Instance non-produksi
Jika ingin menggunakan instance penahapan atau pengujian, Anda dapat membuat instance non-produksi menggunakan proses standar untuk membuat instance Looker (Google Cloud core), dan memilih edisi non-produksi yang sesuai. Penagihan untuk instance non-produksi ini akan sama dengan instance Looker (Google Cloud core) lainnya. Lihat halaman harga Looker (Google Cloud core) untuk mengetahui detail selengkapnya.
Jenis edisi instance non-produksi sama dengan edisi yang tersedia untuk instance produksi, dan mencakup hal berikut:
Fungsi yang tersedia untuk setiap edisi non-produksi sama dengan fungsi yang tersedia untuk edisi produksi. Instance Looker (Google Cloud core) non-produksi juga dapat memiliki jenis koneksi jaringan yang sama dengan instance produksi. Dengan memiliki fungsi yang sama di semua lingkungan, Anda dapat mengonfigurasi lingkungan penahapan agar sesuai dengan lingkungan produksi, dan menguji update sebelum men-deploy ke instance produksi.
Karakteristik instance non-produksi
Berikut adalah hal-hal yang perlu diketahui tentang instance Looker (Google Cloud core) non-produksi:
- Instance non-produksi tidak tercakup dalam SLA Google.
- Ppenskalaan horizontal tidak dianggap sebagai kasus penggunaan non-produksi. Jika Anda perlu menyebarkan beban instance dan menawarkan distribusi geografis tertentu di beberapa instance Looker (Google Cloud core) untuk kasus penggunaan produksi, Anda harus membeli instance tambahan dari edisi Looker (Google Cloud core) produksi yang ada.
- Instance Looker (Google Cloud core) non-produksi tidak dapat digunakan sebagai pengganti instance produksi atau untuk tujuan produksi.
- Semua instance Looker (Google Cloud core) produksi dan non-produksi mematuhi siklus rilis yang sama. Anda dapat mengonfigurasi setelan pemeliharaan instance non-produksi agar sesuai dengan setelan pemeliharaan instance produksi.
Instance Uji Coba
Jika ingin mencoba Looker (Google Cloud core), Anda dapat membuat instance edisi Standar, Enterprise, atau Embed uji coba yang akan memiliki dukungan fitur yang sama dengan edisi produksi yang sesuai. Edisi uji coba memiliki batasan berikut:
- Instance edisi uji coba berlaku selama 90 hari. Setelah 90 hari berlalu, Anda harus menghapus atau mengupgrade instance.
- Tidak ada opsi untuk mengupgrade ke instance edisi non-uji coba secara langsung. Untuk mengupgrade, Anda harus membuat instance baru, lalu mengimpor data Anda dari instance uji coba.
- Untuk setiap kombinasi Google Cloud project dan Google Cloud region, ada batasan satu uji coba aktif untuk setiap jenis edisi.
- Lisensi Data Studio Pro tidak disertakan dengan edisi uji coba.
