LONDON - The Global Telecoms Awards (GLOTEL Awards) was held in London recently. Huawei's 5G-oriented Telco Cloud solution won the "Telecoms Transformation" award, demonstrating the industry's strong recognition of Huawei's technological leadership and maturity in the 5G field, according to the official website of Huawei.

 

Cloudification is the foundation of 5G networks, and an irreversible trend for telecom networks. 5G enters into commercial scale deployment, with a broad range of prospective applications in many fields, such as smart industry, smart agriculture, smart city, and home entertainment. Agile service rollout, differentiated requirements, and deterministic experience have become the basic requirements for carrier 5G networks, accelerate the cloudification of the entire network. The 5G era is calling for more agile and efficient cloud-based networks, as service innovation relies on the flexibility of services and fast rollout brought by cloudification.

 

With its cloud-native architecture, Huawei's 5G-oriented Telco Cloud solution takes the lead in the commercial use of key technologies such as stateless design, cross-DC deployment, and microservices. It provides the industry's only A/B test solution for commercial use, providing online upgrades with zero service interruption. In addition, Huawei has introduced innovative technologies such as containers, distributed heterogeneous hardware acceleration, and autonomous driving networks. It launched the industry's first fully containerized 5G core network, accelerating network deployment and service rollout, and helping carriers build more agile, flexible, efficient, and robust 5G networks.

By Q3, 2019, Huawei had signed more than 670 commercial contracts for cloud core networks worldwide, and is determined to help carriers accelerate the cloudification of telecom networks, promote 5G service innovation, enable the digital transformation of the industry, and achieve business success.

 

The GLOTEL Awards are organized by Telecoms.com, a well-known media agency, to commend carriers, equipment vendors, solution providers, and consulting firms that have made outstanding contributions and innovation in the global telecoms industry.
