In digital business scenarios, the coordinated use of object storage services (OSS) and servers can significantly improve data management and business operation efficiency. The two build an efficient and stable architecture through functional division of labor and data interaction. The following analyzes their matching methods from the core application level.
Reasonable resource allocation: The server transfers unstructured data storage tasks such as pictures, videos, and logs to OSS. The massive storage space and high scalability of OSS are used to reduce server storage pressure. The server only retains system files and core data that need to be processed quickly to achieve reasonable allocation of storage resources and reduce local storage costs.
Dynamic call: When the business is running, the server quickly calls OSS data through the API interface. When a user requests to access a web page image, the server directly obtains the data from OSS and returns it to the user without storing a large number of copies locally. This method reduces the server data transmission load, while ensuring that users obtain the latest version of data and improving service response speed.
Cross-region collaboration: In multi-region deployment scenarios, OSS acts as a unified data center and cooperates with servers in each region. Servers in different regions can read OSS data nearby to avoid cross-region data transmission delays. For example, during e-commerce promotions, servers in various locations synchronously obtain product images and activity materials from OSS to ensure efficient business operation.
Backup and disaster recovery: The server regularly backs up important data to OSS, using the high reliability of OSS to ensure data security. In the event of server failure or data loss, data can be quickly restored from OSS. OSS's multi-copy storage and off-site disaster recovery capabilities provide redundant protection for server data and reduce the risk of business interruption.
OSS and servers work closely together to form a solution with complementary advantages, which can not only improve data storage and access efficiency, but also enhance the stability and reliability of business systems to meet the diverse business needs of enterprises.
