Open business day-to-day

Chapter 177 Server

Lin Rui was not satisfied, so he closed his eyes and conceived for a while, and the brush fell down again. This time, Su Hongxiu was a bit delicate and graceful, with a hint of charm.

Lin Rui still took it aside, and closed his eyes to conceive for a while. This time it took a very long time. When he opened his eyes, there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, and there was a faint confidence on his face. Take it easy.

Hearing the rubbing sound of the pen tip on the drawing paper, Su Hongxiu's figure gradually appeared, pure and beautiful, and full of charm, the eyebrows, the expression, the lovely shy appearance, really seemed to be in the painting .

It has the eight-point charm of Su Hongxiu.

Lin Rui admired it for a while, then put away his pen, and nodded in satisfaction. This is the most satisfying painting he has drawn since he learned to paint.

……

The next morning, Lin Rui came to the company, and after dealing with the matter at hand, he asked Sun Yutong to notify Tan Yuanming and Han Yunsong to come over for a small meeting.

Regarding some simple renovations in the new office area, Han Yunsong has already contacted a specialized decoration company to take charge. Office furniture and supplies are already being selected, and the quantity of customization and purchase is being calculated.

In this regard, Han Yunsong thought very comprehensively, thought out every detail clearly, and executed it quickly, which made Lin Rui quite satisfied.

Then they began to discuss the company's development. As the optimization of Weibo became more and more perfect, the time for the release was getting closer and closer, and the preparations before the release were gradually ready.

Now there is only one thing left, which is the server. At present, it is not cost-effective to buy a server. Not to mention that it consumes a lot of money, it also takes a lot of time to install and debug. It is necessary to rent a computer room to place the server. The server is really troublesome for Lin Rui's current small company.

Then there is only one optional goal, renting a server. There are currently many large and small server operators in China, and their qualifications are also mixed. There are many in Los Angeles, not only serving local small Internet companies, but also various large and small enterprises. official website, some personal websites set up by individuals.

A male student of Lin Rui’s major seems to have set up a personal website last year and rented the bandwidth and service space for a year for only more than 200 yuan.

However, this is not considered a rented server, but a rented virtual host. A virtual host is a space divided from the server.

That is to say, a server may be divided into more than 100 virtual hosts, and the environment is all configured in the same way, which is not suitable for applications or websites that require special environmental requirements.

Moreover, the virtual host is shared with other websites. Once other websites are hacked, it is likely to affect the security of your own website.

It is much more convenient to rent a server directly, and can directly obtain full control of the server, and can run many programs and services that could not be run before.

Moreover, the server is managed by itself, and even the server operator generally does not have permission to enter the control authority, unless you authorize them to help you manipulate some things in special circumstances, which greatly enhances data security.

All right!The above is all nonsense. With the size of Lin Rui Company, it must rent a server. As for the virtual host, the bandwidth, computing power and virtual space are not enough to fit between the teeth.

The main function of the virtual host is for those individual enthusiasts to build their own personal websites for self-entertainment. If they really want to be used for commercial purposes, the number of visits is too much, and it is easy to get stuck and make you doubt your life.

However, to rent a server, you must also choose a reliable server operator. The threshold in this regard is really too low.Two college students who know a little bit of technology can do it by renting a few cabinets in the telecommunications room, but this is very unstable, and changing IP addresses randomly is common, and they may run away if they encounter some twists and turns.

You can't even get your money back, and you can't find anyone responsible, because the server you rent is also rented by your so-called service provider in the telecommunications room, and they are purely empty-handed wolves.

There are also some small-scale server operators with relatively weak technical strength, which may not be obvious in the short term. When the failure occurs, the problems will naturally increase, such as crashes, restarts, slow speeds, etc...

Then I went to the computer room to check the circuit and anti-virus... At this time, it is common to yell on the mobile phone in the middle of the night. When I encounter an irresponsible service provider who wants to run away, once the mobile phone is turned off, I will fall in love with someone.

Therefore, when renting a server, it is very important to choose a reputable and reliable service provider. Even if the price is high, it does not matter, as long as the service quality is good, there will be no failures.

Several people discussed this issue for a while, and suddenly Tan Yuanming seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Lin, have you heard of cloud services?"

"Cloud service!" Lin Rui muttered.Thoughtful: "I seem to have seen it in a technology magazine. It should be Amazon abroad that did this first. There are very few such companies in China."

Tan Yuanming nodded and said, "Amazon was the first to open up cloud services in foreign countries. It started to develop and build its own cloud computing platform in [-]."

"There are also domestic ones. Ali established a cloud computing platform in 08 and developed the Feitian system. Last year, Alibaba Cloud was officially registered as an independent company. At present, it is the earliest cloud service company established in China, and it is also the largest."

Lin Rui said thoughtfully: "You mean, let's use cloud services directly instead of renting servers by ourselves."

Tan Yuanming nodded and said: "Compared to renting servers by yourself, using cloud services has many advantages, such as rapid batch deployment at the minute level, and the ability to flexibly adjust CPU, memory, and hard disk configurations."

"It can be elastically expanded according to business needs, and can be dynamically migrated to improve reliability. Monitoring, operation and maintenance management is very convenient, and physical resources can be flexibly allocated to improve utilization..."

"Because the service is distributed on multiple servers or even multiple computer rooms, it is not easy to completely go down, and it has strong disaster resistance and fault tolerance capabilities, which can ensure long-term online and good scalability. The basic feature of cloud hosts is the distributed architecture, so Servers can be easily added to expand computing service capabilities exponentially."

"The most important thing is that it is cheap, because the service can be distributed to multiple servers, so the resources can be fully utilized, which reduces the cost of hardware, electricity and maintenance. Moreover, cloud hosts are billed according to usage. By paying less, vacant resources will not be wasted, and the real price is only one-half to one-third of the cost of renting a server."

Lin Rui also became interested. This convenient and practical method, which can also reduce operating costs, is liked by everyone who starts a company. After thinking about it, he asked with some doubts: "Why hasn't such a good technology been promoted and developed?" ?”
