Huawei launches Cloud Fabric 5.0

Huawei has launched the Cloud Fabric 5.0 Solution for cloud services, with a Huawei Fabric Insight Refined Operations and Maintenance (O&M) solution as its core.

The Fabric Insight Refined O&M Solution locates faults within minutes through visualized network status measurement and management as well as Big Data-based intelligent analysis, helping customers improve O&M efficiency and lower O&M costs.

Huawei's Fabric Insight Refined O&M Solution helps cloud data centers improve O&M efficiency through the following O&M applications: Network-wide visualization and Network-wide path quality scanning.

The health status of applications and networks is comprehensively measured and analyzed based on the statistics of application quality, logical and physical network elements, as well as the use of network functions and features on the service, logical, and physical networks. This simplifies large-scale network O&M and management.

Information about network path quality and status is periodically obtained and network paths are dynamically adjusted as network status changes. If a fault occurs at the service layer, physical devices can be automatically associated to locate the fault. An innovative Big Data analytics algorithm is used to quickly detect all the network paths and locate faults within minutes.

"The Huawei Fabric Insight Refined O&M Solution implements service-oriented O&M and management, helping customers enable intelligent network O&M, reduce obstacles during cloud-based service migration, and accelerate cloud transformation and upgrades," said Yu Li, general manager, Data Center Network Domain, Huawei.
