ZTE to compete for cloud computing market micro-modular data center will become mainstream

May 29 Evening News (Cao Tianpeng) cloud computing has become a new battleground for telecoms equipment providers in the context of slowing growth in the traditional telecoms sector.

In a conference room at the National Convention Center stands a length of about 1 meters wide, high 2 meters of black large iron box, iron box with a keyboard-like server, they together formed a "super computer", this is ZTE in the May 24 cloud Computing Conference on the new "cloud platform" of the true colors.

In ZTE Cloud computing products general Manager Ye Yuwen, with green energy-saving, rapid installation and other advantages of micro-modular Data Center-----usapphire (High Efficiency Data center) will become ZTE in the future competition in the sharp weapon.

Micro modules will become mainstream

The release of Usapphire products for different enterprise size and use characteristics, divided into "micro-Cloud" data center (mini), "micro-module" Data Center (micromodular) and "Cloud Box" data Center (Container) three models.

Ye Yuwen focuses on the Usapphire "micro-Cloud" data center (mini). Because it is mainly aimed at less personnel enterprises, especially in the start-up period of small enterprises are its main customer base. "' Micro-cloud ' is the main feature of the Open box is used, software hardware integration, in the data center deployment time from the traditional 1 months down to 3 hours, can almost achieve ' bag start ' effect, for small enterprises greatly reduce operating costs. ”

The modular data center represents the future direction of the data center, and this is where the micro-module data center is based, Ye Yuwen expects the microchip to become a mainstream in the last 5 years and will massively replace the traditional data center room.

In Ye Yuwen's view, although the current data center stock market is still dominated by the traditional, but operators recently planned data center base are considering a new model, that is, large-scale application scenarios using micro-modular approach. Compared with the green cloud box, which was put forward by ZTE last year, the container was accepted by more customers overseas because of the cumbersome building. Looking at the domestic, micro-module is in fact the container in the domestic localization of products.

"Many local land resources are scarce, especially North Canton, the Pearl River Delta, the Yangtze River delta area, with container shop words difficult to withstand the expensive land rent, and micro-module product form coincides with the domestic market." "Even the land-rich Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and other frontier areas are suitable for the construction of containers, but the network can not be followed up." ”

Usapphire Spell Efficient

As we all know, the construction and operation of data center in the process of room occupancy area, delivery speed, expansion capacity, power consumption and other issues are the main challenges faced by enterprises, but also focus. At present, at home and abroad, leading Internet and telecom operators as well as some large enterprises have begun to pilot a new generation of Low-carbon modular data centers.

Compared with the traditional data center products, Ye Yuwen said that Usapphire has the characteristics of short construction period, small footprint, low operating cost, flexible deployment and small energy consumption. In addition, ZTE Usapphire products and similar cloud computing platform products, in terms of hardware and software brands, cost advantages are also very obvious.

"With the growing trend of large-scale intensive deployment of data centers, there has been a qualitative change in the way data centers are built and operated, and the Usapphire solution, which is the core of efficiency, can be said to occupy the position of revolutionaries." "Ye Yuwen said.

As the infrastructure of this High-efficiency data center, modular data center adopts modular design method, which increases the density of the unit area, and uses "building blocks" to cooperate with the customers ' investment and business development, and to improve the module utilization greatly.

"The program will condense the traditional deployment time of 1-2 years to 90 days, and its modular data center footprint is only 1/4 of the traditional data center, while the same rack space, the modular data center can save 37.92% TCO, while bringing ROI." In addition, IDCIM management system also effectively reduce operating costs, a traditional data center, a maintenance staff can manage 30 servers, while Usapphire's IDCIM management system can manage 300 units. ”

ZTE has also revealed that Usapphire has in fact shown excellent results in the commercial field, such as the Ainic Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., its simple and flexible installation deployment, so that the entire company designers quickly use the Virtual Desktop cloud computing business, and administrators can be very convenient in the background to see physical facilities, It equipment usage, and conduct business deployment.

Optimistic about the market of enterprises

The market has become the darling of the current development stage of cloud computing, the day of the press conference, ZTE has made no secret of the market. In ZTE's view, cloud computing is a technological and business model of change, with this change, ZTE to achieve the telecommunications market to the enterprise and enterprise market development blueprint.

The government market for cloud computing is also a big cake, in intelligent transportation, intelligence logistics, telemedicine and other applications, are able to cloud the way to provide services to enterprises and clients, ZTE will be in the governmental and enterprise network level market, from cloud terminals and cloud applications and other dimensions to achieve new expansion.

At the ITU exhibition last year, ZTE, based on cloud computing, fully demonstrated the End-to-end solution of the Enterprise and Enterprise network, in which the world's first safety net program was welcomed by representatives of the participating Governments.

"Unlike the operator market, which provides cloud services in the enterprise market, we need to be more experienced in user experience, user business consulting, service capabilities, and business models, and we need to share these experiences." "Ye Yuwen said. According to its disclosure, by 2015, the revenue target of the enterprise net business is not less than 6 billion U.S. dollars, the next three years of composite growth rate will reach more than 50%.
