Huawei Cloud Workspace: 8 Years of Being the Best in China
Jun 07, 2024
Huawei Cloud has ranked No. 1 in China's virtual desktop market for 8 years in a row, according to IDC's China Semiannual Virtual Client Computing Software and Cloud Services Tracker, 2023H2.
In recent years, with the expansion of office applications and the SaaS market scale, the iteration of cloud services has accelerated. As a result, more organizations from both the public and private sectors have opted for digitalization, including migrating office workloads to the cloud.
All-cloud foundation
With the maturity of cloud native technologies and the upgrade of market requirements, cloud computing has entered a new stage. Huawei Cloud continuously invests in cloud native research and provides ever-evolving cloud desktop solutions from local deployment to cloud services based on the cloud migration paces of different customers. Huawei Cloud Workspace can be deployed on multiple infrastructure platforms, such as the public cloud, Huawei Cloud Stack, CloudPond, and virtualization platforms. The Huawei Delivery Protocol (HDP) enables Workspace to offer consistent and premium experience.
Huawei Cloud is the only vendor in China that supports the full-stack deployment of cloud desktop services at the edge of the public cloud. Workspace on CloudPond not only meets the requirements for local data storage, but also has the advantages of the public cloud desktop, ensuring data compliance and unified O&M.
To streamline applications on different platforms and allow enterprises to choose their desired office devices and software, Huawei Cloud Workspace supports operating systems such as Windows, UOS, and Kylin OS. It can be used on various terminals such as computers, laptops, TCs, and tablets, and adapt to nearly 10,000 software products and thousands of peripherals.
Unparalleled experience
Huawei Cloud Workspace continuously optimizes user experience, including upgrading the HarmonyOS style and launching the real-time report function to control high-frequency operations and push key information.
In terms of visual experience, the HDP allows for 4K ultra-HD lossless display with 144 FPS and 10-bit color depth, meeting the visual requirements of designers.
When the network is unstable during business trips or work from home, Workspace can automatically adjust network parameters using scenario-based coding algorithms to ensure smooth user experience.
As collaborative work becomes the normal for more companies, Huawei Cloud collaborative desktops enable team members in different places to start collaboration with just a few clicks. In this way, employees can simultaneously edit complex files such as CAD, significantly improving collaboration efficiency.
High security
For enterprise managers, data security holds the key to protecting their business secrets and enterprise assets.
Workspace accumulates Huawei's years of experience and capabilities in R&D data security, protecting your digital assets through cloud, pipes, and devices. With measures such as terminal and peripheral control, encrypted transmission, access control, and cloud desktop policy control, enterprises can flexibly control data permissions of different employees to ensure data security and controllability. In addition, to restrict administrators' permissions, Workspace supports rights- and domain-based security management and separation of roles to ensure that important data operations are approved separately.
Workspace also supports self-service snapshot capturing, data restoration upon accidental deletion, active-active DR, and array replication DR to maintain long-term stability and reliability of your business.
Intelligent O&M
Workspace enables global visualized management, cross-cluster resource scheduling, and unified planning for your office IT resources, maximizing resource utilization and improving O&M efficiency by 10 times compared with traditional office modes.
Workspace supports intelligent dashboard-based management. With visualized statistical reports updated in real time, the IT team can clearly view the desktop resource usage. In this way, the IT team can efficiently manage desktops throughout their lifecycle, such as desktop deployment, startup and shutdown, service change, user self-service, and reclamation. In addition, Workspace supports automatic risk warning. Routine health checks are performed on the network, login, and resource usage to proactively defend against potential risks.
Huawei Cloud Workspace serves over 4 million users in more than 110 countries and regions, and continues expanding its innovation to industries such as government, finance, manufacturing, carrier, media, healthcare, and energy.
Looking ahead, Huawei Cloud will continue diving into digital with Everything as a Service, with the ever-evolving Workspace that unleashes the productivity of digital office work.
