Embracing Resilience: Huawei's AI-Driven Financial Services Framework at MWC 2025
In a transformative showcase at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025 held in Barcelona, Huawei introduced a ground-breaking proposition titled "Beyond Digital: Resilience Powers AI-Based Finance." The company launched its innovative R-A-A-S framework—standing for Reliability, Availability, Autonomy, and Security—featuring artificial intelligence at its core. This initiative is designed to assist financial institutions in establishing highly resilient infrastructures, necessary for navigating the complexities of today’s AI-driven era.
Jason Cao, the esteemed CEO of Huawei Digital Finance Business Unit, addressed the audience at the Huawei Financial Forum, emphasizing the relentless advancement of AI and its pivotal role in the ongoing financial evolution. “The global financial sector is transitioning from digital solutions to intelligent systems, where AI integrates into critical workflows, reshaping front, middle, and back office operations. Yet, this shift comes with unprecedented challenges to financial infrastructures that require robust resilience to embrace fully,” stated Cao.
Echoing his sentiments, Alvin Feng, Huawei’s Director of Global Marketing and Solution Sales, underscored that the rapid proliferation of AI generates both opportunities and challenges that necessitate elevated infrastructural standards. At the prior year’s MWC, Huawei set forth ambitious goals termed the "Four Zeros"—zero downtime, zero waiting, zero trust, and zero contact—within which the R-A-A-S framework functions as a resilient digital bedrock for finance.
Key Features of the R-A-A-S Framework
1.
Reliability: Assured data integrity is achieved through multi-copy storage systems combined with real-time synchronization and inter-domain coordination across storage, processing, and networking.
2.
Availability: Minimal service interruptions are prioritized through cell-based databases, microservices clusters, and multi-active cloud services, aiming for system availability rates as high as 99.999%.
3.
Autonomy: Aiming to eliminate human error, this feature facilitates fault detection within one minute, fault localization in five minutes, and fault correction within a ten-minute time span. Engaging advanced technologies like digital twins and AI, the solution enables smart simulations and observations across various infrastructure layers, compiling a comprehensive AIOps ecosystem covering cloud, security, and networking.
4.
Security: With a robust AI-driven defense system, the framework fosters seamless interaction among edge computing, cloud architectures, and network elements. This integrated approach ensures the quick identification and neutralization of cybersecurity threats within seconds, thereby fortifying data security.
Huawei is dedicated to delivering both design and full-stack product solutions, encompassing processing, storage, networking, and cloud services tailored specifically for financial clients. Presently, Huawei caters to 53 of the world’s top 100 banks and serves over 3,700 financial institutions across more than 80 countries.
