Although Tencent distributed cloud is deployed in the customer data center, both its products and technology are based on public cloud technology, and its Ops work are handled by the public cloud Ops team. Therefore, the scale advantages of public cloud Ops are also reflected in Tencent distributed cloud.
To achieve this effect, Cloud Dedicated Cluster (CDC)/Cloud Dedicated Zone (CDZ) has been specially designed for customer's local deployment and management, enabling large-scale deployment to customer data centers and edge data centers.
Layer-3 Network Connection: The customer network connection is based on Layer-3 networking. Control can be achieved as long as the control network is connected to the nearest Tencent Cloud POP point. This approach reduces the difficulty and cost of connection, shortens the construction cycle of connection implementation, and is conducive to the rapid deployment in edge scenarios such as office campuses, hospitals, and factories.
SD-WAN Connection: CDC/CDZ supports the use of SD-WAN hardware and connection solutions for building control networks. Customers do not need to provide the network, which makes it more adaptable to edge scenarios.
Intelligent Cabinets: For edge scenarios, if customers do not have a professional data center, CDC/CDZ can be delivered based on integrated intelligent cabinets, dynamic ring networks, UPS, and refrigeration equipment. This solution has very low time and investment costs, but it can significantly enhance the basic environmental protection capability in edge scenarios, thus ensuring that CDC/CDZ can provide sufficient service availability.
Remote Centralized Control: All CDC/CDZ are remotely connected to the nearest public cloud region and centrally managed by the public cloud Ops team. The public cloud's monitoring system and Ops system can serve the CDC/CDZ environment, achieving efficient operation and maintenance. Compared to traditional private clouds, which require building support environments and deploying Ops engineers for each cloud environment, the CDC/CDZ model has significant advantages in Ops costs.
Flexible Backup Solutions: According to customers' availability requirements and environment, backup solutions can be flexibly adjusted. In the event of a failure, business operations switch to backup machines via automation tools and continue to run. This ensures that even if the Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR) due to hardware failure is relatively high, it can still provide an Service Level Agreement (SLA) that meets customer business requirements.
