To obtain deployment materials and the complete edition of the "Customer-Owned Gateway White Paper", please contact the Multiple Network Acceleration (Tencent Cloud Jutong) team.
Product Positioning and Use Cases
The Customer-Owned Gateway is a private deployment solution for the data plane of Multiple Network Acceleration (Tencent Cloud Jutong). In this solution, the acceleration gateway is deployed in the customer's data center or a third-party cloud, while the control plane uses the Tencent Cloud public cloud controller (Console/API). Applicable scenarios: Internet of Vehicles, factories, ports, education, and finance.
Three-Tier System Architecture
The Multiple Network Acceleration (Tencent Cloud Jutong) platform employs a multi-tiered design that spans three major layers: the cloud backend, the control plane, and the data plane. It supports two gateway deployment models. For both models, the SDK, controller, and scheduling logic are identical, with the only difference being the location of the data plane.
Tencent Cloud Gateway vs. Customer-Owned Gateway
Dimension
Tencent Cloud Gateway Solution
Customer-Owned Gateway Solution
Cloud backend
Tencent central data center (console / quota / billing).
Tencent central data center (console / quota / billing).
Control plane
Tencent controller (cross-AZ).
The Tencent controller is deployed across AZs. Communication between the controller and the gateway traverses the public network using mTLS.
Forwarding plane (accelerated gateway)
Deployed in Tencent Cloud IDC, with cross-AZ / multi-region active-active capability.
Privately deployed in the customer's IDC data center.
Origin path
Private network back-to-origin (origin server in Tencent Cloud) / public network back-to-origin (origin server in customer data center).
100% of traffic is sourced via the private network, and forwarding traffic does not leave the customer's IDC.
Ops responsibility
Tencent is responsible for the deployment, upgrade, scaling, and hardware of the acceleration gateway.
The acceleration gateway is managed by the Tencent controller. The customer is responsible for the hardware/IDC. The customer performs software deployment/upgrades, and Tencent provides the materials.
