Ten years ago, many companies also cloud computing as a very distant future technology, but today, almost no one would question the importance of the "cloud" of.
However, the popularity of cloud computing in the process also encountered many problems. For example, because of the high professionalism, it has some learning costs, plus the difference between the various cloud service vendors
The opposite sex, which makes some businesses to the cloud it becomes powerless.
At this time, the native cloud (Cloud Native) came into being. It is understood that the native cloud technology as the birth of a new concept in the cloud computing era, popular in recent years, the industry sought after,
Mainly because the cloud can let native deploy applications and infrastructure becomes more rapid, so that enterprises can enjoy the resilience and flexibility of the cloud with a lower technology costs.
Ali cloud smart container platform is responsible spawned Yu recently in an interview with 21st Century Business Herald said that in the past seven or eight years time, native cloud technology has been rapid hair
Exhibition and had a lot of relatively mature technology. When you can say, cloud native has reshaped the entire software life cycle, and with a more open, standard way to build cloud
Generation software.
Cloud computing era container
specifically, the cloud to native container, service grid, micro service, Serverless technology as typical, wherein the container technology is considered the cornerstone of cloud native.
Yi Li, director of research and development, told reporters Ali cloud container services, container technology stems from the rise in 2013 revenue of docker, it is an application virtualization technology. Its example, saying "
If the physical machine is a single-family house, townhouse virtual machine, the container is container house. "
Yi Li further said," The reason why the vessel was described as container house, because compared to single-family villas and townhouses, the high-density container house can arrange many rooms
Interior design can be personalized, just when the construction crane container handling room can be. "
In fact, the value of container technology is also reflected in the agility, flexibility and portability three aspects. From the perspective of application architecture, container technology can easily support micro-service rack
Structure modernize applications and can respond more flexibly to changes in elasticity and expansion. At the same time, container technology also can greatly enhance the efficiency of software development, accelerate iterations.
Yi Li said container to help software developers deliver efficiency increased by 10 times, which means that companies can go faster iterative, trial and error while costs are lower. The container
The second stage elastic scaling capability capacity, it can save 50% of the cost of computing to the enterprise, which deal with like play a crucial role when the two-eleven such traffic spikes.
In addition, the infrastructure level, portability container technology can help companies more easily moved to the cloud and cloud to the ground, so that the application in its own data center and cloud dynamic migration
.
Based on the above characteristics, container technology enterprise also won the favorite. Gartner reports that by 2022 there will be 75% of the global enterprise in production will be cloud native container
Applications. Future, with the further development of container technology, but also will further promote the enterprise from the traditional infrastructure-center transition to application-centric IT architecture.
Overweight giant cloud native
Ali layout container technology dates back to the beginning of November 2011, and began commercial from December 2015, provide external container services and container mirroring service.
As witness nine double 11, Ding Yu involved in the whole process of the evolution of technology architecture and 11 double upgrade, so his understanding of container technology and more profoundly than others.
Ding Yu told reporters in the 21st Century Business Herald, Ali Baba from 2011 a container of a comprehensive and very early realized the container of 100%. After containerization system based on
A scheduling, hybrid deployment, dual 11 can save 75% of the cost, which for any company, it is very obvious technical bonus.
According to its introduction, the internal Alibaba is to promote and use of native cloud technology over the next two years, Ali Baba in the industry will be 100% cloud-native way to transport on a public cloud
Row.
In addition, while facing outside the enterprise, Ali cloud has built a more abundant cloud native product matrix, covering a total of eight categories of 20 types of products related to the underlying infrastructure,
Data intelligence, distributed applications. It is understood that Siemens, Sina Weibo, actually home, Thunder, Guotai Junan (17.890, -0.18, -1.00%), Celestica fund
Ali Cloud is a native client.
As Tencent cloud catch-up, began to vigorously layout in native cloud technology. In June, Tencent cloud, cloud Kwai Fong breath released four native cloud technology products,
Container services including enterprise-class platform TKE, container service grid, Serverless 2.0, and other one-stop DevOps.
According to Liu Ying, vice president of Tencent cloud reports, these native cloud technology products have been validated in a number of Internet businesses, government and enterprises, and traditional business services and other scenes, you can
Help companies quickly migrate from legacy architectures to cloud the native architecture, it can also help companies quickly build applications from scratch "for the cloud and students".
Currently, Tencent cloud in the cloud native areas already built up a lot of functions of both cloud orchestration platform native application. It is reported that Tencent platform includes a cloud services platform container TKE
, Development operation and maintenance platform Tencent Hub, micro-control service tool, no service suite, and large data based on the above products, artificial intelligence solutions.
Tencent cloud PaaS Zouhui product director said, Tencent cloud orchestration platform native applications within the House carries hundreds of millions of containers supporting a vast number of business-class operation and massive rise
Level, at the same time, the platform also outside the field of Internet, electricity providers, finance, government, retail and other intelligence has been applied.
Gartner data shows that by 2020, 50% of traditional applications will be cloud-old former biochemical transformation of the way. The current trend is visible, in addition to the Internet industry, the more
To the more traditional industries, such as manufacturing, real estate and government departments are embracing cloud-native technology, cloud service providers, it will also be a great opportunity and challenges
