What Is CCE?

Cloud Container Engine (CCE) is a Kubernetes cluster hosting service for enterprises. It manages the entire lifecycle of containerized applications and delivers scalable, high-performance solutions for deploying and managing cloud native applications.

Why CCE?

CCE is a one-stop platform integrating compute (ECS), networking (VPC, EIP, and ELB), storage (EVS, SFS, and OBS), and many other services. Multi-AZ, multi-region disaster recovery (DR) ensures high availability (HA) of Kubernetes clusters.

CCE Cluster Types

There are multiple types of CCE clusters.

Category

Subcategory

CCE Standard

Positioning

-

Standard clusters that provide highly reliable and secure containers for commercial use

Application scenario

-

For users who expect to use container clusters to manage applications, obtain elastic compute resources, and enable simplified management on compute, network, and storage resources

Specification difference

Network model

Cloud native 1.0 networks: for scenarios where requirements on performance are not high and there are not so many containers

  • Tunnel network
  • Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network

hostPort

Supported

Network performance

The container network is overlaid with the VPC network, causing certain performance loss.

Network isolation

  • Tunnel network model: network policies supported for communications within a cluster
  • VPC network model: isolation not supported

Container resource isolation

cgroups are used to isolate common containers.

Edge infrastructure management

Not supported
