Abstract

An ICT resource management device which manages a physical node and a virtual node, each as an ICT resource, includes: a configuration information management part configured to manage physical layer configuration information of the physical node on a physical layer and virtual layer configuration information of the virtual node on a virtual layer; a layer mapping part configured to perform mapping of the physical layer and the virtual layer; a blueprint creation part configured to, when an externally-provided device requests a change in the configuration, create a blueprint which is design information on an infrastructure required for the configuration change, based on the physical layer configuration information, the virtual layer configuration information, and mapping information obtained as a result of the mapping; and an orchestrator part configured to access and run a program operative via an API, based on the blueprint, to thereby perform orchestration of the virtual layer.
