Zhang Guanjian: Construction and implementation of Asia's largest single cloud data center

March 30, 2012 by the China Electronic Information Industry Development Research Institute hosted the 2012 China Data Center Conference held in Beijing, the theme of the conference is a large data age of data center change, large data not only means the rapid growth of data, but also requires deepening the mining of data value, The emergence of large data will change the traditional structure of data based on the design of the data center infrastructure, databases, applications and so on. The main leaders and guests of the Conference are: Mr. Ubaogui, Deputy Chief engineer of China Institute of Electronic Information Industry development, and Mr. Chen Yujie, Chairman of the Technical Experts Committee of the Cloud Computing Alliance of Taiwan, Mr Leung, Mr. Zhang Guanjian, Executive director of the Telecommunications Media Group and vice president of the group; Mr. Paul Haverfield, chief storage consultant for HP Asia Pacific and Japan, Mr. Wei, IBM Asia Pacific Data expert, Mr. Liang Jun, Technical director of Pan-da China. Ladies and gentlemen, we discuss the new changes and trends that big data brings to IT industry.

The following is Mr. Peng, executive Director of the Telecommunications Media Group, Zhang Guanjian, vice president of the group, to introduce the construction and implementation of Asia's largest single cloud data center.

Zhang Guanjian: Leaders, ladies and gentlemen, good morning, I would like to give you a brief report of what we have done in terms of large data and cloud computing centers, and our philosophy.

After Twelve-Five planning, cloud computing and related industries are doing, but we have done some we think in the cloud computing industry, we are mainly in favor of the infrastructure, to meet the cloud, security and reliability of the angle, we have to implement, I will give you a brief account of the current project ideas.

First we site, and some of our ideas, we are mainly from five aspects. The first is high energy efficiency. There are also high stability, high security, high scalability, and high redundancy. We are in the process of large data processing infrastructure is essential, we are in the current data center, from the location of the traffic is very convenient, there is sufficient electricity, in the center of Beijing 15 minutes, the airport is very close.

We are in the computer room facilities, each Project Professional team to design planning, to promote rapid implementation, our implementation of this project only spent 18 months, from the establishment, design, financing to complete production, a total of 18 months, in this time the progress is very high, this is also a lot of advisory bodies in the industry, As well as our equipment manufacturers system vendors and so on altogether to provide a strong support.

Why do we say that? First of all, the site is located in this place, it has 110,000 volts of redundant power security, we are siting, large data centers, as well as our scalable data centers, in the electricity security we are very reliable, in this area is the first large, a total of more than 30,000 square meters. Installed capacity, cooling machine Installed capacity is also the largest water-cooled, in order to be able to save energy use of hydro. There is also the power system, the power system is also the largest, we in the inside 110,000 volts of electricity for the data center to provide power support. In addition, the number of cabinets and installed servers is the most. Our philosophy is modular design, mainly based on user demand for flexible design, the standard is built according to national P4 standards, to meet our cloud computing center, to meet cloud computing and large data reliable data processing to achieve this standard.

In addition, we have to meet the basic system of outsourcing, total investment spent 650 million, which is hardware, software spent 200 million, total investment in 850 million. This data center concept, from building, electrical appliances, air-conditioning, technology innovation and energy-saving, we do a lot of energy-saving design, we do a green, environmental protection, energy saving, and Low-carbon, in response to the call of the country.

We now Poe is 1.6, saving electricity is about 35%, equipment 3.0 is about twice times the capacitance, we in the next 5-10 years such a scalable growth and development. Other indicators, the climate in Beijing has made full use of winter, is hot and cold exchange, we have done some work.

We have designed a separate power supply for each module with a standby power supply. We also have 40 power distribution units, mutual backup, power reliable, mainly uninterruptible power supply and air-conditioning water have done a backup.

Ultra-standard power security system, security system we have done five 99.99% power warning, which comes from two real dual-road substation, for our data center to provide dual power protection. At the same time provide a high reliability of diesel power generation, the generator selects one of the best generators to generate electricity, to achieve power protection. Electricity reached 801 million volts, in the domestic power security, according to the relevant professional agencies statistics is the largest.

The alternative power supply option is to select the US Caterpillar 3516BHO generator. We store eight-hour oil storage in the north-South Oil depot, and the generators can provide oil supplements to three gas stations around four hours.

In order to improve energy efficiency, we chose York's air-conditioning frequency conversion intelligent system, has done the n+n of air-conditioning water backup, this control in the end of air-conditioning equipment to do n backup, so reliable.

Fire is the use of gas at the end of the fire, Fire is also an independent system, compared to other traditional computer room has made a reform. Security monitoring to achieve no blind spot, in all the scene, all the work environment to do without blind spot monitoring, do no one on duty, while there is no master control center. We provide a holistic solution, in addition to implementation, for all of our users to provide a solution to meet the diverse needs of users.

At the same time, we are in Shanghai, Chengdu is also building a cloud computing center, with 1.6T planning, the current phase of the 160G high-speed optical fiber processing network, the three connected to our users to provide a secure and reliable cloud infrastructure platform.

Our cloud computing centers are based on cloud computing, value-added services, and other businesses to provide an infrastructure platform. There are now McAfee Cloud security, the Asia-Pacific SaaS, and cloud storage, cloud buffers are settled here, and this is primarily to meet security and reliability.

Our philosophy is to provide such a reliable infrastructure for all open SaaS centers, providing this security and reliability to our partners as well as our integrated outsourcing services. We still have a swap cloud, which is mainly a processing of large data, where he is currently involved in two clouds doing business incubation and implementation. At the same time, the Cloud center in Beijing five other data centers to achieve dozens of g bandwidth interconnection, providing network bandwidth and services for the Beijing government, related institutions to provide relevant data storage, Beijing's government many projects are settled here.

We have a high-speed fiber network in Beijing, to our data to do backup, we next in Shanghai and Chengdu in the provision of this high-speed data backup to do, so that seamless migration for users to meet the needs of our users. At present, in addition to Beijing, we are in Shanghai, in Chengdu, Guangzhou is also doing a rapid development of cloud computing, as well as the Cloud data center strategy, according to ECHELON standards in Shanghai has been started, has been completed in Chengdu, Beijing has been completed.

We hope that through these two years of efforts, for our vast cloud computing, as well as the application of the enterprise to provide a high security and reliability of more than 100,000 square meters of infrastructure. At present, our network has been completed, the size of 160G, the total length of about 30,000 kilometers, currently connected to 18 cities.

We open a wide range of open platforms for cloud applications, as well as our various CDN enterprises, such as opening all the platform for the entire industry to provide us with a professional service.

I'll brief you on this, thank you.
