Huawei and IEEE UAE section jointly release L3.5 data center autonomous driving network white paper

Dubai, UAE: At HUAWEI CONNECT 2022 in Dubai, Huawei and IEEE UAE Section jointly released the L3.5 Data Center Autonomous Driving Network White Paper, with industry forerunners UAE's Ankabut and Commercial Bank of Kuwait (CBK) witnessing the release. This white paper provides deep insight into the architecture, key capabilities, and typical application scenarios of L3.5 autonomous driving networks (ADNs) in data center scenarios, as well as deployment practices for key sectors such as finance, public service, and energy. Serving as an informative point of reference for enterprises, this white paper can help to take the automation and intelligence of data center networks (DCNs) to new levels.

According to the white paper, as the digital economy becomes a key driver for global economic growth and enterprise data centers expand rapidly, data center networks urgently need to solve the following most pressing problems:

- Multi-cloud and multi-DC heterogeneous networks have become the norm for enterprises. As such, enterprise customers need to centrally manage and coordinate multi-cloud DCNs and multi-vendor network devices as well as implement highly automated networks.

- The ADN needs to seamlessly integrate into enterprises' O&M systems and IT processes, which vary significantly between enterprises, so as to implement intelligent closed-loop management throughout
