In recent years, the discovery of Hong Kong's virtual machine by Micronet has caused a great deal of discussion in the domestic webmaster community, because Hong Kong's virtual machine does not need to be filed, which saves a lot of time and labor costs for individual webmasters. At the same time, with the introduction of the concept of virtual machine, Hong Kong virtual machine also came into being, once again pushing the Hong Kong host market to the forefront. Many people think that Hong Kong virtual machine has many advantages, but is it really as amazing as they say? Micronic networks don't think so.
The so-called virtual machine has three functions: computing, storage and network resources. Virtual machine has also developed in recent years. At present, many well-known IDC enterprises in China have launched their own virtual machines, such as XX virtual machine. The online slogans are really overwhelming.
Naturally, for webmasters who like to use Hong Kong hosts, they pay more attention to Hong Kong's cloud hosts. And many friends have come to ask, "which virtual machine in Hong Kong is good", "which virtual machine is good", and so on, it is not enough. Are Hong Kong's virtual machines so amazing?
First, cloud hosts are more competitive and reliable in price. In terms of performance, it has the advantages of high performance, exclusive hardware resources, and exclusive bandwidth. For example, the RAKsmart virtual machine supports all applications, including operating systems, DNS, firewalls, and so on. Similarly, Hong Kong VM also has these common advantages.
Second, the Hong Kong data center has natural geographical advantages. Therefore, the cloud computing host in Hong Kong is favored by webmasters and enterprises. It not only meets the needs of the website that can be expanded at any time in the later stage of its scale development, but also enables its cluster characteristics to maintain good stability and security. Compared with the traditional host space, it also has advantages.
In addition, the Hong Kong government also strongly supports the development of the IDC market in Hong Kong, not only providing convenience and discount in site selection and price, but also providing free cooling power supply and other measures to attract a large number of cloud service providers. At the same time, Hong Kong has many world-famous data centers, advanced infrastructure construction, 99.99% power supply, strong scientific and technological strength and other core advantages. Once these data centers join cloud service providers, they will greatly enhance the global core competitiveness of their cloud host products.
However, even though Hong Kong's virtual machine has many advantages, there are still some problems that need to be gradually improved. This is reflected in the following two aspects.
First, the problem of access lines. As we all know, there are three types of bandwidth in Hong Kong. In order to reduce bandwidth costs, most cloud service providers choose domestic bandwidth. Therefore, the Hong Kong line needs to go around the international line and back to China, which leads to the use of the Hong Kong virtual machine, which may have some impact on the access speed and stability of the website.
Second, the data center in Hong Kong is relatively single. Once a node goes wrong, it will affect the access of the whole network, so the risk of downtime will be high. In addition, a single data center in Hong Kong cannot perform off-site backup. Therefore, for Hong Kong virtual machine users, the security of website data cannot be reliably guaranteed (you should know that website data backup is a very important job for webmasters), which is also an urgent problem to be solved.
Therefore, against the background of high advantages, Hong Kong's virtual machine has many disadvantages. However, the times are developing, so is the IDC industry. If there are problems, they should be solved in time, so as to ensure the healthy and stable development of the Hong Kong virtual machine market. It takes time to solve this problem, requires multi sectoral cooperation, and has a long way to go. So for our vast webmaster users, how should we choose?
Although Hong Kong virtual machine has some disadvantages, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages in general. As can be seen from the usage of Hong Kong virtual machine users in recent years, the following points should be noted when selecting Hong Kong virtual machine.
First, choose Hong Kong ECS as needed to avoid blind obedience
First, have a comprehensive understanding of the website's performance, scale and positioning. Therefore, the bandwidth and configuration of the Hong Kong virtual machine should be reasonably selected to avoid the embarrassing situation of insufficient or wasted server resources.
Second, look more at the industry reputation of virtual machine service providers
At present, many host companies provide Hong Kong virtual machines. In addition to the price, they also need to compare the server configuration, performance, access speed and cost performance. Of course, if we don't know how to use it, we should try to see the comments of other users, which can help us better distinguish the quality of the virtual machine brand.
Third, technical strength must be strong
With regard to this problem, whether you use the virtual machine in Hong Kong, the virtual machine in Hong Kong or the server, it is the same, because it is a long-term use process. Therefore, it is better to choose a more qualified host company with better after-sales service, so that we can have a strong technical guarantee, so that our website can run safely, stably and healthily without worries.
In a word, the virtual machine in Hong Kong is still in the development stage, and it is normal for the survival of the fittest. For our users, the choice of virtual machine products must be based on the size of the website itself. The best one is suitable for them. For Huawei cloud service providers, from the perspective of users, they should constantly break through and solve the problems encountered in the development of Hong Kong virtual machines, strive to optimize and upgrade the performance of virtual machine products, and meet the needs of various users to build stations to the maximum extent. The last is the sound development of the IDC market in Hong Kong and even the world. In this regard, Huawei Cloud's insistence on independent research and development and continuous updating is a good interpretation of this point. It is the best way to survive to make the products that users need most, at least according to the view of Micronet.
After reading this article, Micronet believes that you will have a deeper understanding of Hong Kong ECS, which can help you have an updated and more comprehensive consideration when purchasing virtual machines.
