Huawei plans to build a national cloud service network in Suzhou

[51CTO.com original article] Recently, the 2017 Huawei•Suzhou Cloud Industry Cooperation Summit Forum was held in Suzhou City. The theme of the conference was "Cloud Industry Gathering, Data Winning the Future", inviting people from all walks of life to discuss how cloud computing and big data can promote the development of emerging industries. During the meeting, Yang Ruikai, President of Huawei Enterprise Cloud Business Department, accepted an interview with the media and talked about Huawei's strategic direction, industrial layout and ecological construction in the field of cloud computing.

Based on development and learning, Huawei continues to accumulate cloud advantages

Yang Ruikai said that Huawei has some advantages in the cloud service market that are widely recognized by customers, such as understanding of software and hardware, understanding of the needs of large enterprise customers, accumulation of R&D capabilities, and long-term organizational platform capabilities. He introduced that Huawei has currently built a service system covering China and even the world, and China has a deep service system covering every city. "Faced with cloud industry opportunities, we hope to better serve customers based on this capability while doing a good job in the ecological chain and industrial chain." He said that the final choice of customers depends on Huawei's ability, quality and satisfaction in serving customers.

Yang Ruikai also affirmed some advantages of cloud vendors in the Internet field, such as their understanding of SMEs and the Internet industry. He believes that some practices are worth learning from Huawei. "In the future, the SME cloud service market will also be one of Huawei's development priorities. Adhering to an open and learning attitude, we will improve and accumulate the ability to serve customers through continuous learning."

Why did the flower fall in Suzhou?

Many people were puzzled by the fact that this conference was held in Suzhou. Yang Ruikai explained that when he took the lead in establishing the entire cloud business segment in 2011, he had a rough judgment on the future trend of cloud computing - when the cloud computing industry really arrives, it will be implemented in the Chinese market on a provincial basis. Therefore, Huawei built a "cloud service node city" in each province and chose a city to cooperate with to promote the development of the cloud industry. Karamay is the first city that Huawei Enterprise Cloud cooperated with, and Suzhou is the second city. Later, it cooperated with Xiangyang and Yuxi respectively. The managers of these cities showed great interest and foresight in the cloud computing industry, and also saw that the cloud computing industry may bring profound changes to the development of their cities in the future. Based on the common understanding of the development of the cloud industry, the two sides actively communicated and promoted it, and Huawei Enterprise Cloud was gradually implemented in these cities.

He emphasized that in the process of promoting the cloud industry, Huawei hopes to return to the city where the cooperation started. By holding the "Cloud Industry Gathering Industry, Digital Winning the Future" Cloud Industry Cooperation Summit Forum, Huawei will promote the accumulation and improvement of cloud computing technology and cloud service capabilities; at the same time, combined with the urban development, industrial development, and economic development of various places, it will promote the upgrading of traditional industries in various cities, and then aggregate the momentum of new economic development. He said that the "Cloud Industry Gathering Industry, Digital Winning the Future" Cloud Industry Cooperation Summit Forum will continue in the future and will be optimized on the basis of the previous two sessions. For example, it will be more closely integrated with the development of urban industries, or more focused on promoting the development of cloud computing industries, and at the same time form close synergy with the local industries and local advantages of each city to exert synergy and produce the best effect.

After the city met Huawei Cloud

Yang Ruikai told reporters that the main point of cooperation with cities is to promote the construction of cloud service networks, form a national cloud service network, and then combine local government informationization, industrial informationization, including enterprise digital transformation, etc., to jointly promote the digital transformation and development of cities. At present, with the completion of the construction of Huawei's national cloud service network, more business applications will be continuously enriched with the help of this cloud platform.

Taking Suzhou as an example, first of all, Huawei has helped Suzhou's government cloudification and digitalization process, allowing urban residents to truly feel the convenience brought by urban cloudification and digitalization; secondly, it has promoted the development of Suzhou's cloud computing industry in Anhui Province and prompted the provincial platform to land in Suzhou. , including some businesses of the Anhui Provincial Meteorological Bureau and the Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce have landed in Suzhou. ***, Huawei also helped Suzhou's cloud business converge. After Suzhou built cloud service capabilities, especially in northern Anhui, electricity is very sufficient and transportation is convenient. For cloud computing and big data companies in the industry, with the help of Suzhou's cloud infrastructure service platform, they can also converge their businesses to Suzhou. For example, after Shanghai Suxiang, a representative company in the field of animation rendering, landed in Suzhou, it reduced production, operation, and labor costs and achieved better development; from the perspective of urban development, Suzhou has an additional "soft power" and "handle". Therefore, Huawei uses cloud services as a "handle" to promote the development of Suzhou's cloud computing industry, making Suzhou not only a cloud service node for government affairs, but also serving the development of Suzhou's entire cloud computing industry chain.

At the same time, Huawei also uses Suzhou as a node for its own business. For example, Huawei Enterprise Cloud serves Huawei terminals and provides consumer cloud services to the outside world. Huawei mobile phone users feel it more clearly, and many mobile phone applications and platforms are placed on the Huawei Enterprise Cloud platform. Huawei's East China customers also choose to place their businesses in Suzhou.

2017 Huawei.Suzhou Cloud Industry Cooperation Summit Forum

Cloud services will become a basic business model, and cloud computing will become a basic capability for all industries, helping enterprises to achieve digital transformation. Yang Ruikai, President of Huawei's Enterprise Cloud Business Unit, said, "Huawei has always focused on providing cloud infrastructure services in the field of cloud computing. We hope to open up Huawei's accumulation of technology and products through the cloud platform, aggregate partners' applications, and serve the digital transformation of all industries. Huawei continues to lead the Chinese cloud service market, and has established cloud service nodes in more than 30 cities. Through a unique three-level cloud service network layout, it covers seven major regions across the country, integrates massive and highly available cloud resources, and builds a cloud service resource network covering the national, provincial, and municipal levels; at the same time, it has formed cooperation with more than 200 cities. In the future, Huawei will vigorously promote the development of urban industrial clouds, build urban industrial cloud service networks across the country, and gradually connect cloud service resources through high-speed and secure networks to form a cloud service network to serve customers' needs for national business deployment."
