Image Management Service

Image Management Service (IMS) refers to the optional operation environment template for ECS instances, generally comprising operating systems and preloaded software. IMS includes public, private and shared images. Images help users to accomplish rapid deployment of applications on the ECS instances. You can also create private images for applications on the cloud and migration to the cloud.

Product Advantages

Rapid Deployment

Images containing applications can be used to rapidly deploy ECSs of the same applications in batches, reducing the deployment difficulty. You can create cloud servers in batches using public or private images.

Security & Reliability

All public images have passed the security test and review by eSurfing Cloud and are secure and reliable. Public images cover mainstream operating systems such as Windows, Ubuntu, and CentOS. They are licensed and strictly tested to ensure image security and stability.

Flexible Use

Users can use public images provided by eSurfing Cloud, create their own private images or use shared images of other accounts.

Unified Deployment

With IMS, application systems can be deployed and upgraded uniformly, improving O&M efficiency and ensuring consistency of application environments.

Scenarios

< >
  • Rapid Service Deployment
  • Shared Image
  • Runtime Environment Backup
  • Deploy Specific Software Environment
  • Server Environment Backup
Scenarios
  • IMS supports batch creation of ECSs. Users can make private images based on service requirements and then use the private images to create and configure ECSs running the same applications for rapid business deployment.
Product Features
  • You can create ECSs using private images created by an existing ECS. Private images cannot be used across nodes and are visible and available only to the local user.
  • It supports image information modification which allows users to modify the image information as required. You can delete private images to save hard disk space.
  • You can use an existing private image to quickly create an ECS.
