Baidu Search Service Compute Management: Architecture, Practices, and Cloud‑Native Techniques

Baidu’s Search Architecture team evolved compute management from static physical‑machine deployment to cloud‑native mixed deployment, employing a governance system that combines elastic containers, Service Mesh, and committee‑driven operations, while leveraging tidal scaling, container tiering, performance‑curve‑based VPA/HPA, and fine‑grained traffic scheduling to deliver cost‑effective, flexible, and performance‑driven resource allocation across both temporal and task‑type dimensions.
