Describe Aliyun three storage capacity

With the concept of cloud computing gradually being the concern of people, the gradual application in China, the cloud computing new things - cloud storage applications, as the current front-end products closest to the end user, has been the industry's attention and Fierce competition. In recent years, mobile office storage, communications data storage companies emerge in an endless stream of public attention. The rise of mobile Internet also makes the traditional mobile terminal enterprises began to aim at the cloud storage of this fragrance.

Some time ago, Aliyun Developer Conference held in Hangzhou, the General Assembly a comprehensive inventory of Aliyun platform for the past year, technological innovation and other aspects of the latest progress, at the same time, Aliyun cloud services in various industries, the results of the outlook Aliyun and cloud computing industry The direction of development is also described to journalists and professionals present here. At the large-scale storage branch conference of Aliyun Developer Conference, storage experts from Aliyun and customers in different industries introduced Aliyun's storage products.

Three storage service capabilities

Aliyun cloud computing platform based on the massively distributed computing system provides flexible computing, storage and database, large-scale computing services. Aliyun's storage and database services include Open Storage Services (OSS), Open Structured Data Services (OTS), and Relational Database Services (RDS). OSS supports massive file storage and invokes rendering in multiple places at the same time, which simplifies user data management and migration. According to Chen Jinpei, general manager of Aliyun Cloud Computing Business, OSS is no limit to the amount of hard disk space that users need to store their data. Each single table of OTS can store hundreds of millions of data in a capacity of 100TB. RDS provides instant access and reliable database service. MySQL and SQL Server are currently supported. Ali cloud storage data are three backups, users do not have to worry about data loss or damage.

The OpenStorageService (OSS) is a massive, secure, low-cost and highly reliable cloud storage service provided by Aliyun. Users can upload and download data anytime, anywhere through a simple REST interface. They can also manage data using Web pages. In addition, OSS provides Java, Python and PHP SDKs to simplify user programming. Based on OSS, users can build a variety of multimedia sharing sites, network disk, personal data backup and other business-based large-scale data services.

RDS, short for Relational Database Service, makes it easy to set up, manipulate, and scale relational databases through cloud services. RDS low cost, high efficiency, flexibility to help enterprises solve the time-consuming and laborious database management, so that enterprises have more time to focus on the application and business level up to save the user's hardware costs and maintenance costs. Currently supports MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server two relational databases, with the existing commercial MySQL and MS SQLServer is fully compatible. RDS can be used as the SME relational database application in various industries. Such as SAAS applications, e-commerce sites, community sites, mobile APP and game applications.

Database is a must-have IT infrastructure for many SMEs, however, what is the difference between self-built database and leased database cloud service? Zhou Guihui, senior expert of Aliyun Cloud Computing Fundamentals Division, said: "User self-built database needs two servers, one Copy from a master to do the same when doing the backup also need to write a script, but also know the location of the database backup, and RDS external service availability of 99.95%, as long as the user defines a good backup strategy, the system will automatically backup in accordance with the strategy With RDS, users simply pay on demand, without hosting fees, hardware and software costs, and operational costs.

In the context of the rise of mobile Internet and social networking, database back-end applications will encounter many new challenges. The size of the number of users and the data to be handled, the size of their own explosive growth, the application needs will As the business changes, how to provide a stable and reliable back-office output service has become a challenge. QIU Ying-Jun, a senior expert at Aliyun Flying Department, said that the Open Structured Data Service (OTS) came online in January this year and serves developers in the form of invitation code. It is a massive amount of data built on top of Aliyun's massive distributed cluster system Storage and real-time query service. OTS organizes data in the form of data tables to provide services through interfaces in the form of RESTful APIs that ensure strong consistency, provide cross-table support, and provide views and paging capabilities to speed queries. Users can use services through the RESTful API, or manage data using Web pages. At the same time, OTS provides a multi-language SDK to simplify user programming, suitable for applications with large data size and high real-time requirements.
