GBASE partners with H3C to launch a fully in-house developed infrastructure database solution

As information technology advances rapidly, enterprises face an explosive growth in data processing needs, along with increasingly diverse data types and structures. At the same time, the importance of data and information security has become more pronounced, and businesses have a stronger demand for uninterrupted operations. This has spurred the need to transition to locally developed infrastructure platforms and commercial databases. While this creates a broad market for upstream and downstream industries, it also motivates Chinese database vendors to accelerate technological innovation and enhance self-reliance.

Challenges in Transitioning to Homegrown Databases

In recent years, although national and local governments have rolled out policies to support the adoption of domestically developed databases, many challenges remain during actual implementation:

Technological Advancement: Databases must deliver comprehensive security protection, high reliability and stability, SQL compatibility, and performance optimization under large data volumes. Meanwhile, infrastructure platform providers need to offer leading-edge technology and comprehensive digital infrastructure capabilities to ensure overall technological excellence of the project.

Architecture Compatibility: When building a database infrastructure platform, enterprises need to select servers, storage, backup, networking, and other equipment. A decentralized evaluation and procurement approach may lead to performance and compatibility gaps across products, resulting in overall solutions that cannot meet business requirements and creating hidden risks to system stability.

Operational Ease: As core data storage software, the database system requires integrated monitoring and management of both database status and the infrastructure platform. The lack of unified O&M tools increases management complexity and operational risk.

Ecosystem Connectivity: The implementation, management, and operation of database projects demand close collaboration among business software vendors, database vendors, and infrastructure providers. A lack of long-term, open channels for technical and service communication will hinder smooth project execution.

H3C's Homegrown Infrastructure Platform Powers Efficient GBase Database Operations

To address these challenges, GBASE and H3C jointly built an efficient, stable, and easy-to-manage GBase 8c database solution.

GBase 8c is GBASE's self-developed multi-model, multi-mode distributed database. It supports multiple storage engines, including row-based, column-based, and in-memory storage, delivering secure, stable, and reliable data storage and management services for core business systems across industries. H3C provides a secure and reliable homegrown infrastructure platform—encompassing servers, storage, and networking—that offers solid platform support for the secure, stable, and efficient operation of the GBase 8c database.

Technological Advancement: GBase 8c is GBASE's self-developed multi-model, multi-mode intelligent distributed database, featuring intelligent optimization, intelligent O&M, and intelligent security. It supports high performance, high availability, elastic scaling, and strong security, meeting diverse enterprise needs.

Infrastructure Advantage: The solution includes a full stack of homegrown hardware and software—servers, storage, backup, and networking—providing an integrated infrastructure design validated by H3C to ensure smooth project rollout.

O&M Management Advantage: An integrated O&M management tool provides unified monitoring and management of the database operating environment, reducing operational complexity and ensuring system stability.

Ecosystem Collaboration Advantage: Through long-term ecosystem collaboration, GBASE and H3C have established open technical and service communication channels, enabling rapid integration of both parties' superior resources to deliver full lifecycle management support to customers.

The combination of H3C's homegrown infrastructure platform and GBASE's GBase 8c database not only meets enterprises' needs for transitioning to locally developed databases, but also leverages H3C's hardware validation and performance testing to ensure that database processing power can support core business scenarios. With GBase 8c's high security, high reliability, and high compatibility, paired with H3C's homegrown hardware, this delivers a comprehensive database solution for enterprises.

Looking ahead, GBASE and H3C will continue to deepen their cooperation, driving the innovation and adoption of homegrown database technologies and helping enterprises advance steadily on their digital transformation journey.
