Huawei and Accenture have entered into an agreement with Guangdong Cable (GCable) in China to deploy an integrated budget management planning and support system.
This will be done by leveraging the Enterprise Private Cloud solution under the Huawei-Accenture strategic alliance (HASA).
Huawei is providing GCable with its Hyper-Converged Infrastructure FusionCube and cloud OS FusionSphere, an enterprise product family that encompasses both hardware such as servers, storage, security, and networking, and software including virtual computing, software-defined storage, and cloud management.
Compared to conventional architecture, FusionCube helps reduce the system deployment time to hours from weeks and improve performance by more than 10 times, cutting overall costs by up to 30%.
The agreement was formed under the strategic alliance announced by Huawei and Accenture in October 2014 to develop and market innovative solutions to address customer requirements in both the communications service provider and enterprise ICT markets.
The companies agreed to serve their global clients by leveraging Huawei’s wide portfolio of leading hardware and software products and solutions, and Accenture’s capabilities in consulting, systems integration and outsourcing.
Huawei and Accenture’s joint Enterprise Private Cloud solution is a pre-designed and integrated private cloud solution based on Accenture’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service offering and Huawei’s private cloud infrastructure.
