Control computer and method for deploying virtual machines

A control computer, comprising:

• a storage system;
• at least one processor;
• and
• a virtual machine deployment system comprising one or more programs that are stored in the storage system and executed by the at least one processor, the one or more programs comprising instructions to:
• receive a user request for installing a virtual machine in a data center connected to the control computer, and receive a specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine;
• determine an amount of available computing resources of each of a plurality of physical machines in the data center;
• compare the specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine with the amount of available computing resources of each of the plurality of physical machines, and determine one or more physical machines that satisfy the specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine from the plurality of physical machines;
• set a deployment strategy of the virtual machine;
• and
• determine a physical machine from the one or more physical machines according to the deployment strategy of the virtual machine, and deploy the virtual machine in the determined physical machine.

A non-transitory storage medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions capable of being executed by a processor of a control computer to implement a method for deploying a virtual machine in a data center comprising a plurality of physical machines, the method comprising:

• receiving a user request for installing a virtual machine in the data center, and receiving a specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine;
• determining an amount of available computing resources of each of the plurality of physical machines;
• comparing the specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine with the amount of available computing resources of each of the plurality of physical machines, and determining one or more physical machines that satisfy the specified amount of computing resources required by the virtual machine from the plurality of physical machines;
• setting a deployment strategy of the virtual machine;
• and
• determining a physical machine from the one or more physical machines according to the deployment strategy of the virtual machine, and deploying the virtual machine in the determined physical machine.
