Google Compute Engine
Compute Engine (IaaS), a platform from Google that allows organizations to create and manage cloud-based virtual machines, is an infrastructure as a services (IaaS).
Computing infrastructure in predefined sizes or custom machine shapes to accelerate cloud transformation. General purpose machines (E2, N1,N2,N2D) offer a good compromise between price and performance. Compute optimized machines (C2) offer high-end performance vCPUs for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) systems offer the highest amount of memory and are ideal for in-memory database applications. Accelerator optimized machines (A2) are based on A100 GPUs, and are designed for high-demanding applications. Integrate Compute services with other Google Cloud Services, such as AI/ML or data analytics. Reservations can help you ensure that your applications will have the capacity needed as they scale. You can save money by running Compute using the sustained-use discount, and you can even save more when you use the committed-use discount.

Dragonfly
Dragonfly serves as a seamless substitute for Redis, offering enhanced performance while reducing costs. It is specifically engineered to harness the capabilities of contemporary cloud infrastructure, catering to the data requirements of today’s applications, thereby liberating developers from the constraints posed by conventional in-memory data solutions. Legacy software cannot fully exploit the advantages of modern cloud technology. With its optimization for cloud environments, Dragonfly achieves an impressive 25 times more throughput and reduces snapshotting latency by 12 times compared to older in-memory data solutions like Redis, making it easier to provide the immediate responses that users demand. The traditional single-threaded architecture of Redis leads to high expenses when scaling workloads. In contrast, Dragonfly is significantly more efficient in both computation and memory usage, potentially reducing infrastructure expenses by up to 80%. Initially, Dragonfly scales vertically, only transitioning to clustering when absolutely necessary at a very high scale, which simplifies the operational framework and enhances system reliability. Consequently, developers can focus more on innovation rather than infrastructure management.

Tengine
Tengine, developed by Taobao, the largest e-commerce platform in Asia, is a web server that builds upon the Nginx HTTP server and boasts a range of advanced capabilities. This server has demonstrated exceptional stability and efficiency, serving some of the top 100 websites globally, including its parent site Taobao and tmall. Since becoming an open-source project in December 2011, Tengine has continued to thrive, with ongoing development led by a dedicated team composed of core members from Taobao, Sogou, and various other internet firms. The project fosters community involvement, encouraging contributions from developers everywhere. Notably, Tengine retains all features from Nginx-1.17.3, ensuring full compatibility with its predecessor. It supports the connect HTTP method for forward proxying and offers enhanced operational monitoring capabilities, including asynchronous logging, rollback features, DNS caching, and memory usage tracking. Furthermore, Tengine optimizes performance by allowing unbuffered uploads directly to HTTP and FastCGI backend servers, effectively reducing disk I/O operations. In addition, it incorporates multiple load balancing techniques, such as consistent hashing, session persistence, and upstream health checks, making it a robust choice for modern web applications. Overall, Tengine is an essential tool for developers seeking a reliable and feature-rich web server solution.
