ApsaraDB for HBase Serverless Edition uses the same kernel engine as ApsaraDB for HBase Performance-enhanced Edition. It provides multiple enterprise-grade features, such as high performance, low latency, hot and cold data separation, multiple indexes, seamless migration, and active-standby disaster recovery.
Lower user costs
For new businesses, Serverless HBase is ready to use upon purchase and does not depend on other infrastructure or services. It provides stable and efficient data access. You pay only for the resources that you use.
- For scenarios with low read and write volumes, you pay only for storage, not for servers.
- For scenarios with low storage usage, you pay only for read and write requests, not for storage space.
- Compared to the cluster edition, you do not need to purchase master nodes. For the same payload, the cost is 40% lower than that of a two-node cluster and 30% lower than that of a three-node cluster.
- Automatic linear scaling reduces wasted resources compared to the cluster and self-managed editions.
Unlimited storage space and compute resources
The service provides virtually unlimited storage, eliminating the need for scaling operations and concerns about insufficient storage affecting your services. Compute resources for read and write operations also scale elastically without limits. This removes the need to schedule scaling, which greatly reduces Operations and Maintenance (O&M) costs and system risks.
Fully managed service
The professional Alibaba Cloud HBase team handles all O&M tasks, such as version upgrades, system deployments, scaling, and alert handling. This process is transparent to you and does not affect your business. The service remains continuously available to provide a truly managed experience.
