Overview
TDCC (Tencent Kubernetes Engine Distributed Cloud Center, TDCC) is a Tencent's application management platform for multi-cloud and multi-cluster scenarios, enabling users to extend cloud-native applications to the distributed cloud. It provides unified management and operations for distributed cloud resources from a global perspective, allowing for easy global deployment of your business and operationality everywhere.
TDCC Distributed Cloud Center bridges the gap between public clouds, private clouds, and edge clouds, delivering mature clusters, networks, storage, microservices, and operation public cloud products and services to locations closer to users and data. It ensures a consistent control plane across different cloud infrastructures and provides reliability and security compliance guarantees, meeting the needs of enterprise users for multi-cloud management, application governance, and high-availability disaster recovery.
The core features of the TDCC Distributed Cloud Center are now open source. Vendors and customers interested in building their own container application platforms can collaborate through open-source projects, ensuring technological neutrality to avoid vendor lock-in.

Product Features
Infrastructure Management
Easily manage massive Kubernetes clusters, whether they are running on public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, or edge cloud. You can manage and access them as if they are running locally and use standard interfaces to centrally deploy and coordinate multi-cluster applications and services.
Distributed Application Management
Tencent Kubernetes Engine Distributed Cloud Center uses a distributed application management model based on cloud-native design. It expands native K8s resources to multiple cloud and multiple clusters, supports distributing various resources to different clusters, including Kubernetes native Deployment/StatefulSet/ConfigMap/Secret, custom CRDs and third-party CRD resources.
Global Application Distribution Management
Supports multi-cluster deployment of cloud-native type applications, multi-cluster distribution strategy, differentiated strategy, and full and gray-scale updates across clusters.
Traffic Governance
Leveraging fully managed service-based TCM capabilities for cross-cluster, heterogeneous application uniform discovery management accelerates cloud-native migration. For more details, see TCM.
Application Marketplace
Provides a cloud-native application marketplace to manage various cloud-native products and services (Helm Chart), supporting the deployment and management of applications to clusters across multiple regions and different cloud service providers.
Ops Management
Supports comprehensive log management, audit management, event management, monitoring and alarming features using the registered cluster capabilities, based on public cloud services. It accommodates operations across various regions and cloud service providers.
Security Management
Unified authentication and authorization management for multi-clusters, centrally managing users, roles, and policies. It supports management, rotation, and revocation of users' access credentials, along with unified permission issuance and synchronization capability.
Clusternet
Tencent Cloud has contributed the core features of TDCC to the open-source Clusternet multi-cluster application governance project. Tencent Cloud contributes its mature product capabilities to the community. Any vendor and customer with the intent to build a container application platform can, by integrating Clusternet, quickly achieve multi-cluster management and application governance capabilities, ensuring technology neutrality and avoiding vendor lock-in.
Clusternet is designed for hybrid cloud, distributed cloud and edge computing scenarios, supports integration and management of massive clusters. Its flexible cluster registration capabilities can adapt to cluster management requirements under various complex network conditions. It is compatible with cloud-native Kubernetes APIs to reduce users’ management and Ops costs, and to accelerate the transformation of cloud-native applications.
Clusternet offers users the following services:
One-Stop Management of Various Kubernetes Clusters:Clusternet supports managing clusters in both Pull and Push modes. Even if a cluster operates within a VPC intranet, at the edge, or behind a firewall, Clusternet can still establish network tunnels to manage the cluster.
Supports Cross-Cluster Service Discovery and Intercommunication:It provides cross-cluster access routing even in the absence of a dedicated network channel.
Fully Compatible with Native Kubernetes APIs:It is fully compatible with standard Kubernetes APIs, such as Deployment, StatefulSet, and DaemonSet, and it also encompasses user-defined CRDs. To upgrade from a single-cluster application to a multi-cluster application, users only need to make simple configurations, without learning complex multi-cluster APIs.
Supports the Deployment of Helm Chart, Native Kubernetes Applications, and Self-Defined CRDs:Supports Helm chart type applications, including chart distribution, differentiated configuration, and status aggregation. The capabilities are consistent with native Kubernetes APIs.
Rich and Flexible Configuration Management:It offers various types of configuration policies, allowing users to flexibly combine these configurations to achieve complex business scenarios, such as multi-cluster canary releases.
Addon Capability, Simple Architecture: It adopts the Aggregated ApiServer method and does not rely on additional storage. The architecture is straightforward, easy to deploy, and significantly reduces operational complexity.
Convenient Access: Clusternet provides a comprehensive docking capability, supports the kubectl plugin and client-go, facilitates one-click business integration, and is capable of managing multiple clusters.
Related Concepts
Container
A container packages an application and its dependencies into an image, and then uses the image to generate a resource-isolated environment to run the application. This allows the application to run independently in a consistent environment in a simple and efficient manner.
Container is a lightweight virtualization technology at the operating system level for isolating and controlling system resources, making global resources only usable in the container processes.
Kubernetes
Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestration and scheduling engine developed by Google based on Borg, is one of the most important components of the CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation). It offers production-level application orchestration, container scheduling, service discovery, and automatic scaling capabilities. For more details, please refer to Official Kubernetes Documentation.
