Abstract:
This study presents a comprehensive design and simulation analysis of a scalable and resilient network architecture tailored for a hybrid cloud environment, along with the development of an efficient billing system. Hybrid cloud deployments have gained significant popularity due to their ability to combine the advantages of public and private clouds, offering enhanced flexibility, cost-efficiency, and data security. However, designing and managing an effective network infrastructure for a hybrid cloud presents unique challenges that need to be addressed for optimal performance and resource utilization.
The study begins by analyzing the requirements and constraints of a hybrid cloud environment, including workload distribution, data privacy, and network scalability. Based on these considerations, a network architecture is proposed, leveraging both public and private cloud resources to create a robust and scalable infrastructure. The architecture incorporates redundant network components, load balancing mechanisms, and fault-tolerant features to ensure high availability and resilience.
To evaluate the proposed network architecture, a simulation study is conducted using industry-standard network simulation tools. The simulation model encompasses various network parameters, including network traffic patterns, resource utilization, and response times. Performance metrics, such as throughput, latency, and network utilization, are measured to assess the effectiveness of the architecture under different scenarios.
Furthermore, the study addresses the challenge of billing and resource allocation in a hybrid cloud environment. A billing system is developed that accurately tracks resource consumption and generates transparent billing reports for users. The system incorporates metering mechanisms to measure resource usage across public and private cloud domains, allowing for precise cost allocation and efficient billing management.
The results of the simulation study demonstrate that the proposed network architecture effectively handles dynamic workloads, achieves high scalability, and maintains resilience even under challenging conditions. The billing system provides accurate resource usage tracking and transparent billing reports, enabling users to effectively manage and optimize their cloud spending.
Overall, this research contributes to the advancement of scalable and resilient network architectures for hybrid clouds and provides insights into the design and implementation of an efficient billing system. The findings of this study can benefit cloud service providers, IT professionals, and organizations seeking to harness the benefits of hybrid cloud environments while ensuring optimal network performance and cost management.
