Design of a Next Generation D-CATV Cloud Platform Based Content Service Integration System Using Virtualization Technology

In this study, a D-CATV Cloud Platform based content service integration system was designed by maximizing the efficiency of the use of server resources using cloud VM services, which are used as a virtual server management system, as much as possible. The proposed study applies the VMI (Virtual Machine Image) management technology employed in cloud VM services for reducing service recovery time as a content service integration system is faulted. Also, it makes possible to reestablish a same platform environment in fast. Then, multi-tenancy supports including hierarchical managements in contents according to service providers can be highly performed by managing independent resource managements for each SO (System Operator) and by establishing platform infrastructures for each MSO (Multi System Operator).
