What is the difference between the DCC and the general physical server?

After purchasing a DCC, you can enjoy the resources of the entire physical server exclusively in an indirect way, rather than in a direct way.

After the purchase, you need to create a dedicated virtual machine instance on this physical server through a console or API. That is to say, you actually use the virtual machine created on the dedicated physical server with Baidu’s virtualization technology.

In this way, you can not only enjoy the performance and resources of the entire physical server, but also make full use of the physical server resources with the virtualization technology. As a result, the DCC can be applied to more application scenarios, and the utilization efficiency of the physical server can be improved.

What operations can I perform on the DCC and dedicated instance?

You can create a dedicated virtual machine instance on a DCC, namely, a dedicated instance. Additionally, you can manage your DCC resources through modifying names, adding remarks, etc. Finally, you can quickly clear all dedicated virtual machine instances created on the DCC.

In another words, you can use a dedicated instance just like an ordinary BCC instance, and perform operations for the dedicated instance, including creating a system disk’s snapshot, creating an image, etc. Meanwhile, you can use it with Baidu AI Cloud’s other products.
