Scenario

· When you need multiple similar cloud servers or environments, you can clone existing servers to quickly deploy the required configurations, applications, and settings, saving configuration time and labor costs.

· If failure or exception occurs on the server, the cloned server can quickly replace the original server, reducing service interruption time.

· In cases where servers need to be added quickly to handle increased traffic or load balancing, cloning existing servers allows servers to be scaled more quickly to meet demand.
