The results are in: Cloudification is key to digital transformation. According to research firm International Data Corporation (IDC), 80% of enterprises will accelerate their cloud migration by the end of 2021. However, cloud technologies are developing at a much faster pace than networks, preventing the cloud from being fully utilized. In this context, cloud-networks are facing four challenges: fast clouds but slow networks, unreliable experience guarantee, challenging network Operations and Maintenance (O&M), and poor security protection.
To address these challenges, Huawei has adopted the “digital, intelligent, and service-oriented” philosophy and has built an end-to-end Intelligent Cloud-Network Solution, purpose-built for four scenarios — cloud campus network, cloud Wide Area Network (WAN), hyper-converged Data Center Network (DCN), and network security. With this solution, Huawei is empowering enterprises with intelligence, enabling them to take full advantage of cloudification.
