Pain Points in IT Operations
As a global digital marketing platform, there is a need for a new IT architecture that extends and connects multiple regions of AWS overseas and Alibaba Cloud both domestically and internationally. Additionally, it must comply with policy requirements related to data sovereignty and governance at both domestic and international levels. This architecture should include end-to-end secure data transport channels and provide both connectivity and controlled business access permissions. By deploying a multi-cloud architecture, we hope to address the following issues:
- Design a secure and globally scalable network architecture that spans cloud regions and enables rapid multi-cloud expansion.
- Resolve the issue of inefficient and low-latency access between multiple clouds and regions.
- Establish fast access channels connecting domestic data centers to AWS and Alibaba Cloud.
- Secure channels: Data transmission between multiple clouds must be achieved through secure and encryptable channels.
- Access Control: Implement data isolation across different regions of multiple clouds based on business and policy requirements.
- Cater to the key tenets of global operations—simplicity, automation, visibility, and control.
