Huawei VM and ECS are new technologies that are widely used in the development of cloud computing. With the continuous development of cloud computing technology, the use of Huawei VM and ECS has gradually penetrated into all aspects of our lives and work. But for some new users, they may not know the difference between the two concepts, so they will ask, is Huawei VM and ECS the same concept? Generally, service providers say the same two words. According to strict regulations, both words have their own clear definitions, but many people do not know them. Today, Micronet will take Huawei VM as an example to explain the difference between the two in detail.
Generally speaking, service providers refer to the virtual machine and cloud server, which are similar to independent hosts and are divided by a group of cluster servers. Each cluster server has a virtual machine image. When one of them fails, the images on other machines will be accessed automatically, which can improve the stability and security of the host. Some service providers call ECS with high configuration as server.
Strictly speaking, ECS is also called a computing unit. The computing unit is equivalent to the CPU of an ordinary computer, and its resources are very limited. To use more functions and higher performance, there are two ways to choose, one is to upgrade the ECS, the other is to deploy software that consumes more resources on the corresponding cloud services.
Huawei's cloud host service is an important part of cloud computing in infrastructure applications. This part is located at the bottom of the cloud computing pyramid, and its products mainly come from the cloud computing platform. Cloud computing host is similar to VPS, which is a virtualization technology. VPS uses virtual software, but the management method is the same as that of the host.
It can be seen that although we usually feel that the concepts and functions of the two are the same, there are differences in their specific concepts. So Micronet believes that we should decide whether to choose Huawei VM or Huawei ECS according to our own needs, which also requires users to choose when distinguishing the specific differences between the two, On the one hand, we encounter some unexpected problems in use, which may affect the process of our business at that time.
