Open, Agile, Reliable Huawei FusionSphere Cloud OS HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.
Cloud infrastructure challenges faced by enterprises To achieve lower TCO and enhance operational efficiency, carriers and enterprises are migrating existing IT infrastructure and applications into virtualized clouds. Besides the TCO savings of the internal IT, enterprises are benefiting a lot from the new business opportunities via cloud. Cloud being adopted in business application systems effectively shortens the service deployment cycle and simplifies infrastructure planning and management. But, the migration into cloud also creates some key challenges: 1. Commercial and technical challenges for building and managing a distributed, multi-vendor infrastructure. 2. Smooth migration to cloud data center without impact on existing service. 3. Different application scenarios require different infrastructure resources. 4. Supporting both fixed access and mobile access challenges cloud services. 1
