The article explains how Data as a Service (DaaS) builds on data lakes and SaaS models to centralize governance, cut duplication and infrastructure costs, accelerate real‑time analytics, support cloud‑native deployments, and enable mobile/web applications through unified APIs.
Vivo’s Database‑as‑a‑Service platform tackles cloud‑native challenges by automating massive instance management with self‑service work orders and self‑healing, enabling elastic scaling through mixed‑deployment and multi‑threaded Redis tools, optimizing costs via automatic package shrinkage, and safeguarding personal data with full‑chain encryption, while outlining a roadmap toward AI‑driven fault handling, container‑based resources, and advanced privacy governance.
Vivo’s self‑built database and storage platform evolved from a fragmented 2018 system into a two‑layer DaaS solution offering unified management, automated security, high availability, and cost‑effective scaling across MySQL, Redis, TiDB, object storage, and future autonomous services within a hybrid‑cloud architecture.
