01 — Overview
A managed home for your containerized apps
Cloud Container Engine (CCE) is Huawei Cloud's fully-hosted Kubernetes service. It lets you build, run and scale containerized applications without installing or operating Kubernetes yourself — Huawei manages the control plane and infrastructure, so your team focuses on applications instead of operations.
It's built for performance and scale: diverse compute (x86, Kunpeng, Ascend), zero-loss passthrough networking, and scaling in seconds to absorb traffic spikes. CCE stays current with stable Kubernetes community versions and is CNCF-certified, so there's no lock-in. DDS sets it up on Huawei Cloud and supports your team.
02 — Cluster types
Three cluster types for any need
From enterprise Kubernetes to hardware-accelerated and fully serverless — choose the cluster that fits.
CCE Turbo
Hardware-software synergy for extra performance — flattened VPC + container network (zero loss) and Kata Containers isolation.
Max performanceCCE Autopilot
Kubernetes-compatible serverless containers — fully-hosted nodes, intelligent scheduling and a dedicated HCE OS with auto vulnerability fixing.
ServerlessHighly available
Three master nodes on the control plane and multi-AZ deployment keep clusters resilient, with private clusters and RBAC.

What CCE does for your business
One-stop deploy & O&M
Create container clusters in a few clicks, then deploy and maintain your apps all within CCE.
Business impactLess operational overhead and faster delivery for your team.
Zero-loss networking & bursts
Cloud Native 2.0 flattens container networks with VPCs and ENIs, with automatic scaling in seconds.
Business impactHigh performance and smooth handling of traffic spikes.
Secure & reliable
Three master nodes, multi-AZ deployment, Kata Container isolation, private clusters and RBAC.
Business impactYou run resilient, secure services that stay up under load.
CNCF-certified, no lock-in
Huawei is a CNCF platinum member and was one of the first certified providers; CCE is fully compatible with native Kubernetes.
Business impactYour workloads stay portable — no vendor lock-in.
Built for AI & big data
Run containers on GPU-accelerated servers and share GPUs across containers, on a bare-metal NUMA architecture with InfiniBand.
Business impactYou cut idle GPU time and cost for heavy AI workloads.
Flexible billing
Yearly/monthly for stable, long-term workloads, or pay-per-use when demand fluctuates — switch between them as needs change.
Pay-per-useYearly / monthly
Business impactYou match cluster cost to real demand and avoid paying for idle capacity.
04 — Use cases
Built for cloud-native workloads
Auto scaling
Scale servers or containers in seconds as demand fluctuates, paying only for what you use.
Traffic management (Istio)
Out-of-the-box Istio for canary releases, intelligent routing and a visual app topology — no code changes.
DevOps / CI-CD
Fits existing pipelines — build images, run grayscale releases and containers in one place.
Hybrid cloud
Orchestrate apps on-premises and on cloud with flexible scheduling and multi-cloud DR.
AI computing
Run AI containers on GPU servers, sharing GPUs to cut idle time and cost.

05 — FAQ
CCE, answered
What is CCE in simple terms?
A managed home for containerized apps. Kubernetes runs and coordinates containers; operating it yourself is complex, so CCE runs it for you — create a cluster in a few clicks and deploy your apps.
Which cluster type should I choose?
CCE Standard for general enterprise Kubernetes, CCE Turbo for maximum performance with flattened networking, and CCE Autopilot for fully serverless containers. DDS helps you choose.
Is it standard Kubernetes?
Yes — CCE stays compatible with stable community Kubernetes versions and is CNCF-certified, so your workloads stay portable with no lock-in.
Which storage can containers use?
Local disks, EVS (block), OBS (object), SFS / SFS Turbo (file) and DSS. For shared multi-node access use OBS, SFS or SFS Turbo; EVS is recommended for persistent data that migrates with the container.
How is it billed?
Yearly/monthly (prepaid, lower rate for stable use) or pay-per-use (for fluctuating demand). Billed items include clusters and nodes; you can switch modes as needs change.
How does DDS help?
DDS sets up CCE on Huawei Cloud in MENA, designs your cluster, networking, storage and scaling, migrates workloads, and supports your team.
