Water is the source of life, and “effective management and utilization of water” is crucial for human-being production, living, and social operations!
Recently, based on AntDB and FlyingServer Web middleware products independently developed by AsiaInfo, Chongqing Botong Water Conservancy Information Network Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Botong Company) has developed two knock-out products: the “Water Revenue Management Platform” and the “Pump Station Management Platform.” The two products meet national requirements and are independently controllable, secure, and efficient. They have assisted water companies in multiple provinces and cities in effectively managing and utilizing water resources.
Creating Knock-out Smart Water Products to Empower Autonomous Control, Cost Reduction, and Efficiency Improvement in the Water Industry
Botong Company is a subsidiary of Chongqing Water Conservancy Investment (Group) Co., Ltd., specializing in the informatization construction in the water conservancy and water industry.
In order to fulfill national requirements for autonomous control of information facilities in the water industry, facilitate centralized construction and unified supervision of marketing service systems for water companies, enhance water industry efficiency, reduce operating costs, and address common issues such as pump station management difficulties, low water resource and water conservancy equipment utilization efficiency, and high maintenance costs, Botong Company decided to develop the “Water Revenue Management Platform” and the “Pump Station Management Platform”, and assist water companies in various provinces and cities to implement autonomous control and promote digital intelligence transformation.
After full-scale market research and comparison, based on comprehensive evaluations of product functionality, application practice, “information innovation” ecosystem, costs, and other aspects, Botong Company ultimately selected AsiaInfo's AntDB and FlyingServer Web middleware to provide high-performance, reliable, and stable support for the platforms above.

In October of this year, the “Water Revenue Management Platform” and the “Pump Station Management Platform” were carried out in multiple water companies in Chongqing and other regions, with stable operation and remarkable results. Leveraging AntDB's high performance, the platforms have achieved centralized water data integration and bridged information silos, providing strong support for business optimization, refined enterprise operations, and scientific decision-making. Relying on FlyingServer middleware, they have guaranteed the safe and smooth operation of business applications. Many work processes have been standardized and integrated into online digital platforms, reducing the workload of water companies' personnel, improving operational and customer service efficiency, and enhancing water supply safety and information transparency. In addition, business processing and payment channels have been greatly enriched, allowing household and business customers to “do more things with less processes”.
Dual “Information Innovation” Products with Excellent Performance and Cost-Effectiveness!
Databases, middleware, and operating systems are collectively known as the “three fundamental software components” and are the basis for the normal operation of computers and IT systems. AsiaInfo is one of the few industry vendors that can provide the dual “information innovation” products: database and middleware. Products and services from the same provider have demonstrated significant advantages in customer services:
1. Comprehensive Functions and Excellent Performance: AntDB, a high-performance distributed RDBMS, is highly compatible with international mainstream database products. It is suitable for six major business scenarios such as transactions, analysis, in-memory computing, stream processing, time series, and vectors. Adopting a hyper-converged architecture, it boasts cross-business solid data integration and processing capabilities. FlyingServer middleware complies with international standards such as Jakarta EE and MicroProfile, can support various J2EE applications, accommodate multiple deployment methods, and meet the needs of different scenarios across industries.

2. Lightweight Delivery, Rapid Deployment, and Low Costs: AsiaInfo independently developed both products. There is no need for any adaptation or secondary development between them. They enable rapid deployment and agile launch, significantly shortening the development cycle and saving customer costs. The products support microservices architecture, making business applications more flexible and market responses timelier.
3. Comprehensive Ecosystem, Security, and Reliability: AsiaInfo is a vital builder of China's “information innovation” ecosystem. Its products are independently controllable, secure, reliable, and widely compatible with domestic software and hardware in various fields. AntDB and FlyingServer offer multi-level security safeguards to ensure data security and system stability.
In the face of the current uncertain international environment and the severe challenges of cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, industries are striving to promote autonomous control and digital transformation. AsiaInfo will continue to adhere to independent innovation, leverage its leading “product + service” advantages, and contribute to refined operations and high-quality development across various industries.
