Solution Advantages

  • Secure and Efficient

    Exclusive BMSs provide ultra-high computing performance without any virtualization performance loss. Ultra-high-performance EVS disks provide three data copies, ensuring up to seven nines data durability for data security and reliability.

  • Quick Provisioning

    You can buy a BMS on the management console within 5 minutes. In addition, automatic image installation, network configuration, and EVS mounting are supported, helping you set up infrastructure efficiently.

  • Flexible Deployment

    ECSs and BMSs can be deployed together. ECSs can be interconnected with each other and BMSs can communicate with external resources through VPCs. Additionally, EIPs are supported to meet complex networking requirements.

  • Active/Active Architecture

    EVS disks can be automatically mounted to address local disk capacity bottlenecks of traditional physical servers. Enterprise core databases can be deployed in active/active mode.

Recommended Services

  • Bare Metal Server
    Bare Metal Server (BMS) provides dedicated physical servers with high specifications and performance. It offers resource sharing and network isolation, ensuring stable running of core databases.
  • Elastic Volume Service
    Elastic Volume Service (EVS) provides virtual block storage with elastic scalability, high reliability, and high I/O throughput. EVS disks can be mounted to multiple servers to achieve active/active architecture of enterprise cloud databases.
  • Virtual Private Cloud
    Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) enables you to create a private, isolated virtual network. You can assign EIPs to access VPC environments and configure services.
