Guoyuan Futures
Project Background
Guoyuan Futures Co., Ltd. was established on September 28, 1998. It is approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and is one of the first group members of the China Futures Association.
Under the unified deployment of the company's party committee, Guoyuan Futures has set 'developing financial technology' as its strategic goal. It has formulated the 'Financial Technology 14th Five-Year Plan', which aims to leverage new technologies such as big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and blockchain to provide development support for business innovation in company management, intelligent customer service, market marketing, risk control, and intelligent investment advisory. The plan aims to achieve the initial application of financial technology in various business sectors.
Demand Challenges
After proposing the strategic goal of financial technology, the traditional 'virtualization' model cannot meet the business development needs of Guoyuan Futures. The main problems are concentrated in the following aspects:
High resource costs: IT infrastructure composed of hardware is costly.
Poor resource elasticity: Hardware resources are difficult to form a unified resource pool, resulting in resource waste or insufficient resources.
Low operational efficiency: Lack of a unified visual management interface, users cannot self-provision, flexibly allocate, and use IT resources, resulting in low operational efficiency.
Solution Features
Cloud computing services are used to create a unified resource pool for customers, with features of autonomy, performance excellence, stability, and security.
Build simulation test area and production area on the private cloud.
Launch systems such as Hengsheng 2.0 disaster recovery system, CTP 2.0 trading system, etc., on the simulation test area based on the importance of the system and business attributes. Launch client access relay, CRM, etc., on the production area.
