Digital technology is re-shaping the future world. Cloud computing, networking, mobility, and big data technologies are deeply integrated continuously. And data center based networks are gradually being introduced. In order to share data center resources, improve business security, and reduce disaster recovery backup costs, data center interconnection becomes an inevitable trend.

In the traditional Internet industry, business is usually based on searching engines and web browsing. In the era of Internet+, business is moving to cloud services.

According to data insight provider GlobalData, the global cloud ecosystem is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 25.3%, reaching US$720 billion in 2022. Critical to such growth, Data Center Interconnect (DCI) serves as the key infrastructure connecting data centers.

However, DCI solutions are about far more than just connection capacity. Additional features such as simplified Operations and Maintenance (O&M), intelligence, and security are now also necessities, not extras, in an increasingly complicated world. Such features are integral to Huawei DCI solutions.
