ACP-Cloud1 Exam Dumps : ACP Cloud Computing Certification

For a service focused on storing and providing fast access to a massive amount of images, the team should use:

Object Storage Service (OSS): For scalable and cost-effective storage of large image datasets.

Elastic Compute Service (ECS): For running the application’s backend and API logic.

Content Delivery Network (CDN): To cache and accelerate image delivery globally, improving access speed for users worldwide.While Auto Scaling is useful for applications with highly variable compute demands, it is not essential for this setup based on the described requirements.

According to the Alibaba Cloud ECS documentation1, the Pay-As-You-Go billing method is flexible and suitable for short-term or uncertain workloads. However, it is also the most expensive option compared to other billing methods. To reduce the cost of Pay-As-You-Go instances, you can purchase a Savings Plan, which is a discount plan that offers lower prices for a fixed amount of hourly usage. A Savings Plan can be applied to any Pay-As-You-Go instance in the same region, regardless of the instance type, operating system, or zone. Therefore, option A is the most cost-effective billing method for a 10-day test, as it allows you to enjoy the flexibility of Pay-As-You-Go and the savings of a fixed commitment. References: Billing methods and Savings Plan.

Alibaba Cloud SLB can distribute user requests to backend ECS instances, but these ECS instances do not have to have the same specification (CPU, Memory). SLB virtualizes the added group of ECS instances in the same region into an application pool, and you can manage backend servers through either the default server group, a primary server group, or VServer groups. You can add ECS instances of different specifications to the same server group or VServer group according to your needs. SLB supports weighted round-robin (WRR) and weighted least connections (WLC) algorithms to balance the load among backend servers with different weights. References:
