Introduction

Cloud Container Engine (CCE) is a highly scalable, high-performance container management service. It allows you to easily run applications on hosted cloud server instance clusters. With CCE, there's no need to install, operate, and scale cluster management infrastructure. You can start and stop Docker applications, check the complete status of the cluster, and access various cloud services with simple API calls. Containers can be deployed in your cluster based on your resource and availability requirements, meeting the specific needs of your service or application.

Product architecture

The following figure describes the design and implementation process of Baidu AI Cloud's Cloud Container Engine service. The product architecture is as follows:

In the architecture diagram, containers provide a way to virtualize the operating system, running programs and their associated components in resource-isolated environments, with all referenced images stored in the image registry.

A service refers to the actual application built, consisting of clusters, nodes, containers, Baidu Load Balance (BLB), and Elastic IP (EIP). This setup allows you to easily run applications on managed cloud server instance clusters. With this service, there's no need to install, operate, or scale cluster management infrastructure. You can start and stop Docker applications, check the entire cluster's status, and utilize various cloud services through simple API calls. Containers can be deployed in your cluster based on your resource and availability needs, addressing the requirements of your service or application.
