Study Notes
Storage Cloud Services
- Elastic Volume Service (EVS) provides scalable block storage for cloud servers
- EVS disks are reliable and offer excellent performance
- EVS disks are used in distributed file systems, development/testing, data warehousing, and HPC environments
- EVS supports various disk types for different needs and budgets
- EVS offers elastic scalability, expanding capacity on-demand without interruptions
- Real-time monitoring is available using Cloud Eye
- EVS has high security and reliability with data encryption and backups/snapshots to safeguard data
EVS Architecture
- EVS disks are like local hard drives in the cloud
- Disks need to be attached to cloud servers before use
- EVS disks can be initialized, file systems created, and used for persistent storage
- Backups and snapshots improve data reliability
EVS Performance and Disk Types
- IOPS (Input/Output Operations per Second): Number of read/write operations per second by an EVS disk
- EVS disk types are classified by I/O performance: Extreme SSD, Ultra-high I/O, General Purpose SSD, High I/O
- EVS devices are Virtual Block Devices (VBD)
- VBD support basic read/write SCSI commands
- Shared EVS disks support concurrent read/write operations and high concurrency, high performance, and high reliability
- Multiple servers can access the same shared disk simultaneously for high availability (HA)
EVS Encryption
- System disks are encrypted during server creation; data disks can be encrypted separately
- EVS encrypts stored data on disks when required
EVS Backup
- Cloud Disk Backup is provided by Cloud Backup and Recovery (CBR) to back up EVS disks while servers are running
- Backups safeguard data integrity and security from various data loss issues or damage
EVS Snapshot
- Snapshots rapidly save disk data at specified times
- Snapshots can be used to create new disks containing snapshot data
- Snapshots establish a relationship between snapshot and disk data, unlike backups which create separate copies
- Snapshots of data disks can be used as usual
Differences Between EVS Backups and EVS Snapshots
- Backups store data in OBS (Object Storage Bucket) instead of disks, ensuring data restoration on disk issues
- Snapshots reflect the disk state at any given point in time, stored on the same disk as the original data
- Snapshots are deleted when the disk is deleted; Backups remain unaffected by disk deletion
EVS Three-Copy Redundancy
- The storage system protects data by storing copies on different disks of different servers
- Data copies are distributed to prevent single point of failure
- The system ensures strong consistency between the data copies
Data Rebuild
- Data copies are scattered across nodes in the system
- If a physical server or disk fails, the storage system automatically rebuilds data concurrently on different nodes
- This avoids large amounts of data being rebuilt on a single node, maximizing performance during data restore
Object Storage Service (OBS)
- OBS is a scalable service for massive amounts of data storage
- Provides secure, reliable, and cost-effective storage for variety of users
- OBS supports various storage classes
Application Scenarios
- OBS is suitable for Big Data Analytics (mass data storage and analysis, querying historical data, analyzing behavior logs, and statistical analysis of public transactions)
- OBS is suitable for Static Website Hosting (cost-effective, highly available hosting of websites and applications )
- OBS is suitable for Enterprise Cloud Boxes (web disks for enterprises for reliability, low latency, and high concurrency)
Scalable File Service
- SFS is a high-performance shared file storage service, supporting file sharing across multiple servers
- Enables elastic scaling, high performance and high reliability
- SFS supports standard protocols like NFS for integrations with various applications
Media Processing
- SFS is tailored for services like TV stations and new media for use in content production, broadcasting, and distribution
- Used for content sharing and related file management requirements
