure dynamically provides resources according to CSCs needs. Elasticity: cloud infrastructure is capable of expanding or reducing its resources to accommodate heavier or lighter workloads. High availability: cloud infrastructure is capable of providing required resources under the co

43、nditions stated in the service level agreement (SLA). Resources abstraction: the underlying resources of cloud infrastructure (compute, storage, network, etc.) are invisible to the CSCs. NOTE For high-level cloud computing requirements, please refer to ITU-T Y.3501. 7 Requirements for compute resour

44、ces Compute resources are used to provide essential capabilities for cloud services and to support other system capabilities such as resource abstraction and control, management, security and monitoring. The basic unit of allocation and scheduling of compute resources is a computing machine. A compu

45、ting machine can be physical or virtual. The capability of a computing machine is typically expressed in terms of hardware configuration, availability, scalability, manageability and energy consumption. 4 Rec. ITU-T Y.3510 (05/2013) 7.1 Physical machine requirements The physical machine requirements

46、 include: It is recommended to support hardware resource virtualization. It is recommended to support horizontal scalability (e.g., adding more computing machines) and vertical scalability (e.g., adding more resources with a computing machine). It is recommended to use power optimization solutions t

47、o reduce energy consumption. 7.2 Virtual machine requirements The virtual machine provides a virtualized and isolated computing environment for each guest operating system (OS). The virtual machine requirements include: It is required to support migration of virtual machines between different physic

48、al computing machines. 7.2.1 CPU virtualization The central processing unit (CPU) virtualization allows running multiple virtual CPUs (vCPU) on a single physical CPU. The CPU virtualization requirements include: The virtual machines vCPUs computing capability can optionally be specified as a fractio

49、n of a physical CPU. 7.2.2 Memory virtualization The memory virtualization includes memory allocation at the startup of a virtual machine and memory release at the shutdown of a virtual machine. The memory virtualization requirements include: It is recommended that while a virtual machine is active, the hypervisor monitors memory usage and reallocates unused memory to other virtual machines dynamically. 7.2.3 Input/Output device virtualization The Input/Output (I/O) vir
