Although the distributed cloud uses public cloud technologies and products, it needs to be delivered to the customer data center. It cannot be applied for and accessed on-demand like the public cloud. Therefore, during the pre-sales phase, customers pay attention to the project's delivery cycle.
Tencent Cloud offers two local solutions, namely Cloud Dedicated Cluster (CDC) and Cloud Dedicated Zone (CDZ). From customer order placement to final delivery to the customer data center, the overall delivery cycle and delivery process are as follows:
CDZ, catering to large cloud demand scenarios for local regional customers. The delivery time is approximately 2 to 3 months. Tencent IDC implementation standards and construction processes (such as rack disaster capacity and cable routing standards) must be strictly adhered to, and the Tencent Cloud regional direct connect is required to activate. The delivery process includes process investigation > equipment arrival > sensor deployment > network equipment installation > server deployment > direct connect activation > software deployment > acceptance.
CDC, catering to small and medium cloud demand scenarios and edge cloud demand scenarios for local customers. The delivery time is approximately 2 to 4 weeks. The implementation standards can be simplified according to the customer IDC. The delivery process includes process investigation > equipment arrival > construction personnel registration > equipment installation > VPN activation > software deployment > acceptance.
