PolarDB-X 1.0 instances and PolarDB-X 1.0 instances are classified into different instance specifications based on the CPU processing capability, memory capacity, and disk space. Instances of multiple different specifications are provided for selection. A higher specification indicates the higher processing capability on the instance. This topic describes how to select instance specifications.

Select a type and a specification of your PolarDB-X 1.0

PolarDB-X 1.0 instances are all the dedicated instances. Each instance provides at least two nodes to ensure high availability. A PolarDB-X 1.0 provides compute-intensive services. Its processing capability is relevant to the CPU and measured by the metric: queries per second (QPS). When you select an instance, you must refer to the maximum QPS that is supported by different specifications, and the estimated maximum QPS of your business.

Select a PolarDB-X 1.0 specification

  • You must estimate the business growth in the next one to two years and determine the required maximum disk space.
  • You must estimate the maximum input/output operations per second (IOPS) that is required by one PolarDB-X 1.0.
Note We recommend that you purchase multiple PolarDB-X 1.0 instances of the small and medium specifications to support fast configuration upgrade of PolarDB-X 1.0 instances when a storage bottleneck is encountered.
