Working with Huawei, China Mobile Guangdong Wins Informa ‘Cloud Platform Innovation of the Year’ Award
[London, UK, June 16, 2017] China Mobile Guangdong
branch’s unified data center cloud management
platform, which was developed together with Huawei,
has won the Informa ‘Cloud Platform Innovation of the
Year’ award at the TechXLR8 summit.
China Mobile’s Guangdong branch faced challenges
with its existing operations which included MSS
(management support system), BSS (business support
system), and OSS (operations support system)
domains with five data centers, four categories of 18
heterogeneous virtual resource pools, three sets of
cloud management platforms, and 600 plus IT
applications.
These systems were isolated which meant IT resources
could not be shared and there was an inability to unify
heterogeneous resources, at the same time 80% of
resources were provisioned manually. In addition the
systems were becoming inefficient and causing
operations and maintenance issues.
China Mobile’s Guangdong branch worked with Huawei
to build a unified cloud platform to centralize, monitor,
manage, and schedule its subsidiaries’ resources. This
helped the operator to improve utilization, and reduce
operation and maintenance costs to better support
business development.
As the integrator of the project, Huawei planned and
designed a unified cloud management platform to help
meet China Mobile Guangdong’s customer
requirements. The platform originates from Huawei’s
internal IT experience which includes managing more
than 170 heterogeneous resource pools globally and
over 700,000 virtual machines that can be used for
mixed IT, multi-clouds and multi-data centers
scenarios. In this project, Huawei’s platform delivers
the following:
Unified management: Sharing the resources of the
core MSS, BSS, and OSS domains across five data
centers helped to achieve real-time analysis of
internal management of billing and significantly
reduced software license fees.
Agility: The solution enables users to apply cloud
services through a unified portal based on their
own needs, and use the drag-and-drop facility to
automatically orchestrate the software/scripting,
which reduces the service application development
time from days to minutes.
Scalability: The platform is based on micro service
architecture to quickly support cloud businesses
online. Its open API can support smooth integration
with IT service management and IT operation
systems.
The success of the China Mobile Guangdong branch
cloud management platform project was driven by a
combination of business and IT expertise which
enabled unified management of mixed IT, multi-clouds,
and multi-data center resources for the operator. This
allowed for industry recognition resulting in Huawei’s
unified cloud management platform enabling the future:
Platform support for converged management of
MSS, BSS, and OSS domains resources
A platform managing IT private cloud, and public
cloud resources for enterprises IT transformation
An expandable platform that can offer rich cloud
services, enabling partners solutions to be
cloudified for B2B scenarios
Huawei's data center cloud management platform
integration solution is positioned to enhance the core
competitiveness of customer data centers. It will allow
operators to create a minimalist, on demand approach
and drive a smooth evolution to new IT structures,
helping them to achieve ICT transformation success.
Huawei has worked in this area of Data Center
Integration Service for 15 years and has rich service
experience delivering R&D, operations and
maintenance. Huawei has accumulated huge practice
experience and made its presence felt, in the
innovation phase in 2009, and scaled commercial use
in 2014. As of the end of December 2016, Huawei has
delivered 830 data centers, with an area of up to 1.4
million square meters including 420 loud data centers.
