LibrA is an essential component of Huawei's FusionInsight Big Data solution. It provides PB-level enterprise-class data warehousing capabilities, offering the ultimate in performance, reliability, scalability, security, and ease-of-use. Its massively parallel processor (MPP) and non-sharing architecture allow LibrA to scale out automatically, without service interruption or awareness, even in the face of explosive data growth. Customers can use x86 servers to scale out the system without increasing its total cost of ownership (TCO). LibrA leverages parallel computing, mixed row-column storage, and vectorized execution technologies to perform association analysis of trillions of data records in seconds. All of its components are redundant to ensure its enterprise-class reliability and to eliminate single points of failure (SPOF). LibrA also supports real-time full-text data retrieval on the Big Data platform without requiring any additional components.

Fan Ruiqi, VP of Marketing & Solution Sales, Huawei Enterprise Business Group, Western Europe, said:" The world is constantly changing, and the quantity of data being generated by financial companies, carriers, and large enterprises is growing every day. As cloud, Big Data, and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are evolving equally rapidly, our customers need Big Data analytics more than ever. Huawei's next-generation enterprise-class distributed converged data warehouse, FusionInsight LibrA, will help our customers analyze massive amounts of data in real time, generating increasing value for their businesses as their data grows."
