Cloud Box:Scenarios

Scenario description

Sample scenario

Benefits of using CloudBox

In scenarios that generate large volumes of data, transferring that data to the public cloud for processing can be constrained by network bandwidth, time limitations, and data transfer costs. This makes it necessary to process the data in an on-premises data center.

AI model training and rendering and data analysis of traffic videos

CloudBox enables you to process large volumes of data locally in real time and then upload the results to the Alibaba Cloud public cloud for archiving. This approach significantly reduces both data transfer costs and processing time.

Sample scenario

Benefits of using CloudBox

Some business-critical applications need to collect and process large amounts of data locally to control on-site equipment in near-real time. These use cases are highly sensitive to latency.

For example, manufacturing execution systems (MES), high-frequency trading, and medical diagnostic systems require near-real-time data computing capabilities that provide millisecond-level latency.

Industrial parks, industrial manufacturing, and warehouse management

CloudBox can be deployed to a specified on-premises data center to facilitate interaction with on-premises devices and meet the requirements of low-latency applications.

Scenario description

Sample scenario

Benefits of using CloudBox

Data must be stored in an on-premises data center in several scenarios to meet regulatory, compliance, and data security requirements.

Industry associations, transportation, airlines, and hospitals

You can deploy CloudBox in a specified on-premises data center to meet your requirements for data security. You can also use CloudBox to access a large portfolio of cloud services on the Alibaba Cloud public cloud.

Scenario description

Sample scenario

Benefits of using CloudBox

• Multiple branches are located in different regions and must be managed in a centralized manner.

• Hardware infrastructure is deployed in remote or hard-to-access locations, making on-site O&M difficult and costly.

Intelligent communities and factories.

Alibaba Cloud provides infrastructure O&M for CloudBox. You can use the Alibaba Cloud console to centrally manage your applications across all branches, which reduces O&M costs. This reduces O&M costs.
