All Connected, All Cloud, All Intelligent

Shanghai, China, September 6, 2017: At HUAWEI CONNECT 2017, Huawei launched “Connection+Cloud”, the dual drivers of digitization strategy and enterprise network solutions for smart connection of everything. The strategy and solutions help enterprises accelerate their transformation to the cloud by providing network connections that are more comprehensive and network management that is more intelligent in all scenarios, such as access, WAN, data center, and interconnection.

These advantages help enterprises build a technical infrastructure for the future intelligent society. As a result, enterprises are better placed to seize commercial opportunities, generate new revenue, and increase operational efficiency in their digital transformation.

David Wang, President of Huawei’s Products & Solutions, released “Connections+Cloud”, the dual drivers of digitization strategy.

“Building a digital dual-engine platform is Huawei's future product strategy. With the advantage of cloud-network collaboration, Huawei combines software and hardware capability, data center high-speed interconnection capability, and cloud service innovation capability and works with partners to build one of the world’s five clouds,” said President of Huawei’s Products & Solutions, David Wang.

“In the future, the cloud will exist wherever connections exist. The purpose of connections is to provide efficient cloud, and the value of cloud is achieved by connections. Every enterprise will need a network that has stronger connectivity, management that is more intelligent, and platforms that are more open to boost its business model innovation and drive new growth.”

In today’s modern world, enterprises require networks to connect not only core office services but also users, equipment, and environments. This has led to the integration of service processes, including production, logistics, operation, marketing, and sales. Instead of providing best-effort services, networks need to provide guaranteed service quality, highly efficient data transmission, intelligent O&M, and secure services—networks must connect enterprise intelligence to accelerate enterprises’ digital transformation.

Huawei provides various wired and wireless network connection technologies, implementing easy, all-scenario access of information, eliminating information silos, consolidating fragmented information, and building a network that can identify access users’ identities, application types, and working environments.

Huawei networks can analyze users’ behavior and intentions using Big Data Analytics, triggering network automation for high-quality service transmission, end-to-end application experience guarantee, and intelligent O&M and fault location. Networks can also open up information using interfaces based on service and application requirements so that users can optimize and innovate services and improve efficiency.

The enterprise network solutions released for Smart Connection of Everything include: CloudCampus solution that helps enterprises build a service-driven digital campus network, X-Gen Wi-Fi solution that brings customers a ubiquitous 4K video service experience and accelerates the industrial application of all IoT scenarios, CloudFabric solution that constructs a cloud data center network featuring extremely simplified design, deployment, and O&M, 400G DC interconnect (DCI) solution that constructs a large capacity, non-blocking, and low-delay interconnected network, and SD-WAN solution that delivers ultimate experience in WAN interconnection.

Huawei enterprise network products and solutions have been widely used in more than 100 countries and regions around the world and are accelerating enterprises’ digital transformation based on Smart Connection of Everything. To date, 197 of the Fortune Global 500 companies and 45 of the top 100 enterprises have chosen Huawei as their partner for digital transformation.

HUAWEI CONNECT 2017, Huawei's flagship event for the global ICT industry, is held at the Shanghai New International Exhibition Centre from September 5-7. The theme is Grow with the Cloud. Huawei will be exploring how to realize new growth through digital transformation together with its customers and partners at this global platform for open collaboration.
