The company focuses on the fields of automotive steel, household appliance steel, energy steel and other products, with advanced production processes and equipment, strong research and development innovation capabilities, and product quality reaching international advanced levels. It is widely used in many well-known brands at home and abroad.

Facing challenges

the security risks are prominent: Traditional servers in various factories have been exposed to complex industrial environments for a long time, with high hardware failure rates; The old system poses security risks, and the management of each factory is decentralized, with different safety protection standards, further exacerbating the risks.

Lack of redundancy guarantee: Traditional standalone servers have no backup mechanism, and once hardware failures occur, it directly leads to business shutdown.

Low operation and maintenance efficiency: Each factory server is deployed independently without a unified management platform, and inspection and troubleshooting rely on manual labor, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Solution

In response to the digital L1/L2 transformation needs of special smelting plants, special smelting titanium alloys, forging plants, precision steel pipes and other plants, Baosteel Group adopts the Juchen Industrial Super Fusion Architecture Deployment Plan:

Based on the production scale, data processing complexity and business importance of each plant, Each hyper converged cluster is equipped with multiple hyper converged servers. Due to the complexity of the process, large amount of data, and high real-time requirements, the Special Metallurgical Plant and the Special Metallurgical Titanium Plant adopt a hyper converged architecture, which ensures efficient collection, analysis, and storage of massive data through distributed storage and computing resource pooling, meeting the high-precision production control requirements; The forging factory and the precision steel pipe business unit combine the characteristics of the production process and deploy a hyper converged cluster to ensure stability and efficiency while reasonably controlling costs. The solution achieves flexible resource allocation through software defined technology, synchronously establishes a unified security protection system and operation and maintenance management platform, accurately solves the pain points of traditional servers, and lays a solid foundation for intelligent upgrading.

Customer Revenue

Security and Stability Enhancement: The hyper converged architecture has built-in firewall and other security protection functions to achieve data encryption and unified policy management, standardize the security standards of each factory, and effectively resist network attacks and data leakage risks.

Redundancy Guarantee Reliable: Cluster architecture implements dual redundancy backup for computing and storage. Even if a single server's hard disk or other hardware fails, it will not cause business data loss, ensuring industrial data security.

Operation and maintenance efficiency has increased: The unified management platform integrates server resources from various factories, supports remote inspection and rapid fault handling, significantly shortens response time, and reduces labor costs.
