A few days ago, the 2018 Operation Transformation Summit was held, and more than 600 guests from all over the world attended the conference, focusing on the theme of "Transformation to Digital Commerce". The conference discussed and promoted the digital transformation of the telecommunications industry from three aspects: new growth in digital services, doubling efficiency of digital infrastructure, agile working methods and skills upgrading of talents.

During the conference, Huawei's "ShapeCloud TM" data center integration solution was officially released, which aims to help customers build a high-quality on-demand, unified management, ecological convergence, full-service data center.

There are many challenges for operators to build data centers

In the face of hundreds of CT manufacturers, thousands of IT manufacturers, millions of applications and emerging new technologies, how to choose and evolve has become the main challenge for operators. In the digital age, in order to optimize costs, accelerate business innovation and improve efficiency, the IT architecture of operators is evolving towards centralization and cloud. The data center can meet the differentiated needs of the business only if it is business-driven on a unified cloud infrastructure.

Challenge one: slow on-line business, computer room construction > 2 years, IT application > 6 months. How to plan and design a reasonable technology evolution route and business cloud rhythm? How to take advantage of the scale of operators' networks and data centers to improve efficiency and user experience?

Challenge 2: chimney IT resources, complex management and high TCO. Business systems are intertwined, how to design a business migration plan to ensure business continuity? There are many components in the data center, and it is difficult to manage across regions. How to reduce the complexity of operation and maintenance? There are many suppliers, how to manage to ensure delivery quality and delivery schedule?

Challenge 3: lack of 2B digital business. Nowadays, big data, Internet of things, cloud computing and other services account for an increasing proportion of operators' revenue, and the application of mobile Internet has penetrated into the vertical industry. It is not difficult to imagine that operators will have more opportunities at the B end in the future. How to seize business opportunities to quickly enrich 2B digital business?

As the core control node of the future network and the carrier of content and business, the ICT converged data center will become the basis and strategic commanding point for the transformation of operators.

Data Center Reform is the basis of Digital Transformation

Huawei's "ShapeCloud TM" data center integration solution helps operators meet the above needs and challenges. Wang Wei, general manager of Huawei data center integration solutions, said: ShapeCloud TM consists of three sub-solutions: ShapeCloud TM for DC Facility (rapid construction of IT infrastructure); ShapeCloud TM for Hybrid IT (hybrid IT); and ShapeCloud TM for B2B (digital government service solution). So, how exactly is it realized? The following is a detailed interpretation for you.

Full-module data center-quickly build your IT system

Data center is an important infrastructure in the information age. With the explosive growth of consumer demand for personal information, the improvement of the degree of enterprise information, the gradual landing of cloud computing, virtualization and other technologies, the scale of the data center is getting larger and larger. How to build on-demand expansion, efficient operation, secure and reliable data center has become an important challenge.

Based on digital, networked and intelligent technology, Huawei MagicBlock full-module data center solution is based on fully modular design concept, BIM 3D digital delivery platform, green energy-saving technology, intelligent management platform and high availability certification, to build data center computer rooms with Lego flexible combination, Ikea simple installation, green energy saving according to local conditions, appearance and layout customization for customers. Flexibly match business needs and accelerate return on investment.

In the author's opinion, ShapeCloud TM for DC Facility has the following characteristics: simplicity-based on full modularization, realizing on-demand investment, solving the problem of high one-time investment in traditional data centers, and reducing CAPEX Efficient-unified management of the intelligent platform can achieve hierarchical management and centralized monitoring, the unified intelligent management platform can manage millions of measuring points, the operation status of the whole network is clear at a glance, and the operation and maintenance team can be reused and information shared, the efficiency of operation and maintenance can be effectively improved; reliable-intelligent management platform can also achieve active operation and timely replacement of spare parts, improve the life of equipment and improve the reliability of the whole system.

Mixed IT-- rejuvenates the data center

When the data center develops to a certain scale, it is faced with various problems, such as outdated equipment, low utilization rate of equipment, insufficient space in computer room, power shortage, network congestion, inefficient management, security risks and so on.

Data center integration is like urban transformation, through the transformation of the old data center computer room, architecture optimization, resource integration, network transformation, system migration and other means to make the data center more agile, more efficient, more energy-efficient, more economical, more reliable, and achieve sustainable development. Huawei relies on its expertise and experience to provide customers with end-to-end data center consolidation and migration solutions and services, including data center migration, expansion and integration.

Huawei's multi-cloud integration solution is based on Huawei CMP multi-cloud management platform, CloudMount efficient migration platform and CloudOps continuous optimization platform, providing end-to-end services and solutions from hybrid IT consulting, planning and design, integrated implementation, business migration to continuous optimization, helping operators create a full-service, streamlined IT cloud data center, reduce TCO, improve management efficiency and achieve agile distribution of IT resources.

In response to the problem of data center consolidation and migration, Wang Wei, general manager of Huawei data center integration solutions, said: "the customer's environment will involve a variety of IT devices, different manufacturers, and the application is very complex. Relying on its own years of accumulation, Huawei uses different tools to support the current network information collection, business correlation analysis, real-time migration, post-migration optimization, and so on. We will model the data of each segment and open the tool chain, and finally achieve real-time self-service migration. "

Wang Wei further said that Huawei Cloud Open Labs Lab has created an integrated verification environment that can fully simulate the operator's business transformation and infrastructure restructuring. The evolution of operator cloud is faced with the challenges of multi-vendor integration, evolution from the existing network to the target network, and the realization of agile operation. The purpose of Huawei to build a cloud open laboratory is to create an ecological chain construction, pre-integrated pre-verification, joint innovation platform to effectively support operators to achieve comprehensive cloud.

B2B music-aggregation industry ecology

In terms of improving 2B digital business, Huawei's digital government service solution is based on the convergence of industry ecology based on the government-enterprise PaaS and big data platform, and reached strategic cooperation with China Guoxin Center and CSA (International Cloud Security Alliance) to ensure cloud security compliance.

By helping operators build a secure, reliable, intelligent and convenient government cloud, Huawei enables operators to provide government basic database, data sharing and exchange, big data analysis and other PAAS and big data cloud services for the government, helping the government to create an one-stop public service portal for government affairs, realizing digital transformation, and improving the efficiency of government services. At the same time, it also drives the dedicated line sales of operators to increase revenue.

In the end, business-driven data center construction and integration has become the basis of the digital transformation of operators. Huawei, as a long-term partner of operators, continues to build data center integration capabilities.

Huawei's "ShapeCloud TM" data center integration solution is based on Huawei's 14 years of data center integration experience and 800 + global data center integration projects, adhering to the ingenuity of focus, skill and excellence, in-depth understanding of industry standards, and aggregating industry partners using open cloud platforms.
