Yimian is a leading AI-powered data analytics provider specializing in digital commerce data. To address challenges such as lengthy scaling cycles, mismatched compute and storage resources, and high maintenance costs, Yimian decided to transform their data architecture and migrate to the cloud, adopting a storage-compute separation approach. After careful evaluation, they chose Alibaba Cloud Elastic MapReduce (EMR) + JuiceFS + Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service (OSS). This article shares the architecture design for migrating Hadoop to the cloud, why they chose JuiceFS+EMR+OSS, and how they benefit from the new architecture.
