Data Center Infrastructure Powered by Huawei

Leveraging world-class integrated infrastructure to drive performance, resilience, and sustainable digital transformation.

Our data center strategy is built on a foundation of Huawei's cutting-edge ICT solutions. We deploy Huawei's holistic data center ecosystem to create a unified, software-defined infrastructure that is not only powerful and reliable but also intelligent and automated. This partnership ensures our IT environment is scalable to meet future demands while optimizing energy use and operational costs.

Overview:
Our data center strategy is built on a foundation of Huawei’s cutting-edge ICT solutions. We deploy Huawei’s holistic data center ecosystem to create a unified, software-defined infrastructure that is not only powerful and reliable but also intelligent and automated. This partnership ensures our IT environment is scalable to meet future demands while optimizing energy use and operational costs.

Core Huawei Technologies We Deploy:

  1. Cloud & Compute (Huawei CloudStack & FusionServer):

    • Platform: We utilize Huawei’s cloud management platform (FusionCloud/Campus) to create a agile private cloud environment, enabling rapid provisioning of compute resources.

    • Servers: Our rack-scale and high-density computing needs are met by Huawei FusionServer and KunLun servers, known for their performance, reliability, and innovative fault-tolerant design for mission-critical workloads.

  2. Networking & Connectivity (CloudEngine & NetEngine):

    • Data Center Network: The core of our connectivity is the Huawei CloudEngine series of switches. This provides a lossless, high-throughput, and low-latency Ethernet fabric, essential for virtualization, big data, and AI workloads.

    • WAN & Edge: Huawei NetEngine routers secure and accelerate connectivity between our data centers and branch offices, ensuring a seamless hybrid network.

  3. Storage (OceanStor):

    • We implement Huawei OceanStor all-flash and hybrid storage systems. They deliver enterprise-grade data services—including deduplication, compression, and snapshots—with a scale-out architecture that grows seamlessly with our data needs, ensuring high performance and data integrity.

  4. Intelligent Management (iMaster NCE):

    • The intelligence layer is powered by Huawei’s iMaster NCE (Network Cloud Engine). This AI-driven management and control system provides end-to-end automation, predictive analytics, and fault identification, transforming our operations from reactive to proactive.

  5. Power & Cooling (PowerUPS & SmartLi):

    • For sustainability and reliability, we use Huawei’s smart modular UPS systems and lithium-ion (SmartLi) batteries. Their indirect evaporative cooling solutions (like FusionCol) significantly reduce PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness), lowering our carbon footprint and operational expenses.

Benefits to Our Operations:

  • Extreme Reliability: Carrier-grade architecture ensures 99.999% availability for business-critical applications.

  • AI-Driven Efficiency: Intelligent O&M reduces manual intervention by up to 30% and improves cooling efficiency by 15%.

  • Simplified Scalability: Modular, software-defined design allows us to scale resources on-demand without costly over-provisioning.

  • Unified Security: End-to-end, built-in security from infrastructure to management platform.

Core Sangfor Technologies We Deploy:

  1. Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (Sangfor aCloud):

    • Foundation Platform: Sangfor aCloud forms the cornerstone of our software-defined data center. It seamlessly integrates compute, storage, networking, and security into a single, scalable appliance or software stack, dramatically simplifying deployment and management.

    • Benefits: We achieve rapid VM deployment, non-disruptive scaling, and built-in high availability, all managed through a single pane of glass.

  2. Integrated Security (Sangfor NGAF & Cloud Security):

    • Next-Gen Firewall: Our network perimeter and internal segmentation are protected by Sangfor’s Next-Generation Application Firewall (NGAF), which combines traditional firewall capabilities with advanced IPS, anti-malware, and web application filtering.

    • Cloud Workload Protection: Security is natively integrated into our HCI platform, providing agentless protection for virtual machines and workloads from internal and external threats.

  3. Enterprise Cloud (Sangfor Cloud):

    • We leverage Sangfor’s cloud platform to build a consistent hybrid cloud environment. It enables seamless workload mobility between our on-premise HCI clusters and public cloud resources, offering true operational flexibility and disaster recovery options.

  4. Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (Sangfor aNet):

    • To connect our users and branches securely to the data center, we use Sangfor’s SD-WAN solution. It intelligently routes traffic over multiple links (MPLS, broadband, 4G/5G), improving application performance and user experience while reducing WAN costs.

  5. Backup & Disaster Recovery (Sangfor HCI with CDP):

    • Our Sangfor HCI platform includes continuous data protection (CDP) and efficient snapshot capabilities. This allows for near-zero RPO (Recovery Point Objective) and rapid, granular recovery of files, applications, or entire VMs, ensuring business continuity.

Benefits to Our Operations:

  • Radical Simplification: Reduces infrastructure complexity by up to 70%, cutting deployment time from weeks to hours.

  • Security-First Design: Eliminates security gaps with a deeply integrated “East-West” and “North-South” security model.

  • Cost Optimization: Lowers both CAPEX (through convergence) and OPEX (through simplified management and licensing).

  • Operational Agility: Enables IT to respond swiftly to business demands with self-service provisioning and automated workflows.
