Differences vs Huawei

  • Group templates and update policies differ.

Migration to Huawei

  • Map compute shape/runtime, OS-image behavior, scaling policy, and placement/isolation semantics. For Google Cloud Managed Instance Groups, the direct Huawei equivalence layer is AS; validate feature-by-feature parity for control plane, data plane, and operational behavior before cutover.
  • Use a composed Huawei migration pattern where needed: AS + ECS + CES. Treat AS as the core equivalent capability and use the additional services to cover integration, security, observability, and governance gaps.
  • Pricing model difference: Google Cloud usually bills primarily per-second runtime/compute units plus storage and network transfer; Huawei usually bills ECS/BMS/CCE/CCI runtime with EVS, bandwidth/traffic, and optional management add-ons. Recalculate TCO with peak load, request volume, retention period, and cross-region/interconnect traffic before production migration.
