Conceptual Architecture​

Cloud ZCP helps customers modernize their business services by leveraging containers and Kubernetes. This Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution enables rapid development, deployment, and management of containerized applications within Kubernetes clusters.

It offers an integrated console for managing multiple clusters, projects, and container workloads, as well as a CI/CD environment to streamline application development and deployment. Additionally, it includes monitoring tools for deployed applications and improves resource management through add-on integrations.

Container Management Service Overall Architecture

Infrastructure Architecture​

Kubernetes organizes clusters into groups of worker nodes. The Control Plane Cluster consists of Edge, Management, Monitoring, and Logging node groups, as shown below. The Data Plane Cluster includes worker nodes for business workloads, along with additional Edge and Database (DB) node groups as needed.

Kuberntes Cluster Infrastructure Architecture

  • Edge nodes: Handle Ingress Controllers to expose workloads in the Kubernetes cluster to external networks.
  • Management nodes: Host add-on services provided by the Container Management Service.
  • Monitoring nodes: Run the monitoring service for the Container Management Service.
  • Logging nodes: Run the logging service for the Container Management Service.
