Dr. Ouyang Ye delivered a keynote speech


AsiaInfo believes that under the guidance of the national new infrastructure policies, the new infrastructure constructed by 5G, AI, cloud computing, Internet of Things and other technologies has laid the foundation for the digital transformation of the industry. When different industries are at different stages of “digital maturity level” (initial period, reaction period, progress period, immersion period, transformation period), the communications industry, as a pioneer in digital transformation, has already entered a stage of stable development. “For operators, digital business models, customer experience and cost control have become pain points of common concern” According to Dr. Ouyang Ye, the key driving forces to cure the pain points of digital transformation are mainly reflected in four aspects, that is, the application service capabilities based on cloud native, and comprehensive empowerment of AI in communications and vertical fields, technological innovation capabilities represented by 5G, and synergic competition in open ecology.


“For this purpose, AsiaInfo has put forward seven major initiatives to empower the digital transformation of the communication industry, help communications operators build differentiated core competence, and simultaneously promote the development of China’s information innovation industry:

  1. Build an enterprise-level smart middle-ground to lay the cornerstone of digital transformation;


  2. Facilitate the integration of B and O domains, and focus on making all domains intelligent, and optimize the experience;


  3. Promote the integration of cloud and network to enable the efficient operation of “5G cloud network”;


  4. Co-build an IT cooperation ecosystem to help enterprise clouding;


  5. Build an information innovation product system to accelerate the construction of a digital ecosystem;


  6. Empower numerous industries with DICT to promote the development of the information innovation industry;


  7. Promote the improvement of communication and vertical industry operation capabilities through the digital operation driven by DSaaS data.


AISWare AntDB explores innovative ways of basic software applications with domestic databases


In the “Basic Software Sub-forum” focusing on the construction and development of basic software ecology, more than 200 representatives of enterprises and institutions from the fields of databases, middleware, operating systems and office systems gathered to discuss resource cooperation and industrial collaboration in order to contribute wisdom and strength to jointly build a new ecosystem of basic software. As a representative of a high-tech enterprise driven by innovation, AsiaInfo demonstrated its self-developed distributed database product AISWare AntDB and its application cases to the industry.


As one of the three basic software, the database is an essential core part of IT system of an enterprise. AsiaInfo is well versed in database innovation and industry applications. Based on years of product R&D and rich practical experience in projects, AsiaInfo continues to provide high-quality database products and customized turnkey solutions for industries such as communications, finance, transportation, postal service, medical care, radio and television and energy.


At present, AsiaInfo has formed a complete set of cross-industry database application solutions, and put forth effort on solving the pain points of database business migration. AISWare AntDB has unique advantages in many aspects:

 

 1. High compatibility and complete verification technology


AntDB is highly compatible with international mainstream commercial databases, has complete compatibility verification technology, and has transparent application migration, which can greatly reduce the cost of development, operations and learning for customers;

 

 2. Parallel disaster recovery of heterogeneous databases


Based on the high degree of compatibility, AntDB can run in parallel with the migrated databases, and migration can be carried out after fully verifying the stability, which can ensure business continuity to a greater extent;

 

 3. Migration evaluation technology


The original creation of “migration evaluation technology” of AsiaInfo can accurately evaluate the migration implementation cost, time period, risk and other elements to ensure that customers are aware of the entire migration process;

 

 4. Complete operations tools and systems


AntDB provides a one-click automatic migration tool of data object, AWR running report analysis tool, automatic optimization tool of performance diagnostic SQL, distributed point-in-time global data backup and recovery tool, and can realize the high compatibility with syntax, function, operation symbols, types, etc. in a configurable manner without developing codes separately.


In addition, AntDB supports HTAP, and is equipped with efficient OLTP processing capabilities and massive OLAP capabilities, which helps reduce business complexity and usage costs of customers. AntDB can also provide standardized product delivery that integrates software and hardware, which can be widely applied in the construction of IT systems in vertical industries with large business differences.


Currently, AISWare AntDB can support domestic leading chips and operating systems under CPU architectures such as ARM and X86, and has been compatible with many mainstream hardware equipment manufacturers in China, which has laid a solid foundation for wider applications in vertical industries.
