Elastic computing architecture

The health check for customers' cloud compute resources covers Elastic Cloud Server (ECS), Bare Metal Server (BMS), Auto Scaling (AS), and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, and identifies threats to high availability (HA), deployment, and usage restrictions based on Huawei Cloud best practices. The efficiency, robustness, and security of existing services are all evaluated and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.

Network architecture

The health check for customers' cloud networking resources covers Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Elastic Load Balance (ELB), Elastic IP (EIP), Virtual Private Network (VPN), and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, and identifies threats to high availability (HA), deployment, and usage restrictions based on Huawei Cloud best practices. The efficiency, robustness, and security of existing services are all evaluated and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.

Storage architecture

The health check for customers' cloud storage resources covers Elastic Volume Service (EVS), Object Storage Service (OBS), Scalable File Service (SFS), and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, and identifies threats to high availability (HA), deployment, and usage restrictions based on Huawei Cloud best practices. The efficiency, robustness, and security of existing services are all evaluated and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.

Database architecture

The health check for customers' cloud database resources covers cloud databases, such as Relational Database Service (RDS) and Gauss DB, Document Database Service (DDS), Data Replication Service (DRS), and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, and identifies threats to high availability (HA), deployment, and usage restrictions based on Huawei Cloud best practices. The efficiency, robustness, and security of existing services are all evaluated and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.

Middleware architecture

The health check for customers' cloud middleware resources covers Distributed Cache Service (DCS), including DCS for Redis and DCS for Memcached, Distributed Message Queue (DMQ), including DMQ for Kafka and DMQ for RabbitMQ, and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, and identifies threats to high availability (HA), deployment, and usage restrictions based on Huawei Cloud best practices. The efficiency, robustness, and security of existing services are all evaluated and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.

Security architecture

The health check for customers' cloud security resources covers Anti-DDoS, Web Application Firewall (WAF), Host Security Service (HSS), and other services. It evaluates customers' requirements, identifies security policy and security management risks at the access layer, application layer, and data storage layer of customers' compute, networking, storage, middleware, and database resources and other products on the cloud. The effectiveness of customers' security services and security configurations is reviewed, and optimization recommendations are provided accordingly.
