Tencent Edge Cloud Product

1. Support containerized deployment

Tencent Cloud Edge Availability Zone uses containerization technology to allow users to package applications and their dependencies into containers to ensure consistent operation in different environments. This deployment method not only improves development efficiency, but also realizes elastic scaling of resources through the lightweight characteristics of containers. Users can quickly start or stop containers according to business needs to optimize resource utilization.

2. Support cloud disk access

Tencent Cloud Edge Availability Zone provides users with powerful storage support through cloud disk access. Users can seamlessly connect edge computing nodes with Tencent Cloud's cloud disk service to achieve persistent storage and efficient management of data. The advantages of cloud disk access are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

Massive storage space: Cloud disk provides almost unlimited storage space, which can meet users' needs for massive data storage in edge computing scenarios. Whether it is log data, monitoring data or business data, it can be easily stored.

High reliability: Cloud disk uses a multi-copy storage mechanism to ensure high data reliability. Even in the event of hardware failure, data will not be lost, ensuring business continuity.

Fault hot migration: When a storage device fails, the cloud disk service can automatically migrate data to other available devices. The entire process does not require manual intervention and is almost imperceptible to business operations, ensuring uninterrupted business operations.

Flexible expansion: Users can adjust the storage capacity of the cloud disk at any time according to business needs, supporting elastic expansion without worrying about insufficient storage space.

3. Support heterogeneous models

Tencent Cloud Edge Availability Zone meets users' diverse computing needs in different business scenarios by providing heterogeneous models. Currently, the edge availability zone supports bare metal (X86, ARM) and GPU models

Operation Guide:

The edge availability zone shares the console with Tencent Cloud CVM. After contacting the business department to apply for whitelisting, you can purchase TEZ's bare metal and GPU resources in the CVM console.

4. Multi-tenant mode

Unlike edge boxes, Tencent Cloud Edge Availability Zone provides public cloud services and supports multi-tenant mode, allowing multiple users or business departments to share the same edge computing resources while ensuring resource isolation and data security between each tenant. This model has the following core advantages:

Elastic scaling: Tenants can flexibly adjust resource allocation according to business needs, support pay-as-you-go, and further optimize costs

Standardized deployment: Based on the standardized technical architecture of Tencent Cloud, the multi-tenant model can quickly complete resource deployment and configuration, greatly shortening the time to launch a business.

Tenant isolation: Although multiple tenants share the same physical resource pool, through virtualization technology, the resources and data of each tenant are strictly isolated and do not interfere with each other. This isolation mechanism ensures the security and privacy of data.

5. Lightweight and fast delivery

Through the lightweight and fast delivery model, Tencent Cloud Edge Availability Zone can provide users with efficient, flexible and low-cost edge computing deployment solutions. This model greatly shortens the deployment time, which is reflected in the time for building a new TEZ node or subsequent expansion, which can be controlled within two weeks.
