What Are the Advantages of DES Over the Internet in Data Transmission?

Compared with the data transmission using the Internet, DES has the following advantages:

  • More efficient data transmission

    After you send your Teleports or disks to a Huawei data center, the administrator connects them to servers in the data center. Data is then transmitted over the internal network, where the transmission speed can reach 10 times of that over the Internet, reducing the time spent in data transmission.

  • Large capacity: As a single Teleport provides 60 TB or 120 TB available capacity, it is perfect for migrating massive data to the cloud.
  • High bandwidth: Teleport supports two 10GE high-speed ports.
  • Safer data transmission
    • Teleport is dust- and water-proof. It is resistant to vibration and compression. With the safety lock and alarm recording, as well as AES-256 encryption functions, Teleport secures your data during delivery.
    • After receiving your storage medium, an administrator of Huawei data center mounts it to a physical server. Then, you can upload the access keys (AK/SK) to start data transmission. In this manner, Huawei personnel have no access to your keys or data, ensuring data security during the transmission.
    • Your data is stored on Object Storage Service (OBS) which has powerful security mechanism. It supports Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, access control lists (ACL), bucket policy and slice-based data storage.
  • Cost-effectiveness
    • With pay-per-use billing mode, data transmission costs are slashed to one fifth of the high-speed Internet.
    • No maintenance costs and no maintenance personnel are required.
