Key Achievements at Huawei: (censored and non exhaustive)
Huawei SDP passing Oracle and Ericsson to become #1
mostly thanks to the initiatives that I drove:
Multinational SDP: IT/SOA design instead of original design for
Chinese Operators; Beach heads outside China with
support/success story within LATAM (Telefonica LATAM, America
Moviles); Interest and adoption by all multinational operators
(Adopted: Telefonica Global, Vodafone GIG/LIG)
Hosted SDP services, Digital Shopping Mall and App store built
on Huawei Multinational SDP (Huawei hosted node as Global node
cross operator; one switch of a button subscription to service,
applications and content store for Operators and their
customers)
Huawei RCS (Broader than GSM concept, including Unified
Messaging, Communications, Collaboration and Social Networking)
and NGIN on SDP as SDP communications package:
SDP as a platform also for Network projects and services (legacy
and NGN)
SDP as platform for IPTV and Digital Home
Adding Messaging Services and Infrastructure as a marketing and
selling ploy to increase market share and open legacy messaging
customers to SDP opportunities.
Huawei becoming #1 in IPTV market shares
thanks to the IPTV migration to SDP that I drove and the
engagements (especially Middle East) around IPTV and SDP that I
supported
IPTV as SDP application; Digital Home as VAS and Application
store on SDP for IPTV
Strategy pushes resulting into Huawei Wide Reorganization and
new strategy in 2011
and its implications for Huawei SW and R&D with reorganization
across new BU: Carrier, Enterprises and Consumers (redefined as
Internet SPs) and focus on enterprise and Cloud.
Process and strategy recommendations Huawei wide on SW:
Organization and Process updates for product management, design
and architecture review, Open Source
New market focus (e.g. entry into Enterprise/IT market)
resulting into Huawei Wide
Reorganization in 2011 mentioned above.
Specific recommendations (e.g. Mobile OS, MW, Cloud, Internet of
things)
Transformation of Huawei SW Company
Creation of ARB (Architecture Review Board) for R&D across SW
Company and co-chair
Update of SW Consumer and Platform processes with rules of
engagement to facilitate design guidance and mandatory reviews
for R&D, field engagements and industry activities
Refocus to include Enterprise and Internet as example and
prelude of Huawei wide re-organization and new strategy focus
mentioned above.
Some key R&D activities:
SDP evolution:
New architecture for new release
To support App store, IPTV, RCS, NGIN and prepare for cloud
evolutions
To fix challenges like cross SEE integration performances,
especially for multinational SDP
Evolution of MDSP (integration to OSS/BSS)
Flexible, modular and SOA to facilitate end to end SOA business
processes (a la eTOM, AIA, SDF/SES) and support of Multinational
SDP requirements (e.g. no exchange of regulated customer data
cross borders)
