Huawei's full force cloud computing: Trinity constructs the fusion infrastructure

With the development of enterprise market and the transformation of ICT technology, many enterprises begin to search for integrated ICT solutions with end-to-end coverage. As a result, business has become one of the four major businesses in Huawei's business adjustment, making full use of cloud computing technology and business model innovation opportunities to provide data center solutions based on cloud computing technology and some cloud computing enterprise applications.

According to Huawei's 2012 earnings report, Huawei in the corporate business market to achieve sales revenue of 11.53 billion yuan, an increase of 25.8%, although Jianhua for the overall share of the total income is not high, but as the enterprise business market Forces nouvelles, Huawei is a big catch.

As one of the three product lines, it product line for the enterprise business market contribution to work, in the recent "Fifth annual cloud Computing Conference", Huawei it Cloud product line President Ningzhi-Peng in an interview with C114 said: "In the IT industry, Huawei adhering to the" streamlining it, The concept of Agile business Road is constantly introducing innovative IT infrastructure and data center solutions, and we are committed to the next generation cloud computing platform-the construction of a converged infrastructure-through a comprehensive blend of horizontal convergence, vertical convergence and access integration. ”

The cause of IT product line: stimulating customer core business

According to C114, as early as the "2011 Huawei Cloud Computing Conference and partner Conference", Huawei officially announced the establishment of IT product line, its cloud computing as an opportunity, while with Intel, SAP, CA and other more than 400 partners to provide coverage of the industry-wide end-to-end IT solutions to help customers build advanced, Efficient IT platform to improve customer internal operational efficiency and business efficiency.

According to Ningzhi-Peng, it product line under the storage, cloud computing, data Center solution three major areas, to provide customers with a wealth of cloud computing as the core of the ICT business. Huawei provides computing-centric, automated resilient resource pool solutions for customers in the cloud computing world, including IT hardware infrastructure, virtualized infrastructure, cloud infrastructure services, and cloud management.

For Huawei to enter IT industry, Ningzhi-Peng said, "a big reason is that the future of the whole world is the world of ICT integration, if only CT is not enough to support future sustainable development, we enter it, through to provide users with integrated, integrated IT solutions, real customer to achieve the transformation of the new technology architecture, So that the customer's core business to play out. ”

Data Center discovery: focus on integrating infrastructure

In Huawei it exploration, Ningzhi-Peng found that the internet changed not only the internet itself, but also the vertical industries, especially large enterprises and globalization, internationalization of enterprises. The internet has led to the rapid development of cloud computing, enabling CIOs to face key issues such as resource utilization, cost, and management of data center construction.

At present, the construction of the data center pursues the strategy of separate procurement, which reduces the initial acquisition cost of the data center to some extent; but Ningzhi-Peng points out that as the scale of the cloud data center expands, business development and change makes it increasingly complex and cumbersome, and enterprise follow-up operations and maintenance will continue to invest, And it inefficiency will eventually hinder the pace of business development.

"The traditional construction model only causes IT systems to be as bloated as a behemoth, and finally to the brink of collapse, and the generation of data and the fundamental change in how the business is handled" Ningzhi-Peng stressed, "to this end, the integration of infrastructure into the vision of IT managers, and based on Gartner forecasts, By 2015, nearly 30% of the data centres will have converged infrastructure. ”

Ningzhi-Peng pointed out that at present, the industry's integration of infrastructure development model is one of the main integration, more common in the formation of the alliance between it vendors, can provide customers from the cumbersome it day-to-day management operations, but there are still many problems, "because the basic components from various vendors, can not achieve efficient collaboration The unified management platform has limitations on the management of different manufacturers ' products, and operation and maintenance management still requires the technical knowledge and technical certification of each manufacturer's equipment, and the shifting among vendors in the process of after-sale and fault diagnosis. ”

The road of infrastructure foundry: comprehensive integration of the Trinity

In view of the above situation, Huawei has introduced the Fusioncloud Fusion cloud computing solution, can realize heterogeneous factory hardware resource pool integration, computation, storage, network architecture fusion, fixed mobile fusion cloud access. Provide a complete, efficient, easy to build, open cloud computing solution for the enterprise, providing users with resilient, automated infrastructure, on-demand service patterns and more agile IT services.

According to Ningzhi-Peng, through the integration of OpenStack Open source cloud platform technology, Fusioncloud can maximize the openness of the cloud platform to help enterprises and service providers to establish and manage private cloud, public cloud and mixed cloud services.

In the building of Huawei Fusioncloud, according to Ningzhi-Peng introduced, based on Huawei's independent intellectual property of the cloud operating system Fusionsphere, can provide a complete level of integration and cloud enterprise heterogeneous IT infrastructure capabilities to achieve horizontal integration; Based on Huawei's innovative computing, storage, Network integration Machine Fusioncube, can provide users with a very simplified one-stop integration infrastructure, to achieve vertical integration; Based on the fusionaccess virtual desktop cloud developed by Huawei, we can realize the integration of Access platform for the enterprise cloud with unified integration.

"Refactoring and upgrading traditional data centers through horizontal fusion, vertical fusion, and access merging Trinity of hardware and software integration, building an IT infrastructure that is truly resilient, on-demand, and TCO optimized for enterprise and industry customers not only brings a new application and management model to the data center, but also makes IT systems simpler and Efficient, continuously improve system performance, to help enterprises reduce investment, improve the operational efficiency of the core business. Ningzhi-Peng said.

According to Ningzhi-Peng introduced, Fusioncloud has been in the National Information Center Government Cloud Innovation Platform construction, Fujian government cloud building, the integration of Chinese and foreign transport group IT systems, China Mobile private cloud construction and other aspects have been used, "the reason why many customers choose us is because, first, Huawei continued to focus on cloud computing, Large data IT infrastructure; second, Huawei in the past more than 20 years of CT accumulation and it nearly ten years of research, these accumulation will be in the IT field of thick thin hair; third, Huawei insists on open platform to eliminate platform lock-in; four, Huawei continues to pursue the best performance, provide the best cost-effective. ”
