Can cloud computing ease the network rush before the festival?

With the advent of the Mid-autumn festival, 11 pairs of festivals, online booking, shopping and other business volume suddenly increased, resulting in the phenomenon of downtime, can there be a way to prevent this crisis in advance? Please pay attention-Cloud can alleviate the network busy before the festival?

Conform to the trend of the Times, Chen opened a shop on the internet, taking advantage of the advent of the Mid-Autumn festival, he deliberately set up in the online shop on the Mid-Autumn Festival network topics, and created a lot of interactive and lottery links. However, to his surprise, this topic has attracted attention and welcome, the Web page visits from thousands of people rapid growth of millions of people, and occasionally network congestion, which makes Chen silly eyes. In order to avoid user dissatisfaction, to ensure that users visit the topic smoothly, he had to buy dozens of servers and rented hundreds of trillion broadband. But he knew that once the topic was off the line, these devices were basically waste.

Chen is not a special case, along with network shopping and other network platform's rise, many daily life problems can be solved through the network, but it is due to the convenience of the network, every major holiday, many sites will coincide with the network busy or even jam phenomenon.

Is there any way to avoid these problems? Maybe cloud computing can help.

Rent a "cloud" to resolve the problem of downtime

"In fact, cloud computing can solve these problems. "Million Network cloud computing Solutions division general Manager Fan Chunying said that the company can be based on the duration of the project to rent cloud computing services." For example, a computer engineer can help pinpoint the IT equipment needed for a service, and simply add more broadband resources to the network when it is congested to easily resolve the downtime problem.

Not only online shopping, entertainment games and other network congestion problems can be solved by this way. As a result of the normal work pressure, the pace of life, many people in the holiday to choose a home to play games, often in the long holiday is easy to appear game site downtime problem. At this time, the game operators can also be based on the test, public testing, formal operations, holidays and other periods of time to calculate the resource requirements, flexible selection of storage, bandwidth and other resources.

In fact, in some traditional industries, has also begun to lease cloud computing services to improve product performance and services to promote enterprise development. such as Haier, TCL, Skyworth and other traditional household electrical appliances enterprises, in order to enable millions of end-users to obtain a wealth of applications, games, video, education and other service resources, rented a million-net cloud computing services. PepsiCo, one of the world's largest beverages and food companies, pioneered the young creative life platform of Pepsi and the Cat, which is also a flexible response to the fast-growing number of user clicks and trading volumes and potentially sudden peaks and troughs of the site's traffic.

Data explosion spawned cloud computing

"All of the data in history so far, including the information recorded in the home scrap newspaper, including murals of ancient caves, including the information on disks and discs, will double by 18 months, much faster than Moore's law." Professor Peng, a cloud computing expert at the China Electronics Society, said the data explosion prompted the development of cloud computing and made it a necessity for historical development.

In this respect, many operators have dabbled in cloud computing to seize the opportunity. China Mobile developed the "Big Cloud" product evolution plan, in the research and development process actively combined with some of the company's internal and external application requirements for practice pilot. For example, in data mining actively try to use the "big cloud" to explore how to improve the efficiency of the system at a lower cost, especially in the network management data monitoring, mobile Internet mass storage to explore some new utilization patterns.

And 2011 when many people still think cloud computing is only the concept of the time, million has launched a cloud computing products, began to E-commerce, mobile internet, games, independent software developers and many traditional enterprises to provide cloud computing services. China million network vice President Haijun introduced, million network early end of the traditional server hosting and leasing business, replaced by the resource-paid cloud computing services, and the original traditional host and virtual host users migrated to the cloud. By 2012, million network has achieved 280,000 virtual host sites, 30,000 cloud host customers operating in the million network cloud computing platform, become the largest number of domestic customers of the public cloud platform.

Fan Chunying said that many manufacturers "make a few servers, install a virtualization software" to call themselves cloud computing, so that both misled customers, but also hurt the interests of customers. To build a truly reliable and safe public cloud, it is necessary to support a large amount of technology, such as large-scale basic software and hardware management, virtual computing management, Distributed File system, business/resource scheduling management, security management control, etc.

More stable and secure cloud services

Now, with the development of science and technology, the pace of life accelerated, more and more applications began to use cloud services. But it is undeniable that, as the cloud computing standards have not yet been unified, there are some voices in the market that are questioning their security. In this respect, Haijun said that before the advent of cloud computing services, when enterprise users faced data deletion, storage device damage or hacker attacks, the traditional solution is to prevent early, increase security measures to reduce the possibility of data loss, but in the face of the lost data will need a lot of money to find professional institutions to solve, In time and effort, but also face irreparable loss. With the wide application of cloud computing technology in the field of information management, the snapshot recovery function based on cloud computing platform can remedy this shortcoming.

According to the introduction, in the cloud computing environment, million network will be a number of IDC through the Gigabit fiber connection, so that resources can be in different data centers to achieve cross-regional sharing, and the structure of a large number of server clusters, so that the cloud host has a traditional IDC host services incomparable advantages. For example, the cloud host storage System Real-time three copies of data allows the enterprise to avoid the hardware single point of failure risk; Data recovery can be easily achieved when a user is confronted with a data deletion or a hacker attack; In addition, when a server fails, the data on this machine can be automatically copied to another device. To ensure the normal use of virtual machines, through cloud computing services can also achieve dynamic upgrades and extensions.

Million network CEO Zhang that Cloud computing is the basis for the future development of the Internet, the future data center model will be replaced by the model of cloud computing. If the previous data center is a cornerstone, the future data center model will be replaced by the model of cloud computing, "Therefore, a large, low-cost, stable and secure cloud computing platform, but also the direction of future development."
