There is a great news coming from the transforming and upgrading manufacturing industry!
Recently, a large manufacturing enterprise in Chongqing announced the successful bid results for its “Digital Upgrade and Transformation Project.” AsiaInfo, in collaboration with its ecosystem partner Yonyou Network, emerged victorious with their joint offering of “AntDB Database + U8 Cloud.” In the future, both parties will leverage this joint product to help the customer streamline all aspects of data application, comprehensively revamp its production and operation models, and gracefully transition from “traditional manufacturing” to “intelligent manufacturing”!
Breaking Information Silos and Reshaping Business Processes
Turning Data into a New Engine for Cost Reduction and Efficiency Enhancement
Founded in the 1960s, the above enterprise has witnessed the establishment and growth of China's industrial system, achieving remarkable accomplishments during the reform and opening up and becoming a leading large-scale manufacturing enterprise in Southwest China.
However, with the expansion of the scale of enterprises and the transformation of business models, the challenges it has faced were increasing day by day - procurement, production, logistics, and sales were relatively independent of each link, with business data from different departments struggling to share and circulate. The lack of data led to production planning relying heavily on experience-based judgments, resulting in poor accuracy and difficulties in promptly responding to market changes. Tracing defective products and pinpointing faults became challenging, escalating customer service costs and difficulties. The management of production materials became more dependent on manual labor, poor timeliness of outgoing and incoming statistics, and weak supervision...... So many things resulted in high operation and management costs and low efficiency of production and operation of the enterprise.
To address these challenges, Yonyou Network and AsiaInfo built the U8 Cloud enterprise management software on top of the AntDB. The former is responsible for streamlining and integrating the production, supply, and sales processes, while the latter provides robust data storage, analysis, querying, and invocation services, ensuring the efficient operation of the entire digital system and providing data support for the enterprise's production and operations. This combination breaks through data islands, constructs a digital production and operation system, and lays a solid foundation for the customer's comprehensive transformation.

1+1 > 2: A Replicable New Model for Overseas Business Expansion
This successful bid underscores AsiaInfo and Yonyou Network's precise understanding of customer needs and reaffirms the importance of powerful products' collaborations in cross-industry market expansion.
Currently, AsiaInfo and Yonyou Network have established a systematic joint product and service system capable of providing personalized solutions tailored to diverse customer requirements. The “AntDB Database + U8 Cloud” joint product is a testament to the complementary strengths of both parties. This joint product has been widely implemented in sectors such as medical and pharmaceutical, human resources, and enterprise management, with good replicability.

AsiaInfo, as a leading provider of IT products and services, its self-developed “hyper-converged” database product, AntDB, has achieved compatibility and adaptation with nearly a thousand products from hundreds of domestic “information innovation” enterprises, enabling efficient and cost-effective domestic transformation services for customers. It is hoped that partners from all walks of life will join the AntDB cooperation ecosystem and jointly promote digital intelligence transformation across hundreds of industries.
