Challenges

Challenges

1. High storage costs: WPS has a large number of users, and the documents and backup data they generate require a large amount of storage resources. Using a unified storage model for frequently accessed data and infrequently accessed archived data results in inefficient use of high-cost storage resources, leading to a steady increase in storage costs over the years.

2. Unstable connections to other IDCs through public networks: Public network connections have poor link stability, often resulting in high latency, packet loss, jitter, or even interruptions. This unstable network connection directly affects the transmission and synchronization of business data, causing slow response and lagging cross-IDC service interactions.

3. Poor service experience due to cross-region connectivity issues: To meet the access needs of users in different regions, WPS deploys services across multiple regions on Huawei Cloud. However, the existing architecture creates barriers between regions, leading to high latency and poor stability. This results in low efficiency in cross-region collaborative editing and data synchronization, negatively impacting the user experience for multi-region users and hindering the company's global business expansion.

 

Why Huawei Cloud?

Why Huawei Cloud?

Huawei Cloud’s OBS Intelligent Bucket Solution Reduces Storage Costs

This solution optimizes storage resource utilization and reduces costs through intelligent tiered storage and automated lifecycle management. It automatically classifies data based on access frequency—frequently accessed, infrequently accessed, and archived storage—and assigns them to the appropriate storage tiers. This ensures fast access to frequently used data while lowering the storage cost of less frequently accessed and archived data. It also supports elastic scaling and a pay-as-you-use model, eliminating idle resources and further improving overall storage efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Huawei Cloud’s Direct Connect Solution Provides a Secure Dedicated Channel

This solution establishes a high-speed, stable, and secure dedicated channel between an enterprise's own computing environment and the Huawei Cloud user computing environment. WPS uses the Direct Connect access service to connect computers in the local data center to cloud servers or managed hosts on Huawei Cloud through a private network, achieving a secure and reliable hybrid cloud deployment.

Huawei Cloud’s Cloud Connect Solution Enables Efficient Interconnection between Nodes in Different Regions

This solution overcomes cross-region connectivity barriers by establishing high-speed private channels across Huawei Cloud regions, improving cross-region service experience. It leverages Huawei Cloud’s backbone network to enable low-latency private communication between regions and supports scenarios such as cross-region collaboration, data backup, and service expansion with bidirectional data synchronization and seamless service switching. It also allows flexible addition of interconnected nodes while reducing R&D and O&M costs to support efficient business growth.

1. Secure and Stable Interconnection Across Clouds and On-Premises IDCs via Direct Connect: Huawei Cloud’s Direct Connect (DC) establishes a physically isolated, dedicated, and reliable network connection between customers’ on-premises IDCs, third-party IDCs, and Huawei Cloud, replacing the traditional public network communication model. Through Direct Connect, customers can achieve high-speed connectivity between their on-premises IDCs and cloud VPCs, with data transmission not passing through the public network. This effectively addresses issues such as high latency, link jitter, severe packet loss, and service interruptions in cross-IDC and cross-cloud connections, ensuring real-time data synchronization and stable service operation in a hybrid cloud architecture, while also meeting the data security and compliance requirements in government and enterprise scenarios.

 

2. High-Speed Interconnection Across Multiple Regions in the Cloud via Cloud Connect: Huawei Cloud’s Cloud Connect (CC) provides a unified interconnection capability across multiple VPCs in different regions, enabling customers to build a high-speed, low-latency, and stable private network for communication between multiple Huawei Cloud regions. Through the Cloud Connect solution, customers can achieve one-hop private network access from service nodes and clusters distributed in different regions, effectively addressing pain points such as multi-region isolation, slow cross-region access, low collaboration efficiency, and complex networking. This solution supports nationwide and global business deployment, cross-region data transfer, multi-site collaboration, and disaster recovery, significantly improving the cross-region service experience and system availability.

 

3. Cost-Effective Intelligent Storage of Massive Data via OBS Intelligent Buckets: Customers can store all their data, including documents, backups, and logs, in Huawei Cloud’s Object Storage Service (OBS). Leveraging the intelligent bucket capability of OBS, data is automatically managed and tiered based on access frequency: hot data is stored in the Standard storage class to ensure read and write performance, warm data is stored in the Infrequent Access storage class to reduce costs, and cold data is automatically moved to the Archive storage class for long-term, low-cost retention. OBS intelligent buckets support elastic scaling, highly reliable and durable storage, and full-link security control. This not only meets the needs of high concurrency and large-capacity storage for businesses but also significantly reduces overall storage costs, simplifies data lifecycle management, and optimizes resource utilization.
