Kakao Cloud Documentation

Kakao Cloud DNS is a service that maps user-entered domains to the actual IP addresses of the hosting computers. It allows users to create DNS Zones and DNS records without operating their own DNS servers. Note that this service does not provide domain name purchase or renewal services; these must be handled through a separate domain registrar.

Kakao Cloud MySQL is a fully managed Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) based on the open-source MySQL Community Edition. It allows users to create MySQL instances via the console and operate them securely within a logically isolated Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environment without the need for complex installation or configuration.

Kakao Cloud File Storage is a shared file system service that allows multiple servers and applications to access data simultaneously. It is designed for workloads requiring a shared file system environment where multiple users or applications need to read and write files collaboratively.

MemStore is a fully managed in-memory NoSQL data store service provided by Kakao Cloud, operating within a VPC environment. It automates complex node provisioning, such as server creation and network configuration, to reduce the operational burden of database management. It is based on Valkey and Redis OSS, specializing in real-time processing and caching by storing data in memory for low-latency read/write operations.

Resource Explorer is a resource discovery tool provided by Kakao Cloud that allows users to search for various resources within a project using metadata such as names, tags, and IDs. It provides a single integrated interface to locate resources distributed across multiple services and enables direct navigation to the specific resource's detail page for immediate management tasks.

Kakao Cloud Virtual Machine (VM) is a virtual server service based on physical hardware systems. It provides scalable computing resources in a cloud environment, eliminating the need for upfront hardware investment and offering more flexibility and cost-efficiency compared to on-premises server operations. It is suitable for any computing environment requiring a server, such as web services, application services, and databases.

Kakao Cloud Billing provides comprehensive financial management tools, including estimated cost inquiries, invoice management, and credit management for services used within the platform. Access to Billing services is managed via IAM (Identity and Access Management) and requires a specific billing-dedicated role. Users without these permissions must request them from their organization administrator.

The Resource Explorer API is a RESTful API that allows developers to programmatically query Kakao Cloud resources and manage tags. It enables resource lookup, tag creation, management, and assignment without using the management console. All API responses are provided in JSON format.

Kakao Cloud KMS (Key Management Service) allows users to securely create, store, manage, and control encryption keys used for data encryption, decryption, and digital signatures. It enables developers to encrypt and decrypt data via API calls, removing the need to hardcode or manually manage encryption keys within application code. KMS is primarily used to protect sensitive data such as personal information in databases, files in storage, and secret values within applications to meet strict compliance and regulatory requirements.

Resource Explorer is a navigation tool in Kakao Cloud that allows users to search for cloud infrastructure objects (Resources) using metadata such as names, tags, and IDs. It provides a unified view to locate resources and jump directly to their detailed pages for further configuration or management.
