Recently, in the Huawei "2012 laboratory" scientists meeting, Ren mentioned that Huawei should be integrated along the pipeline, communication network pipeline is the Pacific Ocean, is the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, the Enterprise network is the city water pipe network, terminal is the faucet. If we follow this integration, it is a conduit that is useful to us all.
A year ago, at Huawei's cloud-computing conference, Ren said that in the course of the cloud platform, we had been emphasizing that flowers should be put on cow dung, binding telecom operators to innovate, and "cloud platforms and cloud applications based on the needs of telecom operators". With other manufacturers from it to go clouds different. The cloud that we do, telecom operators can immediately use, easy to promote its maturity.
At present, the three domestic operators have launched a cloud computing strategy, telecom operators in the cloud computing is the most concerned about the construction, transformation and management of the data center, as well as the public cloud services. In the process of cloud of traditional telecommunication service, it is necessary to have deep understanding and rich experience in order to guarantee the continuity of business, data reliability and security.
Big flow of cloud support pipeline
The cloud itself can not generate traffic, but will support the above application and business, with the cloud, there will be more business innovation, lower cost, faster, supporting the pipeline to enlarge the flow, and then the pipe support large. Therefore, the cloud is a practical technology or platform, Huawei Telecom cloud computing product line Marketing engineering director Wang in an interview with the World Network of Communications, said.
The network size of telecom operators and IT systems are more complex than the general enterprise, the data center exists millions of servers, the larger the scale leads to a linear increase in complexity, so the reliability and cost of data center needs to meet the requirements of large-scale deployment.
At the same time, as a service provider, telecom operators need to provide private cloud services within the enterprise, including new IT infrastructure, transformation and ITO, BPO outsourcing services to reduce costs and improve efficiency. Externally, telecom operators need to provide public cloud services to increase revenue sources, such as providing it application services for small and medium-sized enterprises, providing IT outsourcing services to major clients, and government cloud solutions.
At present, operators are still in the exploratory phase of the public cloud, providing most of the business at the infrastructure level, including virtual hosts, online storage and cloud storage, some operators are already considering the SaaS class business. In particular, the operator in the provision of external services, its reliability and security than the enterprise requirements of the magnitude of a lot higher.
Wang said that cloud computing must have physical entities to carry forward, there is no early "foundation" project, later high-rise buildings are not built up. Telecommunications cloud includes infrastructure, storage/server/network, System management software, business applications, as well as integration services, management services and many other. At this stage, Huawei Telecom Cloud Computing product line focuses on IT infrastructure, including server, storage, network and data center management software.
Get the outfit behind
Since 2008, Huawei has fully entered the field of cloud computing, as one of Huawei's most robust product lines, has been in the Stealth Telecom cloud product line until the second half of last year, but still maintain a low-key style.
However, it is hard to conceal Huawei's expectations for the cloud computing market. Previously, Ren visited the Huawei Cloud Computing Conference, published to catch up with Cisco Google's comments, the pipeline reference to the Pacific, the torrent of information compared to the Volga River, all embodies Huawei's emphasis on cloud computing. "Now Huawei's financial and human resources, including the relationship with global operators, let us have the clout to choose the global attack, in 2011, Huawei increased the cloud computing, it technology, network security technology and other new areas of investment, in research and development investment of 23.7 billion yuan, 62,000 employees engaged in research and development." In 2008, Huawei entered the field of cloud computing fully, has invested 10000 people in it field, and invested 6000 people in the field of cloud computing. In the first half of this year, Huawei's 530 million dollar acquisition of the tournament has further enhanced its capabilities in storage and network security. ”
