Abstract
A service providing system has a virtual machine server and one or more client terminals. The virtual machine server has one or more virtual machines and a virtual machine system unit which controls the virtual machines. The virtual machine system unit classifies the client terminals into groups. Each of the virtual machines provides a service to each of the terminals in a group in response to receiving a request for the service from one of the client terminals in the group of terminals.
Claims26
A service providing system comprising:
- a plurality of virtual machines each of which provides a service;
- a virtual machine system unit which controls the plurality of virtual machines;
- and
- a plurality of client terminals each configured to request a service provided by a first one of the virtual machines,
- wherein the virtual machine system unit classifies one or more of the client terminals into a group and in response to receiving the request from one of the terminals in the group the first virtual machine provides the service to the terminals in the group.
A virtual machine server comprising:
- one or more virtual machines configured to provide services;
- and
- a virtual machine system unit configured to control the virtual machines and classify one or more client terminals into groups,
- wherein the virtual machine provides the service for which it is configured to each of the groups on receipt of the request from a client terminal.
A service providing method comprising:
- classifying client terminals into groups;
- controlling a virtual machine, configured to provide a service, to provide the service to each of the client terminals in a group in response to receipt of a request from one of the client terminals in the group.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon a program product that when executed by a processor performs the method comprising:
- classifying client terminals into groups;
- controlling a virtual machine, configured to provide a service, to provide the service to each of the client terminals in a group in response to receipt of a request from one of the client terminals in the group.
