This article uses easy-to-understand examples to introduce the advantages of cloud servers compared with traditional servers. The content is very detailed. Interested friends can use it for reference. I hope it will be helpful to you.

There are many advantages of cloud servers, among which the most concerned point for enterprises and institutions is the economy and cheapness. On the whole, after the enterprise goes to the cloud, it does not have to consider the costs of operation and maintenance, maintenance, manpower and so on.

The advantages of CVM over traditional servers are as follows:

Cloud services have economies of scale

A decade ago, for example, a data center with 1000 servers was regarded as a large-scale data center. At that time, the hardware was expensive, the bandwidth was limited, and there was a lack of automatic management. The sharp drop in the cost of bandwidth services, highly virtualized, and automated management systems has changed what was once considered the "best economic scale" of the data center.

Some Internet giants are building super-large-scale data centers with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of servers. Bringing so many servers together can effectively reduce costs through advanced technology. As a result, these large data centers already have considerable economies of scale.

If you increase the number of servers from 1000 to 10000, you can reduce the total operating cost (TCO) by about 80%. From the perspective of energy costs, labor costs, hardware and infrastructure costs.

Server energy cost

In an inefficient data center, three years of electricity spending may be higher than that spent on large cloud data centers at the same time, which may increase the relative total cost by 20%.

When comparing power efficiency (PUE), the PUE value of large data centers is usually much lower than that of small data centers because of the cost savings. In addition, large data centers are built in energy-rich areas, and artificial intelligence technology is used in data centers to greatly improve the efficiency of use.

In terms of enterprise labor cost expenditure

If large data centers use a high degree of automated management system, the labor cost per server will be greatly reduced. In the traditional company's self-built data center, one system administrator is required for every 100-200 servers. In large data centers, in principle, a system administrator can manage thousands of servers.

Hardware and infrastructure

Not only does the price of CVM hardware itself continue to decline, but also because of the large companies building super-large data centers, there will be a lot of demand, and the price of purchasing CVMs in batches will be even lower. Therefore, adopting the mainstream cloud service providers in the market and the solutions they provide, through economies of scale and precise services, will be cheaper than enterprise-built data centers.

With regard to the advantages of cloud servers compared with traditional servers, we will share here. I hope the above content can be helpful to you and learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
