Architecture Design of Resource Support System for the Rail-Water Intermodal Transportation Cloud Platform

Abstract

Due to the unbalanced development of intermodal information development in different regions of China, the rigid structure of resource system and the low degree of information sharing, the development of intermodal transportation informationization is restricted to a large extent. According to the architecture design of the rail-water intermodal transportation cloud platform, this paper reconstructs the traditional IaaS and PaaS architectures, and establishes a multi-area redundant architecture, so that these virtual resources can form an organic whole in the cloud and interact with the intermodal organizations. At the same time, the direct coupling between the hardware infrastructure and software of the “chimneys” system architecture are eliminated by using the layered structure based on the virtualization technology. The resource support system can reduce the use cost of information, strengthen the management efficiency of software and hardware resources of cloud platform and a large number of heterogeneous business applications.
