How to display the Avatar in the face of Typhoon cloud

Typhoon-a daunting word. From the beginning of May to November, East Asia entered the typhoon season. Dozens of tropical cyclones may be born in the Pacific Ocean, but in fact, a large proportion of them eventually did not develop into typhoons, while others were stranded in the sea because of the subtropical pressure belt, and the number of typhoons that are really able to log in and endanger our lives is actually not much.

Typhoon Eye

But the typhoon that landed is as terrible as the chosen death. Before the arrival, the government issued a notice to prepare, serious time will be issued a holiday notice, all enterprises shutdown, school suspension. Pay attention to the direction and power of the typhoon, because of its powerful power, in the information dissemination is not developed even when a lot of rumors.

Typhoon Disasters raging

In the internet age, surfing the internet to see Typhoons has become the mainstream public understanding of information. In this, the real-time update of the Typhoon path release system has become the most important source of information. Most of the information on television and Weibo comes from this site, because the system is displayed by the large screen at the command center of the platform.

The forecast of Typhoon epidemic needs to be improved

A horizontal comparison of the Typhoon forecast site, engineers said that the current technical input on the main focus on Zhejiang province, Wenzhou, Shanghai, the other provinces and cities Typhoon forecast system is very simple, and even maintained the official agencies have always been to non-ie browser extreme exclusion.

Undoubtedly, this is related to the pain of the typhoon in Zhejiang province. The typhoon that landed in Sanmen County in 1956 caused nearly 5000 people to die. August 8, 1988, Hangzhou, due to typhoon the city blackout 5 days. 1997 Typhoon affected the population by 21.67 million, accounting for half of the province's population. In recent years, each super typhoon will bring more than 18 billion loss.

Hardware downtime is the culprit

This year typhoon season, every encounter typhoon, there will be some meteorological sites into a crash, the original use of technology is not superb, encounter such as the typhoon version of the Internet to find data users, is simply "weak explosion." As an example of the super typhoon Anemone that landed in transit on August 8, the system traffic on August 5 was only less than 100,000, while 6th increased to 800,000, 7th to 2.5 million, and 8th to 3.5 million, which is a new history of the system since it was launched. This means that the number of visits within 3 days has increased dozens of times times.

Downtime no one wants to see

"It is not realistic to configure the server according to the 4 million access criteria, because 99% of the resources are wasted except this day." It is also very difficult to find the resources to meet the new 99%, because it takes a lot of time to buy and deploy. The system owner says.

Typhoon "Anemone"

In response to the larger typhoon anemone, the total use of SLB load balancing, cloud server, open storage of these 3 products. Load balancing is responsible for dynamically booting an exploding user onto a different server to prevent a single server from collapsing. Several cloud servers are deployed to different clusters, which makes it unlikely that the system crashes even if a single cluster occurs unexpectedly. The open storage stores the data for the past years and gets the updated data uploaded by the weather stations, which are synchronized to storage in different places to ensure that no data is lost because of a hard drive failure.

How Cloud computing Works

The typhoon is bound to bring disaster, fortunately, the anemone did not cause too much damage. In the process of summing up experience, the first time cloud computing with early warning, emergency and so on are included in the success of the platform. It also means that cloud computing, a common technology developed by Internet technology, has become a real productivity.

Typhoon Route release system

For the management department of the Zhejiang Provincial Water Conservancy, but also hope that the use of cloud computing to further enhance the function of the Typhoon path release system, the hydrological, real-time pictures and other integration into the country to make the best Typhoon system.

As a matter of fact, the services provided by enterprises are often very difficult to be actively accepted by government departments. Cloud computing also faces this dilemma. But the value embodied in the anti-Taiwan process has also attracted a lot of attention from many units, which in fact have a very typical peak-valley effect, requiring flexible and inexpensive cloud computing support.

Typhoon Prediction System

In addition, whether from the accuracy of the forecast or the precise degree of time, cloud computing can be effective deployment of the affected residents to survive, effective deployment strategy to prevent the occurrence of hardware downtime is a typhoon and other natural disaster prediction work in the most important, with the continuous development of cloud computing technology, Our early warning and forecasting of natural disasters will also become more and more reliable.
