Recently, in the "Dialogue with Directors" series live stream on Huawei's O3 Community, Shi Lei, Director of Huawei iMaster NCE Campus Network Products, and Liu Chao, Product Director of GLINK Century, conducted an in-depth dialogue. They discussed key topics including campus networks, SD-Branch, digital maps, SASE evolution, and AI intelligent operation and maintenance. This live stream not only showcased Huawei's cutting-edge achievements in intelligent network management but also highlighted GLINK's leading practices in service innovation, ecological collaboration, and delivery efficiency as a capability-oriented MSP (Managed Service Provider).

MSP Model: GLINK's Evolution from Wide-Area Networking to Network-Security Integration

As a pioneer MSP with 22 years of industry experience, GLINK Century started with traditional dedicated lines, went through the SD-WAN development stage, and has now fully advanced into a leading service provider offering "light asset + full managed" network-security integration services. As Liu Chao stated in the live stream: "Network construction is just the beginning; what truly determines customer satisfaction is subsequent operation and management." With 219 PoP nodes nationwide, a self-built backbone network, and a nationwide delivery and service system, GLINK has served over 3,000 multi-branch customers, possessing large-scale and highly reliable operation and maintenance capabilities.

In-depth Integration to Empower Customers with One-Stop Experience

The in-depth cooperation between GLINK and Huawei extends from SD-WAN to campus networks, border security, and zero-trust access, achieving unified management of the entire network centered on the iMaster NCE controller. Based on GLINK's self-built backbone network, the two parties jointly built a multi-tenant SASE service architecture, seamlessly linking devices such as APs, switches, firewalls, and integrated gateways with intelligent controllers. Customers can not only enjoy high-performance network experience but also obtain agile deployment and refined security control.

Especially in aspects such as nearby access to overseas nodes, cloud-network integration for cloud migration, and security border management, GLINK integrates Huawei's solutions to provide customers with end-to-end full-scenario capabilities from PoPs to branches to terminals, meeting diverse business needs.

AI Empowerment to Improve Operation and Maintenance Efficiency

In the live stream, Shi Lei demonstrated the latest achievements of digital maps and intelligent agents (Copilot + Agent). Liu Chao also shared GLINK's in-depth application scenarios: in the daily operation and maintenance of managing tens of thousands of lines and devices, through AI algorithms and second-level visualization systems, engineers can proactively identify problems, issue alarms, and perform intelligent troubleshooting. Service efficiency is greatly improved, providing customers with a "visible, manageable, and reliable" network experience.

Ecological Collaboration to Help Partners Transform into MSPs

In addition to providing services to end customers, GLINK is also promoting upstream and downstream partners to build an MSP ecosystem. In the live stream, Liu Chao detailed GLINK's cooperation model with agents, integrators, and in-building network service providers: Huawei outputs product capabilities, GLINK is responsible for integration implementation and managed services, and partners can quickly enter the MSP track with light assets, improving customer service capabilities and transaction efficiency. GLINK has achieved win-win cooperation with many channel partners and will open up more resources and experience support in the future to help partners transform and upgrade.

Looking to the Future, Continuing to Co-create Value

This "Dialogue with Directors" live stream not only reflected GLINK's core strengths in customer service, solution integration, and ecological collaboration but also demonstrated the close linkage between Huawei and GLINK in fields such as data communication networks, SASE, and security terminals. As a capability-oriented MSP, GLINK relies on Huawei's powerful products and extensive ecological system, combined with its own backbone and operation and maintenance service system, to provide customers with complete end-to-end solutions and maximize product value.

In the future, GLINK will continue to uphold the service concept of "Customer First," join hands with Huawei to help more government and enterprise customers complete digital transformation, and build a stable, secure, and intelligent network foundation for thousands of industries.
