Scenarios

Hardware devices deployed in data centers:

  • Self-owned assets, with requirements for capital retention and dedicated security
  • Different lifecycles and configurations of servers; heterogeneous servers containing new and reused servers
  • Requirements for simplified data center network management and convenient server O&M

Scenarios where customers without any O&M team want to use public cloud services and use local deployment (data sovereignty)

Asset type

Medium and light assets. Customers rent the racks and network device assets of a data center.

Heavy assets, with a complex architecture, precise delivery process, and the latest and most comprehensive service types. There are high requirements for personnel and technologies, and the maintenance costs (such as deployment, upgrade, and scale-out) are high.
