As industries push deeper into the digital transformation journey, the intelligent transformation is yet to unfold its full potential. It is foreseeable that the IT infrastructure scale of enterprises will maintain huge momentum in the next few years. As this trend continuously gains traction, the requirements for IT infrastructure are ever on the rise. Traditional data centers face operating expenditure (OPEX) stress from power consumption, O&M manpower and costs, and equipment footprint. This is when intelligent transformation comes into play, to effectively mitigate these issues. Meanwhile, AI-facing computing demands are growing explosively.
Huawei has been closely observing this trend and has deep insight into the challenges confronting the intelligent transformation of data centers. Huawei Intelligent Computing acts upon this insight by deploying its R&D initiatives on three fronts: intelligent acceleration engine, intelligent management engine, and innovative data center solution. Huawei has upgraded its x86-based traditional servers to intelligent servers. In addition, Huawei provides tiered solutions covering the single-node, large-scale, and ultra-large-scale deployment scenarios, perfectly addressing the intelligent transformation requirements of data centers from multiple dimensions.
What’s more, Huawei beefs up the game with the launch of the Ascend 310/910 AI chipsets and the Kunpeng 920 ARM-based CPU in October 2018 and January 2019 respectively. These core chipsets boost Huawei's intelligent computing offerings: the Atlas AI computing platform and TaiShan series servers. The broadened product portfolio covers the Cloud-Edge-Device scenarios, meeting diversified computing requirements.
Huawei Intelligent Computing is advancing the computing industry frontiers with its x86 FusionServer Pro, TaiShan ARM-based servers, and the Ascend-powered Atlas products. Huawei is well positioned to drive the intelligent transformation of data centers for customers and facilitate industry transformation.
Also according to Gartner's 4Q18 report, Huawei ranks No. 1 for multiple consecutive quarters both by shipments of blade servers and four-socket servers in the Chinese market. All these statistics well manifest the prowess and strength of Huawei Intelligent Computing.
