- Overview
-
With the aim of "Application-Driven, Interconnection of Everything", H3C Application-Driven Networking Solution (AD-NET) provides a proactive, adaptive and versatile network to achieve two capabilities: massive connection of things based on the Internet of Things (IoT), and network reconstruction based on the Software Defined Network (SDN). It creates a sustainable and massively-connected ecosystem to support the traditional industrial chain for digital transformation.
As a leading supplier of digital solutions, H3C has launched multiple Application-Driven solutions based on SDN for Data Center (DC), Campus, and Wide Area Network (WAN), etc.
Application-Driven Data Center (AD-DC) solution helps to realize resilient deployment of a network, and accelerates tenants isolation at cloud-based data centers.
Application-Driven Campus (AD-Campus) solution provides the benefits for user authorization, and streamline operation and maintenance at mobile offices.
Application-Driven WAN (AD-WAN) solution visualizes the traffic and application, and ensures the quality of key services.
AD-NET solutions based on SDN have been widely applied in the industries of Internet, finance, government, ISPs, enterprises, etc. It provides a reliable and nimble network infrastructure for digital transformation of the society.
H3C Application-Driven Data Center (AD-DC) Solution is an integrated solution designed based on H3C VCF controllers for data centers. It provides security and load balancing features for Layer 4 through Layer 7 and is compatible with various upper-layer cloud platforms. With these features, the solution can create a resilient, secure, visible, and automated network for data centers by using a public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud.

Solution
-
H3C Application-Driven Data Center (AD-DC) Solution is a data center solution based on SDN architecture. It accelerates deployment of network infrastructure, simplifies network operation and maintenance, and optimizes network with higher efficiency.
Campus networks have great challenges in the face of increased mobility, emerging IoT and abundant applications. How to integrate applications with network infrastructure, ensure experience consistency, and simplify network management, it leads to a good subject for new generation campus solutions.
H3C Application-Driven Campus (AD-Campus) Solution creates a new-generation flexible network infrastructure. The solution converts campus network from “user adapts to network” to “network adapts to users”, enabling users and devices to roam around campus seamlessly. It reduces complexity of network deployment and maintenance and meets the increased requirements of mobility and IoT access in campus network in digital transformation.

Success Case
-
The biggest issue of the Chinese university's campus network at that time was its rigid architecture and complicated operational and maintenance workload. BYOD applications were widely adapted across the campus and wireless mobile officing had become the mainstream access mode.
H3C Application-Driven WAN (AD-WAN) Solution adopts the architecture of SDN, rebuilds and reconstructs the conventional rigid WAN to its next generation with intelligence.
With an open network platform, users can intelligently steer the networking resources, and visualize the applications for "one-click" implementation, fully utilizing the bandwidth and streamlining the O&M of the network.
