Hyper-converged data centers with all-flash storage and all Ethernet networks are required to achieve efficient storage and lossless transmission of large amounts of data. Huawei's Hyper-Converged Data Center Solution includes OceanStor and CloudFabric 3.0 and DC OptiX 2.0.
"Data is valuable in the 21st century. If you can fully mine the value of data, you will have more initiative in the future competition. Huawei will continually develop the hyper-converged data center network solution. With the deep collaboration of storage and network, it will help customers build a powerful intelligent hub, and empower enterprises' digital transformation." Said by Kevin Hu, President of Data Communication Product Line, Huawei.
Dr. Peter Zhou, President of IT Product Line, Huawei, commented: "Huawei OceanStor Dorado has a fully interconnected architecture. This architecture allows the system to remain operational even seven out of eight controllers fail. Together with active-active disaster recovery solution, it achieves 99.99999% reliability for mission-critical production data. In addition, OceanStor Dorado all-flash storage help build energy-saving all-flash data centers. To unleash the unlimited potential offered by massive amounts of unstructured data of HPC/HPDA and big data, Huawei OceanStor Pacific next-generation data lake storage provides super capacity expansion of up to 4096 nodes, 60% higher performance density and 2.6 times higher capacity density than the industry, as well as hybrid workloads and multi-protocol interworking capabilities."
Huawei also launched the CloudFabric 3.0 Hyper-Converged Data Center Network Solution, which include CloudEngine and iMaster NCE as core components .The solution is the first to achieve level-3 autonomous driving network capability in the industry. By providing end-to-end intelligent deployment and operations, the OPEX can be reduced by 30%. The solution can also build all Ethernet computing and storage networks with zero packet loss, helping to fully optimize computing performance by 100%."
Huawei DC OptiX 2.0 solution provides ultra-broadband, simplified, and intelligent all-optical interconnect for DCs. The solution has also been successfully deployed in the Philippine ISP customer, Converge. Ronald Brusola, CTO of Converge, said, " By cooperating with Huawei, we have learned about Huawei's leadership in the DCI field. Through Huawei DC OptiX 2.0 solution, we are confident and ensured that Converge will thrive more in IDC field to provide the Filipino market with the services they truly deserve."
3. Intelligent connectivity is the body of the Intelligent Twins, connecting the intelligent hub and intelligent interaction
To meet the diverse requirements for connectivity scenarios, Huawei has developed numerous innovations for optical fiber and IP technology platforms, building time-delay deterministic networks.
Richard Jin, President of Transmission and Access Network Product Line, Huawei, stated that the world is in an era of explosive data growth, but only flowing data can produce value. Intelligent connectivity combined with deterministic experiences provides a high-bandwidth and low-latency information highway for data flow and is the main artery of industrial intelligence.
The optical slicing based on Liquid OTN technology is a major breakthrough in deterministic networks after SDH. Liquid OTN inherits the advantages of physical isolation of SDH hard pipes and implements two innovations: protocol simplification and architecture convergence. Liquid OTN reduces the latency by 30%.
In addition, the slice size can be adjusted from 2 Mbit/s to 100 Gbit/s in real time as required. This solution guarantees service experience and meets the long-term evolution requirements of industrial digital transformation, making it an ideal choice for upgrading SDH networks in industries such as power grids and transportation.
In the intelligent IP field, Huawei has made technical innovations based on SRv6 and launched the CloudWAN 3.0 intelligent cloud network solution. Agricultural Bank of China and Huawei have partnered with innovative and leading SRv6 technologies to achieve optimal efficiency and performance for multi-cloud connections.
4. Highly Efficient Campus: the basic unit of the intelligent world
Huawei's HQ campus in Bantian features cloud, intelligence, fully-wireless access, and all-optical bearer. With Wi-Fi 6, employees can work and get connected anytime and anywhere. They can access WeLink, enabling mobile phone projection and real-time translation. 5G also supports the real-time transmission of 4K video by UAVs, which means that personnel can monitor campuses in real-time, building safe environments.
Bob Chen, President of Marketing & Enterprise Network Technical Sales Department, Huawei Enterprise BG, believes that campuses will be the "cells" carrying all the DNA needed for the future intelligent world where we will see more campus scenarios. Going forward, Huawei will continue to develop more scenario-specific solutions for more campuses using its 30-year experience and technology know-how. In doing so, Huawei's solutions can accelerate digital transformation of campuses and enable more service innovation, with the potential to achieve zero-boundary, zero-waiting, and zero-danger campuses.
For example, Huawei's all-optical industrial network solution reduces the number of explosion-proof nodes in coal mines by 40%, achieving efficient fault locating capability of 0.5 m, and achieving safe production in mine campuses.
Huawei also released the CloudCampus 3.0 cloud campus network solution on this conference.
5. Green Power: providing green power, conserving energy, and reducing emissions by building Intelligent Twins.
