Serverless application engine
The serverless application engine SAE (Serverless App Engine) is a zero code transformation, extremely simple to use, adaptive and elastic application full hosting platform. SAE allows you to deploy online applications in any language (such as web/microservices/job tasks) from source code/code package/Docker image to SAE in seconds without the need for operation and maintenance IaaS and K8s, and automatically scale the supporting capabilities of instance billing by usage, out of the box logging, monitoring, load balancing, etc.

Product advantages

Minimal experience
Zero transformation and online application, zero learning cost, and second level creation&release of applications; Pay according to the actual usage, and the application cost will be reduced by more than 40%.
Open standards
Based on container standards, open source core capabilities, no vendor lock; Abundant platform engineering capability, helping R&D, operation and maintenance improve efficiency by 50%.
Adaptive elasticity
100 millisecond elastic scaling, adaptively adjusting the number of application instances according to the traffic; Cold start shall be applied to improve efficiency, and capacity reduction to 0 is supported.

Product Functions

Application lifecycle management It provides application lifecycle management services from creation to operation, supports batch, grayscale, canary and other release strategies, and supports grayscale by traffic. The publishing process can be observed and rolled back.
Platform engineering capability Seconds from source code warehouse or War The Jar code package deploys SAE applications and supports automatic CDs. It also provides application templates CLI command line tools, component libraries, cost stewards and other capabilities help developers deliver applications quickly and efficiently.
Non intrusive microservice governance Support Spring Cloud Dubbo zero code transformation and migration to SAE. Provide service registration&discovery, environment isolation, configuration management, current limiting and degradation, application lossless uplink and downlink, service authentication, full link grayscale and other capabilities.
Adaptive elasticity 100 millisecond elastic scale, adaptively adjust the application instance according to the traffic; Support white screen configuration of multiple elastic policies and elastic indicators (such as QPS RT, TCP connections, etc.).
Apply cold start acceleration Cold start shall be applied to improve efficiency, and capacity reduction to 0 is supported. Based on Dragoonwell 11 AppCDS startup acceleration technology and Spring&Dubbo Native Image technology, Java applications can be started in milliseconds with less system resources consumed.
One click start/stop of development test environment Large and medium-sized enterprises have multiple sets of environments, and the test environment is generally not used at night. Application instances are kept for a long time, and idle waste is high. The ability to use SAE to start and stop the development and test environment with one button, namely, start and use, can often save about 2/3 of the hardware cost.
Non intrusive application monitoring Based on EBPF technology, SAE provides non-invasive application monitoring and alarm capabilities, and supports any language and any framework. It provides 7-tier portal traffic monitoring, as well as Java application level link level monitoring, to help you quickly locate and diagnose problems.
Remote debugging&end cloud joint debugging It provides the ability of remote debugging, and remote diagnosis is deployed in the Java application of SAE. It provides the micro server cloud joint debugging capability, which enables local service subscription and registration to the cloud SAE built-in registry. Local services and cloud SAE services call each other, making it easier to use.
