One Map & One Brain Collaborative Innovation: H3C’s Global Ops Topology Solution
H3C has launched a major innovative solution, the "Global Ops Topology" This is the latest innovation from H3C's ongoing efforts to integrate AIGC into intelligent operations and maintenance scenarios, bringing a new intelligent operations and maintenance perspective and experience to the industry.
One Map & One Brain Collaborative Strategy
Building a Panoramic, Intelligent O&M System
Large models, as the most revolutionary technology in the AI era, are gradually improving their capabilities and are profoundly impacting the operating models and business logic of traditional industries. Modern digital enterprises rely on high-quality networks to provide real-time awareness of user, network, and device status to rapidly respond to business changes, further driving the demand for extreme network operations and maintenance technologies.
Based on this, H3C pointed out that developing intelligent, efficient, and highly visualized network operations and maintenance solutions is the core of enterprise digital transformation, requiring breakthroughs in three key areas:
First, resources must be integrated to build a panoramic network O&M view, enabling comprehensive visibility of the network and services.
Second, with the increasing trend toward online and real-time operations, the need for networks adapting to the changes coordinately is increasing, but this can easily lead to significant risks. This needs to be verified through simulation to avoid risks in advance
Finally, AI-powered technology upgrades can enable rapid location and resolution of network faults, ensuring business continuity.
H3C has proposed a One Map & One Brain collaborative strategy facing these challenges. This collaborative strategy leverages the close integration of the Global Ops Topology and the LinSeer LLM, providing the Large Model with multi-dimensional, real-time key data and intent insights. LinSeer then leverages this data to make precise decisions, optimizing O&M processes and achieving seamless closed-loop management.
With One Map providing comprehensive insights and One Brain enabling intelligent decision-making, H3C’s One Map & One Brain collaborative strategy will drive the network towards advanced self-intelligence.
H3C Global Ops Topology
Six Key Capabilities Drive Intelligent O&M Transformation
H3C's Global Ops Topology leverages six key capabilities to address network O&M pain points, striving to Clearly, Long-term, Accurately.
With these capabilities, the Global Ops Topology not only presents a comprehensive network overview, but also predicts potential issues, precisely locates operational problems, and, through a combination of large models and AI agents, provides more interactive, intelligent solutions.
- Panoramic visualization, integrating multi-dimensional data to support decision-making:
Similar to a traffic map, the Global Ops Topology supports open and diverse data access, connecting to network-wide devices and third-party platforms. By processing multiple data types, AI algorithms accurately restore network topology. This One Map presents multi-dimensional dynamic data, providing services such as search and positioning, path navigation, and intelligent analysis, enabling comprehensive network monitoring.
- Full simulation and digital twin technology ensure network risk-free:
Leveraging detailed data, the Global Ops Topology's simulation function accurately simulates the dynamic interactions between network devices, predicts performance bottlenecks, optimizes network architecture, and assesses the impact of new services. Thereby, it can ensure business continuity and network stability. This promotes the transformation of network operations from experience-based to digital intelligence-based, making it an indispensable tool for ensuring secure business operations.
- Full-path detection ensures on-demand implementation of user intent:
The Global Ops Topology supports full-path detection. It regularly collects high-precision forwarding table entries from the device side and performs hierarchical modeling. It then accurately simulates forwarding paths based on network topology. If a path is found unreachable during the simulation, in-depth analysis based on the forwarding table entries can be performed to infer the root cause of the failure and conduct backtracking. It can significantly enhance operations personnel's ability to identify and respond to network failures.
- Full-factor navigation and real-time optimization enable intelligent traffic scheduling:
Taking WAN scenarios as an example, different services have vastly different requirements for network bandwidth and quality. Manually formulated routing strategies can be biased and reactive. The Global Ops Topology shifts service traffic routing and forwarding within the network from a manual-scheduling model to an automatic-navigation model driven by key factors. Historical scheduling information can also be reviewed to assist users in determining the rationality of paths, improving troubleshooting efficiency.
- Full-process traceability and AI-powered correlation analysis ensure accurate reasoning:
In campus scenarios, facing tens of thousands of terminals and user connectivity and faults, it is often difficult to determine the fault location based on a single log, alarm, or detection data source. Manual reasoning and analysis are both time-consuming and inaccurate. The Global Ops Topology supports AI-powered correlation diagnostic analysis, visually displaying network connectivity and fault information, providing root cause analysis, impact scope, and problem optimization suggestions. This solution shortens troubleshooting time and provides end-to-end visualization, effectively ensuring a superior user experience.
- Large Model + AI Agent for Efficient Troubleshooting:
Based on the collaboration of scenario-based AI Agents and LinSeer, the Global Ops Topology provides easy-to-use, intuitive, and efficient capabilities. It understands user intent through natural language, simplifying usage; links with the map to display information such as service topology; and, combined with AI Agents, accurately identifies problems and locates root causes, improving troubleshooting efficiency and enabling intelligent operations and maintenance across all scenarios.
Looking ahead, H3C will continue to create more intelligent and efficient O&M solutions, helping enterprises improve O&M efficiency and quality, and safeguarding their digital transformation. At the same time, H3C will actively explore new technology application scenarios, continuously expanding the boundaries of intelligent O&M, and bringing a more superior O&M experience to users around the world.
