Application scenarios

Self built relational/NOSQL database

Enterprise core business system

Snapshot based data protection

Enterprise application system

Self built relational/NOSQL database

Enterprise core business system

Snapshot based data protection

Enterprise application system

Scenario description and summary

At present, through self built database recording and querying, user information, message flow, status information and other data, enterprises require that the database performance must meet the requirements of 10 million DAUs. ESSD meets the acceleration requirements in this scenario

Scenario needs and pain points

When the DAU reaches 10 million level, the number of chat information and status information records and queries in IM instant messaging scenarios will reach hundreds of thousands to millions, and the delay must be controlled within the ms level. Traditional efficient cloud disks and SSD disks cannot meet the requirements at the same time. Need more performance block storage

Solutions and advantages

The ESSD cloud disk, as the block storage of the self built database, can flexibly select the corresponding gear according to the business requirements, supporting up to 1 million IOPS and microsecond delay

Support immediate change, immediate effect and elastic scaling, and meet the read, write and query requirements of database business at a high cost performance ratio

Advantages and value of the scheme

With the characteristics of high IO and low latency, the ESSD cloud disk meets the database performance requirements of the IM scenario, and provides multiple different gear options, making the startup's R&D, operation and maintenance easy

Recommended combination

ECS

Scenario description and summary

Customers build their own big data clusters, and use local SSD machines to build their own HBase to retrieve recommended services

Scenario needs and pain points

With the increase of service traffic, the read throughput reaches the maximum value of the local SSD disk, affecting the service query performance

The local SSD cluster cannot be expanded, and the cost performance of the new machine is not high

Solutions and advantages

Customers batch change the machine of self built Hbase database to ESSD cloud disk to support the retrieval performance of NoSql database under high business pressure

Advantages and value of the scheme

ESSD supports up to 4GBBps of throughput and 1 million IOPS, ensuring the stable operation of recommended services during peak business hours

The ESSD cloud disk has high reliability of nine nines data, supports elastic expansion, and enables flexible expansion of storage resources with business development, making operation and maintenance easier

Recommended combination

ECS

Scenario description and summary

The enterprise has thousands of ECS instances scattered in multiple AliCloud regions. How to ensure the security of these ECS instances has become the focus of current IT construction. Block storage snapshot service can meet the above requirements

Scenario needs and pain points

Many key business systems are running in ECS. In case of data deletion, configuration error and other failures, rapid recovery is required

There are hundreds of business systems online, and each system needs to apply different protection strategies, which is difficult to manage

Solutions and advantages

Create different automatic snapshot policies according to the actual protection requirements, and create snapshots for cloud disks on a regular basis. When an error occurs in the cloud disk, it is rolled back through the snapshot in seconds

Advantages and value of the scheme

One click cloud disk backup based on snapshots, no need to install client agents, simple and convenient operation

Automatically execute snapshot tasks based on policies to meet various cloud disk protection requirements

Recommended combination

ECS

Scenario description and summary

Video live broadcast involves the dissemination of a large number of pictures, files and other content, and is a key industry of safety supervision. How to complete a large number of picture content more efficiently and quickly is the focus of continuous breakthroughs and improvements by industry customers

Scenario needs and pain points

The size of the video clip image is 50KB. When reading and calculating simultaneously through a high-performance container cluster, the time consumption of a single image is very low. In order to improve the utilization of the container, it is necessary to increase the frequency of data reading and writing

Solutions and advantages

Mount the ESSD cloud disk on the container node as a data disk reading and writing frame capture image to meet the performance requirements of high business throughput. The maximum throughput capacity is 200 times higher than that of the efficient cloud disk and 40 times higher than that of the SSD disk

Advantages and value of the scheme

The ESSD cloud disk provides stable low latency and high throughput capabilities, meets the requirements of container high-performance computing, greatly improves the container processing efficiency, and reduces the risk of live broadcast business
