At present, digital technology has become an important driving force to promote economic and social development. The outline of China’s 14th five year plan points out that to meet the digital era, activate the potential of data elements, promote the construction of network power, accelerate the construction of digital economy, digital society and digital government, and drive the transformation of production mode, lifestyle and governance mode with digital transformation as a whole.
Developing digital economy is a strategic choice to grasp the new opportunities of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial reform. As early as 2021, the action plan for innovation and development of industrial Internet (20212023) issued by the Ministry of industry and information technology proposed to promote basic telecom enterprises to provide high-performance, high reliability, high flexibility and high security network services. Explore the deployment of new technologies such as cloud network convergence, deterministic network and IPv6 segmented routing (srv6).
Some experts said that for communication operators, the digital economy promotes a new round of industrial transformation, and industrial digitization further drives the transformation of operators. Communication operators are required to build cloud network integration capability and enter the core field of value creation through cloud network integration.
At the same time, with the deepening of the application of cloud technology, more and more enterprises also put their core businesses on the cloud, and the requirements for network speed, delay, reliability and cloud transformation experience of IT system are significantly improved. Operators can rely on their own advantages to provide one-stop cloud network integration services for the industry.
As the main force in building a network power, digital China and maintaining network information security, Chinese communication operators are actively exploring the construction of new infrastructure for cloud network integration, constantly consolidating the base of intelligent and comprehensive digital economy, and enabling the overall improvement of the ability of digital transformation and upgrading of economy and society.
“Accelerating the layout of new information infrastructure with cloud network integration as the core feature will help promote the construction of Digital China and the high-quality development of digital economy, help central enterprises lead industrial innovation, and inject new momentum into economic and social transformation and upgrading.” Recently, Li Chunyu, vice president of the industrial division of the government enterprise information service group of China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) Group Co., Ltd., said at the cloud industry innovation sub forum of the 2022 World Telecom and information society day conference.
In this regard, relevant insiders believe that the digital infrastructure is accelerating its evolution from the connection based network infrastructure to the intelligent comprehensive digital information infrastructure with cloud network integration as the core feature, and the information “artery” of economic and social development is more unobstructed.
So, how to build a new competitive advantage? Li Chunyu said that the essence of digital transformation is data-driven, so we should optimize the efficiency of resource allocation. As a communication operator, we should actively implement the mission of building a network power, digital China and maintaining network information security, actively build a service-oriented, scientific and technological and security enterprise, give full play to the basic advantages of the network and grasp the development trend of the cloud.
In fact, all walks of life are accelerating the digital development, especially in the 5g era, which has accelerated the pace of cloud network integration of operators, and the service content is also extending from the bottom to the top. In the era of digital economy, cloud network integration is comprehensively promoting the integrated development of digital economy and real economy, creating a booster for digital economy and social development, enabling thousands of industries and promoting economic and social transformation and upgrading.
