PARASTOR200 Cloud Storage System supports Baotou City cloud construction

As a representative of the new generation of information technology, industry has a positive leading role in promoting and guiding the development of strategic emerging industries in the region. In order to get rid of the dilemma of the transformation of the old industrial city, Baotou in the wisdom industry, the dawning company took the lead in launching the construction project of the City Cloud Computing Center in China, and adopted Shuguang parastor cloud storage System to build the service platform of E-government, urban management and industrial innovation. Let the city cloud become the industrial upgrading of the booster, accelerator.

Cloud computing strategy hits the "Spark"

Baotou is an important industrial city in the Midwest of China, along with the rapid development of economic and social transformation, Baotou and other old industrial cities in China, as well as in the traditional industrial restructuring and upgrading of the transformation, the cultivation of strategic emerging industries have huge development needs. After the policy of "comprehensive transformation of science development" is introduced, the municipal government must find a way to realize management innovation, regional innovation and industrial transformation. For the above background, Baotou government embarked on the cloud computing journey, and Shuguang since launched the "City Cloud" strategy, has been looking for some representative, typical cases of urban development of cloud computing, the two sides in the strategic thinking of the collision appeared "Sparks"-Baotou cloud computing Center.

For Baotou, cloud computing will not only become a Baotou information business card, but also the Baotou industry upgrades Booster, Accelerator, and the technical difficulties of the city cloud? Where is the hand? Where is the hand? The problems have fallen on city managers.

At that time, it was Qingshan District as a pilot city of Baotou, and aggressively carried out the practice of social management innovation in street communities. And through the Expert Group field analysis, as well as to the integration of the "starting point" of the integrated evaluation, finally decided to the Qingshan District government application as the starting point, the start of "cloud computing" in the social Management Innovation Information platform for the construction of the application. At the same time, the Baotou Cloud computing center plans to gradually expand computing capacity to petajoules secondary in 3 years, storage to petabytes, and become a large and sharable information infrastructure in Baotou, autonomous regions and even north China. As a result, the storage system that supports cloud computing is a massive, dynamic platform that takes into account key factors such as data reliability, data throughput, online scalability, ease of management, and lower TCO costs.

Cloud storage Hosting "Lucheng" Dream of the Future

Aiming at the investment cost and future application category of Baotou Cloud Computing Center, Shuguang Company fully considered the "one library and three systems" of the Qingshan District, namely: Community population Information Database, basic geographic information system, social contradictory linkage system and the application demand of the Community government service pre-trial system. At the same time, both sides have made forward-looking assessments of the future commercialization of the city cloud in the areas of industrial manufacturing and SME services. Finally, the Baotou Cloud Computing Center decided to adopt Shuguang ParaStor200 cloud storage System to provide storage resources for three kinds of applications, including: high reliable, high performance e-government and enterprise user integration platform, GIS system in social management, security monitoring storage platform, industrial field and SME data backup platform.

The Shuguang ParaStor200 cloud storage System uses the horizontal extension technology, both in capacity and performance surpass the traditional NAS storage, has the extremely high reliability, the scalability, the flexibility and the economy, may provide the outstanding performance and the unified management monitoring platform. In the management aspect, the PARASTOR200 Management controller provides the command line and the graphical interface two kinds of interfaces, the embedded parallel storage management system, may carry on the Integrated monitoring management to the hardware and software; The PARASTOR200 index controller manages all the metadata and namespaces in the storage system using the active-active operation mode, which supports the fault-tolerant mechanism of multi-replica fault-tolerant and m+n-erasure codes, and automatically handles the disk failure processing. In terms of scaling, The adoption of dynamic load balancing technology in ParaStor200 allows performance and capacity to grow linearly with the increase in the number of data controllers, and no need to stop user applications during the expansion process. After the expansion, the platform up to the EB-level capacity and hundreds of GB per second of high-speed bandwidth, which fully meet the future application of the Baotou Cloud Computing Center Storage System capacity, performance and other specific requirements.

Now, after the completion of the Baotou City center, in the area of E-government, a system-complete e-government service system has been built for the Baotou government, maximizing resource sharing and information integration, providing information services for regional business, social security, housing management, earthquakes, meteorology, health care and other government departments so as to improve the government's supervision ability. , work efficiency and public service level, push the electronic government affairs of Baotou to a new step.

Baotou, is the Mongolian "Bauktou" homophonic, meaning "there are deer place." This is a very poetic, so many dreams with wings of the name. In the future, through the construction of Urban Cloud computing center of the Industrial Cloud platform, Baotou's industrial enterprises can not only achieve from research and development, manufacturing, sales, after-sales service, such as one-stop service, but also with advanced manufacturing enterprises at home and abroad, research and development institutions, excellent sales team to establish close contact, The dream of the industrial transformation of the old industrial city soon becomes a reality.
