Huawei to build a comprehensive cloud data center solution

Cloud computing is the core of the fourth information technology revolution, and the next 3-5 years will be the focus of global competition. In the three technology areas of cloud computing-smart terminals, broadband networks and data centers-the datacenter is at the core. As the basic platform of cloud computing, data center is not only the guarantee of the world to seize the voice of cloud computing era, but also the key point of guaranteeing information security and realizing autonomous controllable.

However, traditional data centers face many challenges in energy consumption, efficiency, resource integration and rapid response. How to quickly and efficiently complete the expansion of the data center in a short time to meet business focus and development needs, while taking into account the green energy and low-carbon economy, it planning and management of the first issue.

So how will future data centers evolve with the help of cloud computing? In this respect, Huawei Enterprise IT product line marketing technology Director Yang Zhitaing in an interview with C114, said the traditional data center will gradually transform into the cloud data center.

Data Center "cloud"

As we all know, along with the rapid development of the Internet, the pace of enterprise informatization has been accelerating. The application and management mode of IT resources is changing profoundly, and it will gradually develop from independent and decentralized functional resources into a service-oriented innovation resource with data center as its bearing platform. The data center has become an economic infrastructure like transportation and energy.

But in the big data age, traditional data centers are facing unprecedented challenges, Yang Zhitaing pointed out that the future data center will continue to grow in size, complexity will continue to increase, while the traditional data center facing the high cost of construction, long cycle, high energy consumption, low operational efficiency, poor scalability problems, These seriously restrict the business development of enterprises.

How to create an efficient, flexible, reliable, low-cost, scalable new generation of data center has become the common challenges facing the industry, Yang Zhitaing, "to build cloud data center is the key to solve the above problems, the application of cloud computing technology is to solve the traditional data center development bottleneck of a sharp weapon." "He further pointed out that cloud computing virtualization technology, fully improve the utilization of equipment resources, not only greatly reduce the cost of equipment, but also make large-scale storage and calculation more convenient, while significantly reducing energy consumption." Therefore, the green energy conservation concept and the Virtualization technology improvement unifies, will drive the traditional data center to the cloud Computing data Center direction development.

Cloud computing is not really that mysterious, in Yang Zhitaing's view, cloud computing is to continue to infrastructure, it facilities, applications to meet on-demand configuration and on-demand billing requirements, including Agile platform services, multi-industry business applications, borderless network capabilities and pan-terminal access capabilities. He stressed that for the size of customers, because these customers demand for business, high quality requirements, but also limited by the cost of capital pressure, so the cloud data center construction idea is the most suitable.

Huawei to build a comprehensive data center solution

Based on the construction of cloud computing data center, Huawei divides cloud data center into four levels: including data center room, IT infrastructure, platform software, cloud data center business.

According to Yang Zhitaing, Huawei has its own research and development cloud computing platform in the application platform.

How to find the development direction in the data center market, Huawei chooses to start from itself. Yang Zhitaing Frankly, Huawei Data Center solution is also constantly from its internal IT experience to summarize, and then internalization into the data center program design and construction. According to his introduction, at present, Huawei already has two first class room, 13 second class room, 50 third class room and 200 fourth class room.

In addition, in safeguarding the security of the Cloud data center, Yang Zhitaing that "Huawei's private cloud security has been quite mature." "He said at present, Huawei's private cloud is dominated by desktop cloud, Huawei has already implemented 10,000 desktop cloud deployments, two will have 60,000 employees using the desktop cloud environment, the world's largest cloud desktop office environment, and Huawei is trying to expand the desktop cloud to other customers.

As of now, Huawei has launched a comprehensive data center solution, including data center room solutions, Cloud computing solutions, energy saving and emission reduction programs, and refined operations, according to C114.

For example, in the data center room solution, Yang Zhitaing introduces Huawei's new generation of IDs series data room solutions, including container room and modular room two. Among them, the container room IDS1000 can be used in the outdoor without room scene, reduce the pressure of the customers in the room location, help customers to shorten the original half of the construction cycle to two months, and energy consumption is only the traditional computer room 50%; modular room IDS2000 using a hot and cold duct isolation, accurate air supply, Outdoor cold, such as leading refrigeration technology, to ensure that pue<1.2, can be applied to large and medium-sized data center building blocks and expansion.

Huawei becomes China Mobile IDC partner

Not only has a comprehensive data center solution been developed, but Huawei has many successful cases. At present, Huawei Data center solutions have been widely used in government, operators, finance, medical and other industries. According to Yang Zhitaing, Huawei has become a partner in China's mobile data center. ”

When it comes to becoming a partner in the world's largest mobile operator data center, "First, Huawei has a strong and rapid delivery capability, and secondly, Huawei has a wealth of experience from infrastructure to park construction, as well as a strong operational and maintenance management system and professional consulting services," Yang Zhitaing concluded. The ability to make decisions quickly, we do it as long as there is a 50% chance. ”

As for the existing data center is to transform or new dilemma, Yang Zhitaing suggested, "If the original data Center for transformation, not only the transformation is more difficult, and the transformation of space is limited, so new than the transformation of good." He noted, in particular, that power is the key to transforming and creating new data centers.

It is undeniable that the advent of the cloud computing era is indeed a problem for the development of the data center. Yang Zhitaing called for next-generation data center solutions that need to take into account the future trends of data centers, help customers effectively reduce data center construction and operating costs, the cloud data center's construction program can meet the rapid, low-cost, low-power, flexible deployment, fine management needs, Cloud data centers will be a major trend in future data development.
