Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Entering the office, Xu Hui greeted everyone to take their seats. Huaxia only had Dafeng Group, and foreign companies only had Oracle, because before receiving the news that Dafeng Group had a database, Telecom had already screened them once, and finally chose Oracle. It was because I heard the news temporarily that I approached Meng Qian, and only then did I get into this situation today.

Xu Hui first said a few polite words, said a few hard words, and praised both sides, and waited until the mood was almost paved, and then took a document from the secretary, "Mr. Meng, Mr. John, Mr. Herman, this It’s the comparison of the test data we did.”

After getting the data from both sides, Telecom naturally made a comparison table, and had to show the results to both sides, so as to be convincing.

Both sides took a comparison report to check. A few minutes later, Meng Qian hadn't finished reading it yet, when he heard Herman next to him couldn't help it, "This is impossible!"

Facing Herman's reaction, Xu Hui responded with a smile, "Is there any problem with Mr. Herman?"

"I doubt the authenticity of the data." Herman was very straightforward, "Galewind Group has no experience in database development at all, how is it possible, I don't believe it."

Xu Hui responded unhurriedly, "Mr. Herman, the tests on both sides are carried out in our telecom group, and all data are backed up. If Mr. Herman doubts the authenticity of the data, as long as Dafeng Group This side agrees, we can provide more detailed content."

Seeing Xu Hui looking at him, Meng Qian turned his head to look at Herman, who was a little out of his composure, and showed a "good-hearted" smile, "What is Mr. Herman doubting specifically? He doesn't believe our historical data dump The efficiency is 30% higher than yours, or do you not believe that our query efficiency is 16% higher than yours? Or, do you not believe the 20:1 compression ratio we achieved?

If Mr. Herman's question is to check the data, the result will definitely be the same. But if Mr. Herman's question is interested in the principle, I would be happy to chat with Mr. Herman.

To put it simply, the key to the performance of our database lies in three points, information life cycle management, brand-new infrastructure and information automation system design. I believe Mr. Herman can understand this. "

Of course Herman could understand, every word of Meng Qian made him feel his head buzzing, the technical principle that Meng Qian said was what he was working on, and the result that Meng Qian achieved was what he had been longing for all along, but in his In the original idea, he should be the one who broke through these technologies, and he should be the one who achieved this result, not another person.

Herman is indeed an extremely arrogant person, but in fact, many people don't know the anger in his heart. In the history of American companies, there are three technical geniuses who are remembered and talked about. One is Bill Gates. Paul Allen, one is Steve Wozniak next to Steve Jobs, and the other is Bob Miller next to Ellison, but compared to Paul Allen and Steve Woz Nyak, Bob Miller's reputation is relatively small, because he passed away in 1993, and he can be regarded as a jealous talent.

After the death of Bob Miller, Herman began to shine in Oracle as another technical genius, and also contributed a lot of results to Oracle, but when everyone mentioned the development of Oracle, the first reaction was Bob Miller. Le, this is a knot in Herman's heart that has always been unresolved, so he worked very hard, because he wanted to prove himself, and he wanted to become a legend in Silicon Valley.

This also created his frustration after being defeated by Meng Qian again and again, because Meng Qian's behavior would further ruin his chances of becoming a legend in Silicon Valley. He was suppressed by a dead Bob Miller for so many years but had no way to vent his anger , now being suppressed by Meng Qian, his gaffe is actually an emotional outburst over the years.

Just looking at Meng Qian like this, Herman finally took a deep breath, he knew that Meng Qian did not lie to him, he knew it in his heart, but it was really hard for him to accept this reality now.

Seeing that Herman stopped talking, John who was sitting next to him gave him a disdainful look at first. John has always disliked Herman, but others did not see his slight emotion, and he was a little embarrassed to face it. In this situation, John seemed very calm, "Manager Xu, the performance of Dafeng Group's database is really surprising."

After finishing speaking, John turned around and looked at Meng Qian again, "The Dafeng Group is indeed the same as the rumors, which is amazing."

Seeing that John didn't seem to want to fight, Xu Hui couldn't help being a little surprised, but Meng Qian believed that things would not be so simple, and responded cooperatively, "Oracle bone script is always the predecessor, we are just standing on the shoulders of giants, if there is a chance If so, I look forward to the opportunity to cooperate with Oracle."

John smiled and got up to shake hands with Meng Qian, "Well, I am also looking forward to it, oh yes, when it comes to cooperation, IBM's server and AIX platform are about to undergo major reforms, has Dafeng Group entered the AIX alliance? Need our help?"

Meng Qian, Ding Mingyuan and Xu Hui all moved their eyes, and they moved out of the IOE.

In the field of databases, there is an era called the IOE era, which refers to the era of the combination of IBM servers, Oracle databases, and EMC data storage. Around 2010, Huaxia set off the trend of going to IOE and opened the post-IOE era. Huaxia's own database and server began to develop.

In the IOE era built by the three companies, they are stepping on the bones of countless related companies. John is reminding Xu Hui that it is not enough for Dafeng Group to have a database. Although there are other servers and platforms besides IBM, IOE The era is actually just a name. The real meaning behind him is that the entire United States has reached an external alliance in related fields, such as HP. Although IOE does not have his name, he is also in this natural alliance that does not need to be explained in black and white. middle.

Faced with John's seemingly clever suggestion, Meng Qian responded with a completely indifferent expression, "Our Dafeng Group's database can support many platforms. In addition to Unix systems such as AIX and HP-UX, we also support platforms like ES. .”

"ES?" John's brain turned around quickly, and the result could only be a look of confusion. He is the marketing director of Oracle, but he has never heard of any ES platform, so he had to confirm it again, "Mr. Meng said Yes, ES platform?"

"That's right."

"I don't know which company's platform this is?"

Meng Qian and Xu Hui looked at each other, and responded with a smile, "Huawei."

Many people think that Huawei only started to make servers in 2008, of course, because many media reported that, but the fact is that Huawei only officially sold servers to the outside world in 2008, and Huawei’s server research and development began in 2001 of.

In the intervening seven years, Huawei's servers were basically used for its own use and for some cooperative organizations.

For the first time, there was a noticeable change in John's expression. He is actually not very familiar with Huawei, but he has heard of it. But the important thing is that he knows that it is a Chinese company, which is enough for him. Alerted.

With Huaxia's database and Huaxia's server, John's market acuity made him immediately realize that this matter is not that simple.

What is before him is not just a challenge to Oracle, but a challenge to the entire IOE era.

And Meng Qian's purpose is indeed very pure, regardless of the pre-IOE era and post-IOE era, in this life, Huaxia will have its own era.
