MUNA is an acronym for Multi-User Network Architecture, which is a data center virtualization solution that enables multiple users to access and share the same physical server resources. MUNA is designed to improve the efficiency, scalability, security, and performance of data center operations.
The MUNA architecture consists of four main components:
- MUNA Server: This is the physical server that hosts the virtual machines (VMs) and provides the computing, storage, and networking resources for the users. The MUNA Server runs a hypervisor that manages the VMs and allocates the resources dynamically according to the user demands.
- MUNA Client: This is the device that connects to the MUNA Server and accesses the VMs. The MUNA Client can be a desktop, laptop, tablet, smartphone, or any other device that supports remote desktop protocol (RDP) or virtual network computing (VNC). The MUNA Client provides a user interface and a secure connection to the MUNA Server.
- MUNA Manager: This is the software that controls and monitors the MUNA Server and the VMs. The MUNA Manager provides a web-based dashboard that allows the administrators to create, delete, modify, and migrate the VMs, as well as to configure the security policies, backup schedules, and performance metrics. The MUNA Manager also provides reports and alerts on the status and performance of the MUNA Server and the VMs.
- MUNA Storage: This is the external storage device that connects to the MUNA Server and provides additional storage capacity for the VMs. The MUNA Storage can be a network attached storage (NAS), a storage area network (SAN), or a cloud storage service. The MUNA Storage enables the VMs to access large amounts of data without affecting the performance of the MUNA Server.
