What is CelerData Cloud BYOC?
CelerData Cloud BYOC provides a comprehensive, fully managed cloud solution meticulously developed and operated by the same team which created and maintains high-performance StarRocks Open Source Project, an analytical database. This service specifically deploys the CelerData Enterprise Edition, a robust enterprise version of StarRocks Open Source.
A key advantage of CelerData Cloud BYOC is its automated approach to infrastructure management, encompassing sizing, deployment, continuous monitoring, and routine maintenance and upgrades, all accessible through a user-friendly, click-based interface at Cloud.Celerdata.com. This extensive automation ensures that the entire operational lifecycle is managed end-to-end, empowering customers to concentrate on extracting maximum value from their data rather than dedicating resources to infrastructure management and operations.
CelerData Cloud BYOC Unique benefits
- Rapid Onboarding: Users can create services and begin operations within minutes.
- Best practice deployments: by default, the deployments are based on hardened, best practices learned from 100s of StarRocks deployments
- Automated HA and Scalability: The deployments are HA by default and automatically scale per the workload
- Enhanced Security: Cloud services are deployed directly within your existing environment, ensuring a high level of security.
- Dedicated Environments: Users are provided with fully dedicated servers, eliminating performance issues associated with "noisy neighbors."
- On-Demand: The environment can be maintained only when actively needed, optimizing resource utilization.
- Pay as you go: Customers only pay for the time the cluster is operating. When the cluster is not running, they pay a minimal charge, and no charge is the cluster is deleted
- Seamless upgrades and maintenance: Upgrades are all handled and managed by the CelerData Team. All patches (minor and major) are automatically taken care of
- Accelerated Data Pipelines: The service facilitates significantly faster data processing and delivery because of dedicated environments and high performance, secure networking.
- Low-Latency Applications: The service supports the development and deployment of applications with minimal latency.
