1.1. Cloud Computing Promotes Financial Business Innovation and Resource Integration

Under the cloud computing technology framework, information can be shared among all-level financial organizaitions and regulatory organizations through building the private cloud platform of the financial industry. Cloud terminals can be connected through browsers, so the comprehensive database and information of each department can be accessed.  With fast computing capacity and larger storage room, the cloud computing can speed up the data updating and more completely record the credit information. With cloud computing, the vast amounts of data and data centers of the financial industry can get centralized management and maintenance, thus greatly reducing the later cost for maintaining the information and simplifying the management work, which will greatly promote the construction and development of the future financial system.

- Cloud computing promptly meets the business needs of the financial industry.

- Cloud computing effectively enhances the processing of the vast amounts of financial data.

- Cloud computing increases the data storage capabilities and the data reliability.

- Cloud computing fully increases the financial information management efficiency.

- Cloud computing reduces the financial information construction costs.

1.2. Cloud Computing Promotes Financial Information Construction

- Cloud computing if of great significance in promoting the financial business standardization and business innovation.

The emergence of cloud computing technique will effectively standardize the financial business procedures and business norms of all-level financial organizations, and form unified and financial-characteristic business norms, regulations and technical standards. This can provide firm guarantee for setting up the financial industrial standards and promoting the business innovation.

- Cloud computing provides a good platform for promoting the information resources integration of the financial industry.

The building of the cloud computing center can provide users with unified, centralized and shared information resources. Through effectively integrating the dispersed IT resources, business system and data resources, a huge resource-share poll can be formed to provide various information service to the public.

- Cloud computing is comprehensively changing the traditional financial service modes.

Through the huge resource pool, the cloud computing unifiedly provides information resource services, thus realizing the quickly and need-oriented deployment of the resources and need-oriented filling. This is a kind of flexible IT service payment mode that provides convenience for developing new business, thus improving enterprises’ producing and management efficiency.

1.3. Solution architecture

The whole “financial cloud” platform is designed mainly by adopting the concept of business area (i.e. physical resources areas with the server cluster at the core). Business area is the basic hardware composing unit of the system, and the system is totally composed of several business areas. The system scale can be enlarged by adding the number of business areas, so the system has very good expansibility. The business network switch of the business area is connected to the core switching area in the gigabit way, and then connected to the other business areas and extraterritorial systems through the core switching area.

1.4. Solution advanteges

- Adopting home-made and proprietary technology to create self-innovative, safe and controllable financial cloud computing center.

Sugon is the leading company in the domestic IT industry, and has rich technical reserve in the field of cloud computing, cloud storage and cloud safety. Sugon is going to build Kunming City Cloud using completely its own proprietary techniques, and ensure that the code is controllable, the technical leak is detectable, and the safety matter can be traced back. This demonstrates the self-innovation characteristics and fully serves the construction, operation and maintenance of the cloud computing center.

- Fully using the cloud coputing technology to create the high-performance and highly usable cloud computing center.

Combining the financial business and its practice characteristics, this solution specifically adopts several kinds of advanced cloud computing techniques such as virtualization, cluster and intelligent delivery, thus to realize the encapsulation and abstraction of the physical resources and form flexible, dynamic, high-performance and stable computing resource pool and storage resource pool, not only satisfying the requirement of the financial industry on the underlying support platform but also giving great flexibility to the application system of the financial industry.

- Fully considering the sensibility and high safety requirements of business data of the financial industry and building the safe cloud computing center of the financial industry.

This solution gives full consideration to the sensibility and high safety requirements of business data of the financial industry, and adopts DBstor backup system to provide offline backup for the system data, thus to avoid sigle copy in the system. In the whole financial cloud computing center, the whole Sugon CloudFirm cloud safety solution is adopted to provide the data with full ranges of protection from the network safety, data safety to the terminal safety.

- Adopting scientific management methods and means to set the high-performance operation and maitenance procedure.

Sugon has rich experience in the construction, operation and maintenance of the data center. With the advent of cloud computing era, by adopting high-performance management tools, Sugon provides multi-level, automated and full range of management tools, from infrastructure level to the intelligent payment level, from the physical resource level to the virtual resource level.

- Fully demonstrating the green design concept, adopting many kinds of energy-saving technique to reduce the user TCO.

In this solution, we combine the CLoudview energy consumption management system with the CloudBASE infrastructure solution and realize multi-level energy consumption control, from IT equipment resouce to the room cooling envrionment, thus to effectively reduce the users’ inputs on later operation and maitenance and realize the overall goal of energy saving.
