Using Huawei Cloud OBS

Scenario

If you use Huawei Cloud OBS to host a static website whose domain name is resolved to a server deployed in the Chinese mainland, you must comply with the ICP filing requirements below.

You can see how static website hosting is configured in Figure 1.

1. Upload static website files to an OBS bucket.

2. Bind a custom domain name to invoke static website files stored in the bucket.

3. Use the domain name www.example.com to access the static website.

If www.example.com is resolved to a server deployed in the Chinese mainland, you need to apply for an ICP filing from the server provider.

ICP Filing for Domain Names

Table 1 describes the ICP filing information of website domain names and OBS bucket domain names.

Domain Name

Scenario

Example

ICP Filing

Website domain name

Used to access websites after being resolved to a server deployed in the Chinese mainland.

www.example.com

Required.

Obtain an ICP number from the MIIT.

Custom domain name

Used to invoke static website files stored in OBS buckets

www.test.com

Required.

Obtain an ICP number from the MIIT.

www.***.example.com

Not required.

You do not need to apply for an ICP filing for the custom domain name of sub-domain name, because the top-level domain name www.example.com has been recorded by the MIIT. You should use the custom domain name as the sub-domain name of the website domain name.

Adding Huawei Cloud as a Service Provider for Domain Names

For websites hosted on Huawei Cloud OBS, if the origin server is:
  • Hosted on Huawei Cloud

    If a top-level domain name is hosted on Huawei Cloud, then you must apply for an ICP filing for the top-level domain name in the Huawei Cloud (Chinese mainland) ICP filing system.

  • Not hosted on Huawei Cloud

    If neither the top-level domain name nor its sub-domain name is resolved to a server deployed on Huawei Cloud, you do not need to add Huawei Cloud as a new service provider through Huawei Cloud (Chinese mainland) ICP filing system.

    If the sub-domain name is resolved to a server deployed on Huawei Cloud, you shall add Huawei Cloud as a new service provider through Huawei Cloud (Chinese mainland) ICP filing system.
