Featured the theme of “Symphony in a Digital-first Landscape”, the 7^th IDC China Digital Transformation Summit & Awards was held in Beijing from 26^th Oct to 27^th Oct. During the summit, experts from eSurfing Cloud shared innovative results, ranging from cloud network infrastructures todigital innovations and from general solutions to industry-specific practices, to outline the digital future powered by technologies.

Accelerating Infrastructure Innovation to Lay a Solid Foundation for Digital Transformation

With industry transformation continuing its advancement, there is increasing demand from enterprises for digital transformation applications, which raises the bar for digital infrastructure. During the keynote session, Mr. Wenming Zheng, Chief Infrastructure Architect of China Telecom Cloud Technology Co., Ltd. shared eSurfing Cloud’s innovations and practices in infrastructure. eSurfing Cloud builds the next generation of cloud network infrastructure with innovations in green data centres, hardware developments like servers and network switches, fundamental software like operating systems and databases, and key chipsets like DPU and P4. The reliable and secure self-developed infrastructure provides technical solutions to various diverse industries and can be applied to a wide range of scenarios. More importantly, the infrastructure lays a strong cloud network foundation to power enterprise digitalisations and take digital life to the next level.

Deepening Technology Innovations to Power Digital Future

The technologies in cloud computing are the building blocks of digitalisation for multiple industries, like notes to a song for digital movement. With this in mind, eSurfing Cloud continues to focus on technology innovations and drives the industry forward with forefront technology achievements.

Mr. Renlu Liu, DPU Chief Technology Officer of China Telecom Cloud Technology Co., Ltd shared his insights during the “Digital Infrastructure of the Future” session. As data volume increases drastically, the legacy infrastructure centred around CPU has reached its bottleneck. Leveraging the self-developed DPU cloud core as the foundation, eSurfing Cloud buids a new generation of cloud computing systems. Computing, storage, network, and secure computing are combined to the self-developed system which applies to both software and hardware. It can be applied to different scenarios and forms a self-manageable platform. This architecture      leads to fast cloudification for computing, storage, and network resources, unleashing the full potential of computing power. By accessing different computing power efficiently, we have accomplished the technological transformation from traditional single core to the current multi-core standard.

As enterprises have a higher requirement for agility and performance, cloud service providers have to rethink the ecosystem and include more participants in it. During the “Future Application and Software” session, Mr. Yutong Liang,  Low Code Product Director of China Telecom Cloud Technology Co., Ltd  introduced the low-code development platform- Yifei翼飞. By creating high-performance no-code and low-code engine with its self-developed cloud-native PaaS, the platform matches the rendering power of X6 and G6. It largely lowers the technical barriers for enterprise application with an all-in-one visualised developer mode.

Through standardised deliveries and integration services, Yifei (翼飞) low-code development platform enables customers to easily achieve all kinds of connections with terminals and third-party systems. By breaking down data silos, it helps enterprises achieve efficient business deliveries and flexible adjustments for their core businesses. For example, it can facilitate corporate co-working, comprehensive management and control of human and financial resources, production workflow and project management, thus bringing the enterprises one step closer to a digital future.

Promoting Digitalised Applications and Solutions to Fast-track the Digital Journey

With a solid foundation cemented by digital infrastructure, smart digital technologies and software, digital applications and solutions emerge rapidly to fuel the digital future.

During the “Future City” session, Mr. Chao Qi, Director of Government Department of China Telecom Cloud Technology Co., Ltd. talked about connecting everything through cloud computing and building smart cities. Leveraging its ABC integrated distributed cloud foundation, eSurfing Cloud actively participates in the data governance of cities and digital applications to support China’s latest initiative to channel computing resources from the east to the west. By building smart infrastructure including smart sensor systems, communication foundation infrastructure, state-of-the-art computing facilities and city-level central information system, eSurfing Cloud is boosting cities’ governance ability, improving the capability to protect basic services, and advancing the innovation of the industry, hence accelerating new developments within the cities.

Since the “Metaverse” is becoming increasingly popular, the virtual human industry is being developed vigorously. In a session about “Preparing for Systemisation in Digital Future”, Mr. Jin Chen Director of AI Product Research and Development of China Telecom Cloud Technology Co., Ltd., introduced the eSurfing Cloud’s key technologies of virtual human. Adhering to the multi-level AI scheduling capability developed from the computing power distribution network, eSurfing Cloud enhances users’ experiences by dispatching AI services including action generation and speech synthesis based on a digital instructor, to different nodes in each province.

Based on the real-time cloud rendering from eSurfing Cloud edge, eSurfing Cloud displays the achievement of multi-terminal compatibility with a quick presentation of the virtual instructor course. With the capabilities to access video streaming data nearby, it reduces delay and packet loss rate of live broadcasting. The underlying unified computing network platform improves the efficiency of GPU usage through reusing corporate level computing power. In addition, it also reduces business operation cost by reusing the idle bandwidth from edge facility rooms.

 Digital Transformation is a new competitive advantage for enterprises to achieve sustainable development. eSurfing Cloud focuses on building independent and controllable technology systems with cloud-network integration infrastructure to provide comprehensive products, solutions, and cloud service capabilities. We strive to create and develop a digital economy with different industry partners by accelerating cloud computing applications.
