04 Huawei Investment & Holding Co., Ltd.
Businesses are going digital faster than ever
before. During this process, demand will continue
to grow for intelligent IP networks that provide
higher bandwidth, committed service level
agreements, and intelligent O&M. In 2019, we
released a series of AI-based solutions, including
5G converged transport networks, intelligent and
lossless data center networks, and fully-wireless
campus networks. We also unveiled our all-new
series of products, the four engines: AirEngine Wi-
Fi 6, CloudEngine data center switch, NetEngine
router, and HiSecEngine firewall. Moving forward,
we will continue to invest in innovation, and
innovate together with our customers, to maintain
a lead in intelligent IP networks and help relevant
standards mature.Huawei is taking part in an industry-wide effort to
transform fiber networks from being bandwidth-
driven to experience-driven. Following intensive
discussion and broad consensus across the
industry, definitions and standards have been set
for the Fifth Generation Fixed Network (F5G).
F5G features full-fiber connections, ultra-fast
broadband, and a reliable user experience.In 2019, we announced our Intelligent OptiX
Network strategy with the goal of bringing a
superior fiber experience to every home and
providing every industry with faster, more reliable
fiber connections. The integration of 5G with
optical technology is set to accelerate the digital
journey of all industries. As a global leader in
optical communications, Huawei is committed to
long-term investment in key technologies while
actively contributing to standardization.■ Cloud service platforms and AI are the new key
drivers of computing – our stepping stones to the
intelligent world. Huawei aims to meet diverse
computing needs in the future world. In 2019, we
announced our computing strategy that combines
Kunpeng and Ascend, outlined our business
strategy for what Huawei will and will not do inthe computing domain, and began investing in an
open ecosystem. We also consolidated our storage,
computing, and cloud service teams to form the
Cloud & AI Business Group designed to better serve
our customers in these domains.We are working hard to ensure that our public
cloud services and hybrid cloud solutions deliver
strong stability, reliability, security, trustworthiness,
and sustainability. These offerings capitalize on
greater synergy between our cloud, AI, and 5G.
We will work with our partners to help different
industries more effectively navigate their digital
and intelligent transformations. Our goal is to
better support our partners’ applications and help
customers do more with their data, creating fertile
soil for the intelligent world to flourish.In addition to promoting the shift towards
heterogeneous, diversified computing, we are
leveraging AI to build a full-stack, all-scenario AI
portfolio. We launched several new offerings in
2019: the Ascend 910 AI processor; the world’s
fastest AI training cluster, Atlas 900; HUAWEI
CLOUD Ascend-based cluster services; and a new
AI computing framework, MindSpore.To increase the usability and value of data
throughout its lifecycle, we launched our new-
generation OceanStor all-flash storage and
OceanStor distributed storage solutions, which
we developed through extensive optimization,
innovation, and convergence of our big data,
storage, and database products.In 2019, we announced the Huawei Developer
Program 2.0. We backed this program with an
initial investment of US$1.5 billion dedicated
to driving the development of the computing
industry. With the help of communities and
universities around the world, this program is
designed to cultivate five million developers over
the next five years.
