Container Cloud Product Advantages
Container Cloud is a hosting product implemented by deploying container services on clustered servers through Docker technology. You can select configurations and networks on demand, and it can be used as virtual hosting, a cloud server, or a cluster server. It is suitable for website building, running applications, configuring load balancing, and building clusters.....
West.cn Container Cloud is powerful, easy to use, easy to get started, and cost-effective. Compared with the common “server + container deployment” services currently on the market, it is more suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and individual users without technical support or an operations and maintenance team.
Advantage | Function | Description |
Cluster architecture, stable and secure | Built on cluster servers and distributed storage | The cluster architecture is more stable, and every piece of data is retained in four copies, fully ensuring data security and reliability. |
Security groups supported | Filters and controls inbound and outbound traffic, supports adding ports by range, and supports batch deployment. | |
On-demand configuration, flexible upgrade | Freely select configurations | vCPU, memory, disk size, and disk type can all be flexibly combined and purchased to make full use of resources. |
Flexible upgrade supported | Container configurations can be gradually upgraded according to needs, and you can perform operations online yourself to minimize resource waste. | |
Optional shared public IP, dedicated public IP, or private network | You can choose the appropriate network type according to actual conditions to save operation and maintenance costs. | |
Massive images, free to use | West.cn custom images | Includes common website building components, allowing you to quickly set up a website environment. |
| Docker official images | Official genuine images, one-click selection, quick installation, and arbitrary replacement. | |
Custom images | You can create an image from a deployed Container Cloud environment and easily replicate the environment template. Images support cross-cluster use, and our company provides 5GB of free image storage space. | |
Free networking, flexible deployment | Supports SDN network | Virtual switches can be added for free, private networks can be freely built, and service clusters can be easily formed. |
Simple operation, convenient management | You can complete the connection and disconnection between containers and switches with one click. | |
Supports NAT gateway | Using this function can greatly reduce network costs. | |
Supports service discovery | Enable the DNS function in a private network to communicate directly using hostnames. | |
Supports load balancing | When multiple containers are connected to one private network, you can freely add load balancers and easily add virtual services. Supports Layer 4/Layer 7 load balancing, that is, protocols such as TCP/UDP/HTTP/HTTPS. Displays real-time load balancing status and performance charts. Load balancers can work on public or private networks. They are free when working only on private networks, and SSL is supported when working on public networks. | |
Powerful functions, easy to use | Rich image resources | West.cn custom images include common website building components, allowing you to quickly set up a website environment. Massive application images, such as pre-installed Kodexplorer, turn containers into network drives in seconds and allow easy operation of container files. You can create an image from a deployed Container Cloud environment and easily replicate the environment template. |
Supports WEB console | Supports operating containers directly from the console without SSH or a public IP address. | |
Supports domain name mapping | Provides virtual hosting WEB website access services for containers using a shared IP network. | |
Supports port mapping | Provides any TCP/UDP internet services externally for containers using a shared IP network. | |
Supports scheduled tasks | Supports adding scheduled tasks, eliminating the need to install the crond service in containers and making scheduled tasks simpler. | |
Convenient management and operation | You only need to run manage the purchased containers, without handling complex underlying server maintenance work. | |
High availability and strong scalability | Powerful functions | By choosing configurations and networks on demand, it can instantly become virtual hosting, a cloud server, or a cluster server from small to large...... It can implement functions such as website building, running applications, configuring load balancing, and building clusters. |
Supports SDN network | Virtual switches can be added for free, private networks can be freely built, and service clusters can be easily formed. | |
Supports load balancing | Resources can be reasonably allocated to improve business availability and resource utilization. | |
Container-specific building block principle | If you need to add services or expand functions, simply increase the number of containers in the service cluster. | |
Cost-effective, preferred choice for low budgets | Provides free networks | Private networks are free, and containers can be connected only to a private network. |
Free switch addition | Virtual switches can be added for free to build private networks and save network costs. | |
Supports NAT gateway | As long as one container connected to the same switch has a public IP address, the other containers under that switch can access the public network. | |
Supports flexible upgrade | Container configurations can be gradually upgraded according to needs, and you can perform online operations yourself at any time to minimize resource waste. | |
Free load balancer addition | Load balancing can be deployed for free, and it can be used for free when working only on a private network. | |
Free images and storage | Provides massive free images, free custom images, and 5GB of free image storage space. | |
Add resources on demand | If you need to add services or expand functions, simply increase the number of containers in the service cluster, with no need to reserve resources in advance. | |
More suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and individual users | In summary, West.cn Container Cloud is powerful, easy to use, and cost-effective. Compared with the common “server + container deployment” services currently on the market, it is more suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and individual users without technical support or an operations and maintenance team. | |
