Huayun data: help enterprises easily go to the "cloud"

  

As the largest and most influential landmark event in the field of cloud computing and data center in China, the China IDC Industry Annual Festival has been successfully held for ten times. Now the 11th China IDC Industry Annual Festival (IDCC2016) will also be held in Beijing National Convention Center from December 20 to 22, 2016. It is expected that the number and scale of participants will reach 8000+people.

As one of the warm-up links of the 11th annual China IDC industry ceremony, the "Top 100 Interview" has received extensive attention and praise from the industry and industry media since its launch. Many senior executives of IDC and well-known upstream and downstream enterprises will be invited to participate in it. Their insights have played an important role in promoting the development of the domestic IDC industry.

The vigorous development of Internet+, big data and cloud computing has helped many enterprises start their journey to the cloud to a certain extent. However, in the process of cloud transformation, they have encountered many problems. How to grasp the pain points of cloud transformation has become a key breakthrough.

Huayun Data Group Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer specializing in cloud computing services. It not only provides users with IaaS PaaS、 Cloud collaboration SaaS, cloud CDN and other services, as well as private cloud, e-commerce cloud, financial cloud, game cloud IDC to cloud and other safe, convenient, easy to use, energy-saving, reliable and efficient solutions. Recently, we had the honor to invite Mr. Guo Xiao, the chief architect of Huayun Data and vice president of the Competency Center, to be a guest of "100 Interviews". He gave a specific explanation to reporters on the construction of Huayun Data in private cloud, strategic cooperation, and how to help IDC operators transform to the cloud.

Software+service=core competitiveness

Huayun Data currently has branches in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Xiamen, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Shandong and other places, including four R&D centers. Public cloud business mainly involves 21 data centers operated and managed in mainland China and overseas, including 8 self built data centers. At the same time, relying on independent research and development, Huayun provides a full range of high-quality public cloud and enterprise level private cloud products and services. It is one of the few independent cloud service providers in China with "full cloud capabilities".

In view of the increasingly hot enterprise private cloud market, the reporter proposed that there are currently two forms of private cloud construction: one is the virtualization and resource pooling construction focusing on the underlying computing network storage; The other is to focus on the forward-looking business planning of enterprise level private cloud construction, that is, to emphasize the attribute of application service driven. In this regard, Guo Xiao stressed that "Huayun Data attaches great importance to application service driven and top-down design and architecture in the construction of enterprise level private cloud. Huayun always regards software and services as its core competitiveness, emphasizing service capability and openness. Enterprise level private cloud is still a set of cloud computing platforms that need services as the final delivery in essence, not just the underlying virtualization and IaaS. When planning and building large-scale enterprise level private clouds or industry private clouds, enterprises need to focus on planning private clouds and IT requirements from the perspective of applications and services, rather than just starting from purchasing hardware servers and virtualization. This top-down planning and construction idea requires Huayun Data, which is service driven and has‘ Full cloud capability ’Powerful support from the company of system products. "

Such "full cloud capability" has been fully reflected in the rail transit cloud solution customized by Huayun Data for Wuxi Metro. The customized scheme realizes high HA and high-performance resource pooling, unified scheduling management and global monitoring, and realizes multiple security and reliability guarantees; At the same time, the goal of heterogeneous compatibility, fully automatic migration and high-performance optimization is also achieved. This not only ensures the smooth operation of the current diversified business scenarios of Wuxi Metro, but also innovatively combines big data solutions with private cloud platforms, laying a solid foundation for big data analysis and mining of Wuxi Metro business and operation departments.

Strategic cooperation to achieve the effect of 1+1>2

When a reporter asked about the strategic partnership between Huayun Data and VMware a few months ago, Guo Xiao said: "After years of precipitation and development, Huayun Data has accumulated a large number of customers and practical experience. The cooperation with VMware will help both sides play their respective strengths in the private cloud field, jointly develop industrial customers, and release" 1+1>2 " The energy of can play a key role. After the two parties reach cooperation, VMware users can migrate part of their business systems and data to Huayun's public cloud as needed, reduce costs, easily respond to business changes, and lay the foundation for the implementation of VMware VCAN in China. "

In 2016, Huayun Data passed the independently developed CloudUItra The product integrates the existing VMware cluster KVM cluster is incorporated into the tax cloud platform for unified management of resources. Through the integration of physical resources, the adjustment of virtual machine resources is realized, and the functions of heterogeneous management, process approval, authority management, resource allocation, operation and maintenance monitoring, alarm, statistical report, etc. under the unified platform are finally realized, which solves the increasingly saturated load of VMware core business cluster of Shanghai Taxation Bureau and the imminent problem of cluster expansion, and ensures the promotion of new business, Realized the coordinated development of recycling and innovation.

Analyze the pain points of transformation and improve core service capabilities

At present, under the impact of cloud computing, the physical host hosting business is gradually clouding. Faced with various problems and difficulties encountered by IDC operators during the transformation, Guo Xiao explained: "The pain points of IDC operators during the transformation to the cloud are mainly reflected in the insufficient utilization of old equipment resources when traditional IDC hosts are transferred to virtual machines; Operators lack experience in cloud platform management, commercial operation or platform operation and maintenance, as well as higher comprehensive operation costs. "

In combination with the actual market demand, Huayun Data launched the IDC to cloud product solution after detailed analysis, which can help traditional IDC enterprises to go to the cloud in one step and quickly customize the IaaS functional products and management PaaS/SaaS support capability, to the full service cloud computing product chain of authentication and billing, monitoring, operation and maintenance, heterogeneous management, bare metal management, is stable, reliable and easy to deploy. Help IDC manufacturers quickly complete IDC public cloud deployment, transform traditional data centers into cloud data centers, and enable traditional IDC enterprises to provide innovative public cloud services.
