Terms

  • Flexus X Instance (FlexusX): FlexusX is a next-generation flexible cloud server service designed for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and developers. FlexusX provides functions similar to what ECS provides. It supports flexible vCPU/memory ratios, performance mode, and live specification change.
  • Elastic Cloud Server (ECS): ECS provides secure, scalable, on-demand compute resources, enabling you to flexibly deploy applications and workloads.
  • Elastic IP (EIP): EIP provides static public IP addresses and scalable bandwidths that enable your cloud resources to communicate with the Internet. You can easily bind an EIP to an ECS, BMS, virtual IP address, NAT gateway, or load balancer, enabling immediate Internet access.
  • NAT Gateway: Public NAT gateways translate private IP addresses into EIPs, and are used by cloud servers in a VPC for secure, cost-effective Internet access. Private NAT gateways translate between private IP addresses, and are used between VPCs or your VPC and on-premises data center to keep legacy networks running after cloud migration.
