Huawei Intelligent Cloud-Network, à la pointe de l’innovation numérique

BANGKOK, 22 septembre 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Huawei a dévoilé les capacités améliorées de sa solution Intelligent Cloud-Network lors du sommet « Intelligent Cloud-Network, Leading Digital Innovation » (à la pointe de l’innovation numérique), qui s’est tenu à Bangkok dans le cadre de l’événement HUAWEI CONNECT 2022. Ces capacités concernent trois principaux scénarios, CloudFabric, CloudWAN et CloudCampus, et ont été créées dans le but de répondre aux besoins changeants des clients. Huawei a également publié son livre blanc sur l’architecture de réseaux intelligents sans fil afin de guider davantage les entreprises dans leur innovation numérique.

À mesure que la transformation numérique progresse, les services d’entreprise créent de nouvelles exigences pour les réseaux de communication de données. Tout d’abord, le grand nombre de connexions IoT exige une connectivité omniprésente et à très haut débit. Ensuite, les services des filiales d’entreprise migrent progressivement vers le cloud, ce qui oblige les réseaux à fournir un déploiement flexible et des capacités de migration vers le cloud rapide.  Troisièmement, les nouveaux services doivent être déployés à grande échelle et nécessitent des ajustements fréquents, ce qui exige que les réseaux soient souples, sécurisés et efficaces. Enfin, les vidéoconférences se généralisent, ce qui signifie que les réseaux doivent garantir une expérience de communication déterminante.

Sun Liang, vice-président de la ligne de produits de communication de données de Huawei, a fait remarquer que Huawei Datacom avait mis au point la solution intelligente de réseau sur cloud grâce à une innovation continue pour relever les défis mentionnés ci-dessus. Cette solution propose des fonctionnalités essentielles telles que l’expérience d’accès ultime, l’accès ultrarapide au cloud par les filiales, l’expérience déterminante et le déploiement efficace et simplifié. La solution Intelligent Cloud-Network est aujourd’hui très répandue dans des secteurs tels que l’éducation, le commerce de détail, l’administration et la finance, facilitant ainsi la transformation numérique des clients. Par exemple, dans le secteur de l’éducation, la solution de réseau Wi-Fi entièrement sans fil fournit une expérience d’accès au réseau ultime ; dans le secteur du commerce de détail, la solution d’accès au cloud ultra-rapide SD-WAN permet d’ouvrir un magasin en une seule journée ; dans le secteur gouvernemental, la technologie de segmentation du réseau de Huawei permet un transport convergent sur un seul réseau et une assurance complète des services essentiels à l’entreprise ; dans le secteur financier, la solution simplifiée de déploiement de services sur plusieurs clouds dans plusieurs domaines permet de déployer des services en quelques minutes.

Lors de la conférence, Huawei a également dévoilé plusieurs nouveaux produits de communication de données, notamment le premier point d’accès Wi-Fi 7 AirEngine 8771-X1T, le commutateur de campus de nouvelle génération CloudEngine S16700, prêt pour le 400G, et le routeur de service universel intelligent NetEngine 8000 M4.

Huawei releases its Wireless Intelligent Network Architecture White Paper

Huawei a également publié son livre blanc sur l’architecture de réseaux intelligents sans fil. Liu Jianning, président du service marketing et ventes de solutions de Global Enterprise Network chez Huawei, a déclaré que l’un des changements les plus importants pour les réseaux de campus est la mise en place de réseaux entièrement sans fil. Le passage au Wi-Fi 6 et au Wi-Fi 7 à l’avenir implique de nouvelles exigences en matière de bande passante, d’architecture et d’exploitation et de maintenance du réseau. Pour répondre à ces nouvelles exigences, Huawei propose une architecture de réseau de campus de nouvelle génération : l’architecture de réseaux intelligents sans fil. Cette architecture présente sept caractéristiques uniques : elle est entièrement sans fil, hyperconvergée, à ultra large bande, simplifiée, à faible émission de carbone, sécurisée et intelligente.

Lors de la conférence, des clients de divers secteurs ont fait part de la manière dont ils ont appliqué la solution de réseau cloud intelligent de Huawei dans leurs pratiques commerciales. Agus Ariyanto, vice-président du réseau chez Biznet, a prononcé un discours intitulé « Biznet établit un réseau étendu intelligent orienté vers l’avenir ». Il a déclaré : « Huawei, qui repose sur un réseau métropolitain plat, aide Biznet à consolider son rôle de leader de l’industrie. Ensemble, nous explorerons plus en détail les technologies émergentes et l’innovation commerciale basée sur l’EPI. »

Cabinet discusses load shedding challenges

Cabinet has reiterated government’s commitment to resolving the current load shedding crisis gripping the country.

Cabinet held a virtual meeting on Wednesday, following President Cyril Ramaphosa’s return to the country to deal with the load shedding issue.

The country has been gripped in a wave of load shedding for the past three weeks, with Eskom’s energy generation challenges pushing load shedding to Stage 6.

Government spokesperson, Phumla Williams, said Cabinet recognised the inconvenience and disruption caused by the load shedding.

“Cabinet expressed regret that intermittent load-shedding is happening at the time when government is vigorously engaged with interventions announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa in July 2022 to overcome the surmountable energy crisis facing the country.

“Cabinet remains committed to resolving the issue of energy security in the country and welcomes the concerted efforts being made by government and stakeholders to find a permanent solution to end load shedding,” Williams said.

She said Cabinet is discussing reports from the Department of Public Enterprises and the National Energy Crisis Committee on the challenges facing the power utility.

“Public Enterprises Minister, Pravin Gordhan, today presented a briefing on the capacity of Eskom and a progress report from the Technical Committee of the National Energy Crisis Committee.

“Cabinet is still deliberating on these reports and will soon provide a comprehensive feedback to the South African public,” Williams said.

Pandor calls on global leaders to deal with poverty, inequality and unemployment

While the COVID-19 pandemic and East European war have severe global consequences, Minister Naledi Pandor says the world should not neglect the needs of the marginalised.

“Our greatest global challenges are poverty, inequality, joblessness and feeling excluded,” the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) Minister said on Wednesday.

Pandor was delivering South Africa’s statement to the 77th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA77).

“Acting on the Common Agenda Vision 2021 of the UN Secretary-General should become the major objective of this time because addressing poverty and underdevelopment will be the beginning of the real inflection point in human history,” she said.

The Minister reminded the leaders that the Charter of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration for Human Rights and its human rights protocols,which commit them to protecting everyone. 

“We must acknowledge that we face these crises today because we have not always upheld these foundational principles consistently and fairly.”

Solidary

Meanwhile, Pandor believes that global solidarity is required to meet other pressing challenges such as energy and food insecurity, climate change and the devastation caused by conflicts, including the existential threat of nuclear weapons.

“Instead of working collectively to address these challenges, we have grown further apart, as geopolitical tensions and mistrust permeate our relations,” she admitted.

“We should, however, move forward in solidarity, united in efforts to address our common global challenges to ensure sustainable peace and development.”

COVID-19

Pandor said developing countries, especially in Africa, should not be left behind in treatments where global pandemics such as COVID-19 are concerned. 

“It will be a tragic indictment on all of us as leaders if future pandemics found the poorest as unprepared as many were for COVID-19.”

She also called on strengthened global health architecture to better meet the challenges of new pandemics and other infectious diseases of concern.

“South Africa is proud to be part of this solution through the establishment of the first mRNA global technology transfer hubs, which will contribute to the security of supply of life-saving medication for African countries and other developing countries.”

Trade

In addition, Pandor said the multilateral trading system must be strengthened to create a conducive environment for fair trade that also provides opportunities for developing economies.

“If actionable steps such as these are not taken, developing countries will remain subject to an imbalanced global financial and trading system.”

Climate change

Pandor urged leaders to collectively deal with global energy shortages by deploying innovative solutions that are cheaper, cleaner and more accessible.

She said urgent action is needed to protect the environment and the world for the current and future generations.

“Whilst Africa is the least responsible for the climate crisis, it finds itself at the epicentre of its worst impacts.”

Pandor said the world needs to emerge from COP27, in Egypt in November this year, with an agreement that contains enhanced and balanced actions on adaptation, mitigation and financing.

Peace

The Minister also took the time to call peace a global public good.

“There have been no winners of the wars of the past seven decades. Instead, they engendered strife, distrust among nations, divisions, a perpetual misallocation of resources to weapons, and increased poverty and underdevelopment.”

She told the delegates that Israel must be held accountable for its destructive actions that have significantly impaired the possibility of a two-State solution.

“Similarly, we cannot ignore the decades-long struggle for self-determination of the people of Western Sahara. We must treat all conflicts across the globe with equal indignation, no matter the colour or creed of the people affected.”

She voiced South Africa’s stance to end the embargo against Cuba, which she said continues to impede the right to development of her people.

“In the same vein, we call for an end to unilateral coercive measures against Zimbabwe, which have compounded the problems experienced by the people of Zimbabwe and have a detrimental effect on the broader Southern African region.”

NELSPRUIT- A 42-year-old man from Kanyamazane (Phinda Matlaka), allegedly shot his 37-year-old girlfriend (Shirley Hassan) before his body was found with a bullet wound as well as a firearm next to him.

The heartbreaking incident took place at Kanyamazane Ext 1, outside the City of Mbombela this morning, Thursday 22 September 2022 at about 07:00 am.

Police and Emergency personnel were summoned to both scenes and on arrival, the female as well as the alleged suspect were certified dead by the medical personnel. The female is believed to have been in a relationship with the said man. Police are investigating a murder case with a probe of inquest to establish what had occurred as well as the circumstances. Preliminary investigation has since revealed that the firearm reportedly used was stolen with other items at Kanyamazane during a housebreaking incident on 16 September 2022.
