Ubiquitous Connectivity

We are moving towards an intelligent world where all

things will be able to sense and connect. Connectivity

is the prerequisite for – and foundation of – this world.

It is also a basic human right.

Huawei is committed to connecting all people, homes,

and organizations that are still offline, while driving

the adoption of broadband and ultrafast broadband

for those who are already connected. In addition, we

are infusing connectivity with AI so that networks can

adapt to the changing needs of people and connected

things. Going forward, intelligent networks will need

to adjust their bandwidth and latency in real time in

order to deliver the user-centric experience that people

have come to expect.

In the three main areas (individual users, homes, and

organizations), Huawei enables ubiquitous connectivity,

whether it’s person-to-person, person-to-thing, or

thing-to-thing. With a focus on user experience, we

power networks with artificial intelligence that can

proactively sense changes and user needs. These

networks will offer intelligent, seamless, and secure

connections for everyone, whenever and wherever they

want.

We are innovating nonstop to make this a reality. We

have developed a range of cutting-edge connectivity

technologies that work in any scenario and over any

media – 5G, Wi-Fi 6, 200G/400G optical transmission,

optical cross-connect (OXC), and 5G microwave.

We are also leveraging big data and AI to develop

intelligent connectivity solutions for individual users,

homes, and organizations. Examples include our

SmartWiFi and Autonomous Driving Network (ADN).

Pervasive Intelligence

In a fully connected world, we will see explosive

growth in data creation, generating endless demand

for mass storage and intensive computing. Meanwhile,

existing computing architectures are struggling to keep

up with this demand as Moore’s law slows down.

Huawei is working to change that. Through

ongoing innovation in technological architecture

and engineering, we want to provide the ultimate

computing power to deliver ubiquitous cloud and

pervasive intelligence.

For the past 15 years we have been investing in

the development of a chipset family built with our

Kunpeng and Ascend processors at the core.

Our converged, intelligent, and open data

infrastructure helps break down silos between storage,

databases, and big data systems. These solutions

enable our customers to integrate and optimize every

step of the data lifecycle, from storage and computing

to management and data utilization. This helps

maximize the value per bit and reduce cost per bit to

unlock the full potential of data.

Our solutions enable greater synergy between cloud,

AI, and 5G. This synergy, coupled with full-stack

technological innovation, translates into several

layers of added value in our public cloud services and

hybrid cloud solutions, especially in terms of stability,

reliability, security, trustworthiness, and sustainability.

We are working with our partners to help 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.

Personalized Experience

The physical and digital worlds are converging, and

the process is speeding up. Mass production is giving

way to mass customization, leading to greater business

innovation, collaboration across ecosystems, and a

richer user experience.

Using AI and cloud technologies, businesses can better

understand their customers’ needs and innovate with

greater agility to craft a more personalized experience.

Coordination and collaboration across industries will

drive innovation at scale.
