Overall Satisfaction with Huawei Cloud Network Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

This was implemented for one of our clients. Initially, we suggested a different platform but then, we came to know that they already had that platform and were experiencing some issues with it, so they wanted to switch. They wanted something with strong accessibility applications from distinct geographical zones. So we suggested this since it has one of the best networks in the industry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Accessibilty from differnet geographical locations
Robust infrastructure
Affordable pricing

Cons

It's a little tricky to use, you will need training for maintenance
UI can be changed a bit in order to make it more user-friendly
Sometimes has scaling issues

Most Important Features

Extremely affordable pricing
Easy to set up and use
Widespread network and allows accessibility from literally anywhere

Return on Investment

Solved a huge issue of accessibility from different geographical zones
Since it was cheaper than the current one, this business decision did save some costs
Helped solving concurrent transaction saving issues

Alternatives Considered

Jenkins, Terraform, by HashiCorp and Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

It stacks pretty against some of them, but the main issue this platform faces is scaling. So I feel that, if we take accessibility into account, it beats almost all of its competitors but apart from that if we take UI and flexibility into account, it lacks a lot of features as compared to its competitors.

Likelihood to Recommend

I honestly believe that it is well suited for companies, whose sole requirement is robust accessibility. Since the training part for admin takes a lot of time, I feel that it might not be suitable for small companies who are still looking to grow. Also, the product sometimes faces scaling issues and I feel like it might not be appropriate for smaller companies as they might look to expand in the future.
