ZTE launches "Green Cloud Box" program

Recently, ZTE held a "green cloud box new generation of Low-carbon Modular data Center" Conference, the official launch of "Green Cloud container" solution to the modular design to achieve higher computational density, lower energy consumption, to help data center construction. Among them, the indoor data center Module 3 meters high can support 55U cabinets, outdoor 40-foot container can install up to 2880 servers or 26Petabytes storage.





in the whole construction process of the data center, the room occupies a large area, the power consumption is the main challenge, rapid delivery and scalability is also the focus of customer attention, ZTE Green Cloud Box program has a strong pertinence.





specifically, from the cost point of view, the power cost of data center operation is the biggest single cost, ZTE Modular data Center can save 30%-70% power cost compared with traditional mode. For example, a data center with 1400U rack space, ZTE's modular datacenter can save 34.85% capex, 44.88% opex, and 37.92% TCO compared to traditional data centers. If the electricity according to 1 yuan/degree calculation, a can accommodate 2000 Server Modular data Center can save more than 5 million yuan per year of electricity, has a significant "green" advantage, each bit of carbon emissions greatly reduced. From the footprint, the solution covers only 1/4 of the traditional data center, and the calculation density of the unit area is greatly improved.





In addition, in terms of delivery and scalability, ZTE Modular data center adopts modular design methods, standardization of components, providing an elastic combination on demand, can be "stacked" rapid deployment, convenient for customers on demand phased deployment. Compared with the traditional data center 1-2-year deployment time, the solution can be delivered quickly within 90 days, and can be installed and debugged within one week.





ZTE's vice president, Wang, said the combination of data centers and cloud computing has undergone dramatic chemical changes as the diversification of cloud computing services and the scale of cloud computing platforms have been deployed. The large-scale, low-cost, flexible, virtualization features of cloud computing require a new generation of data centers with high power density, low energy consumption, flexible inputs, and rapid deployment characteristics.





At present, the world's leading Internet and telecommunications operators have begun to gradually pilot the "new generation of Low-carbon Modular data Center", ZTE combined with customer application requirements, rapid completion of the new generation of data center product development. Wang that ZTE can use the product to achieve a variety of cloud computing services push and refinement of operational management support. A new generation of Low-carbon modular data centers will be the mainstream of applications in the next 5 years by replacing traditional data center rooms in large scale.





2011, ZTE announced its strategic foray into the cloud computing sector, taking cloud computing as one of the company's new strategic growth points and tapping into it in this scale. In this area, ZTE set up the cloud computing and IT operations department, has invested more than 3,000 people in cloud computing research and development. By the end of 2010, ZTE has applied for 107 pieces of cloud patents in China, the first domestic manufacturers. The launch of the Green Cloud container is an important step in the steady implementation of ZTE's cloud computing.
