At the Huawei Network Summit 2025 (Asia Pacific), Huawei unveiled its enhanced Xinghe Intelligent Fabric solution during the session “Xinghe Intelligent Fabric, Powering the AI Era.” This upgraded solution is designed to deliver a robust network infrastructure, accelerating digital intelligent transformation for enterprises across the Asia-Pacific region.
Wang Yidong, Director of Huawei’s Asia Pacific ICT Marketing & Solution Sales Dept, stated in his keynote speech: “Across the Asia-Pacific region, we have deployed cutting-edge data center network infrastructure for enterprises spanning multiple industries. Our high-performance, ultra-reliable, and highly secure network solutions empower customers to drive business innovation while maximizing operational efficiency”.
Arthur Wang, President of Data Center Network Domain, Huawei Data Communication Product Line, emphasized that as AI technologies advance and cloud-based architectures evolve, data center networks are at a pivotal transformation point. The upgraded Xinghe Intelligent Fabric solution adopts a three-layer network architecture — comprising AI Brain, AI Connection, and AI Network Element — to create a robust data center network that empowers connectivity with vast computing power for always-on services.
- AI Brain: Utilizing an exclusive network digital map and NetMaster (network agent), this layer automates process deployment, integrates network-security simulation, and automatically resolves 80% of faults, significantly enhancing O&M efficiency.
- AI Connection: Leveraging Huawei’s unique Network-Scale Load Balancing (NSLB) algorithm, this layer optimizes path planning, alleviates network performance bottlenecks, and boosts AI training efficiency by over 10%. Additionally, the iReliable three-level reliability technology, along with optical module channel loss resistance and contamination/looseness detection, ensures zero service interruptions.
- AI Network Element: Built on the CloudEngine series of data center switches and StarryLink optical modules, this layer offers high-precision traffic detection and visualizes network packet loss and latency. It also provides intrinsic security and group isolation capabilities, significantly enhancing overall network security.
At the session, Welcome Chan, IT Security and Network Director of Chong Hing Bank, and Adam Lam, Solutions Architect of Hong Kong Broadband Network, shared the results of their collaboration with Huawei and business practices. Additionally, the session invited Dario ROSSI, Director of Huawei’s Data Communication Network Algorithm and Measurement Technology Laboratory, Paris Research Center, to share the development trends of data center networks in the AI era.
Moving forward, Huawei will collaborate with partners and customers to deepen R&D and innovations in the data center network field, drive intelligent network upgrades and next-generation evolution, and fuel digital transformation across industries with cutting-edge solutions.
