Workspace management

You can create your workspaces for different business units or project groups under your Baidu AI Cloud account, and distinguish them by the workspace name and notes. You can associate a cluster with a workspace, monitor the cluster's operating status and resource usage in the workspace, or remove clusters that are no longer used. You can view the number of applications present in your workspace and manage them at any time.

Cluster management

You can import Kubernetes clusters into CNAP, view all imported clusters in the cluster management, and monitor the operating status and resource usage of the clusters. You can enter the cluster console through the cluster management to directly manage the underlying resources or Kubernetes objects.

Application hosting

You can create apps in your workspace, including general apps and microservice apps. You can create deploy groups for your apps to deploy them to an environment and cluster. In the deploy group, you can define the method of application deployment, including the deployed container image, the amount of allocated resources, the running commands and parameters, and other advanced configurations. You can add multiple deploy groups after the application is created, and update the deploy groups at any time when the application releases a new version or changes the configuration. The deploy group receives requests from the public network or VPC through the access portal which specifies the access method, protocol and port. You can add, update, or delete the access portal at any time. After the application is created and deployed, you can monitor the application through CNAP's application hosting and track detailed logs of application changes. Meanwhile, CNAP provides unified repository and configuration management. You can uniformly manage the access credentials of the image repository and the configuration files used in application deployment so that you can use them directly when deploying and updating applications.

Microservice management

You can view the list and instance information of the registered services in the microservice management module. Service governance features include routing, throttling, downgrade and authentication, and provide instance-level or method-level governance policy configuration. The service topology provides service topology information over a period of time, including features of call relationships between superior and subordinate, call monitoring indicator trend, call chain, interface analysis, and problem tracking.

Component center

CNAP packages some common middleware applications into components and provides them to users in the component center to reduce your overall cost of use. You can select the required component through the component center, define the component configuration according to the requirements, and deploy it to the required cluster so that other applications in the same cluster or VPC can access the component. You can view the running status of the deployed components in the component center, and delete unnecessary components at any time.
