International, cross-industry thought leaders and city administrators also believe that global smart city construction signals the advent of a platform-based era.

Huawei Launches Digital Platform for Smart Cities based on its "Platform + Ecosystem" Strategy

At the Summit, Huawei launched its Digital Platform for smart cities. AI is at the core of the platform which integrates IoT, big data, Geographic Information System (GIS), video cloud and converged communications resources. The platform represents a shift from traditional information systems and lays a solid foundation for smart city development. Huawei has also developed a middleware platform to provide services to software application partners. This is designed to help application partners quickly develop upper-layer applications to accelerate transformation and innovation in city management, city services, and industry development.

Huawei's Digital Platform for smart cities leverages several unique capabilities. Firstly, Huawei is the industry's first vendor to provide a full-stack digital platform covering cloud-pipe-device technology, and Platform as a Service (PaaS) capabilities. Secondly, the Digital Platform for smart cities has comprehensive components and capabilities at the PaaS layer including IoT, big data, GIS, video cloud, converged communications, AI, and information security. The platform also includes an industry enablement platform that integrates these capabilities. Huawei's sustainable advantages are the result of its self-developed chips, algorithms, and architectural design, with technical innovation driven by customer demand, as well as continuous R&D investment.

To date, the Huawei Smart City Solution has served more than 160 cities in over 40 countries. For example, in Duisburg, Germany and Sardinia, Italy, the solution facilitates the development of startup companies, improving the cities' investment environment as well as the lives of citizens. In Rustenburg, South Africa, and Serbia, digital technologies continue to improve city development capabilities. Meanwhile, in the North Atlantic volcanic archipelago and Tianjin's Binhai New Area, AI enables cities to understand more about citizens to enhance city services.

Huawei works with cities across the world to explore digital transformation based on its Digital Platform, converged solutions from ecosystem partners, and integrated support from all stakeholders. In the future, Huawei's Digital Platform, with the latest AI technologies, will become the foundation of more smart cities and bring digital to every person, home and organization for a fully connected, intelligent world.
