The Huawei Cloud Summit, with the theme “Accelerate Intelligence, Amplify Success”, concluded recently in Barcelona, bringing together hundreds of industry leaders and experts from sectors including carrier, finance, Internet, and government. Huawei Cloud unveiled a series of cutting-edge services and solutions, solidifying its commitment to driving intelligent transformation across diverse industries.
Today, AI is changing everything. Countries and companies are putting AI as a core strategy, and have the chance to build their own models. AI is not a game of heavy costs. AI models can be optimized by leveraging the achievements from the open source community. Data, especially high-quality data, plays a more and more important role in making AI a reality.
Jacqueline Shi, President of Huawei Cloud Global Marketing and Sales Service, pointed out that Huawei Cloud always puts AI as the company’s core strategy, and by transitioning from cloud-native to AI-native, Huawei Cloud leads the industry with non-stop innovation. She elaborated on that Huawei Cloud defines AI-Native in two sectors. One is “AI for Cloud”, which means they reshape and upgrade all Huawei Cloud services into intelligent ones using AI. The other is “Cloud for AI”, where Huawei Cloud aims to build the best platform, including compute architecture, data, model tools, and professional services, to accelerate the development of AI.
In 2024, Huawei Cloud experienced significant growth outside of the Chinese mainland, expanding by over 50%. The company has become a preferred partner for numerous organizations seeking for digital and intelligent upgrades, including over 140 carriers, 500 financial institutions.
Jacqueline restated Huawei Cloud’s determination in upgrading their cloud services and solutions to satisfy the requirements of customers in all industries, helping them accelerate intelligence.

Bruno Zhang, CTO of Huawei Cloud, shared his insights on transitioning from cloud-native to AI-native. In this AI era, the foundation of achieving AI-native lies in being cloud native. Over the past few years, Huawei Cloud has focused on assisting businesses in effectively going to, using, and managing cloud through cloud native means. Building upon this foundation, Huawei Cloud is now advancing towards the next stages: constructing AI-native infrastructure, such as CloudMatrix and AI Cloud Service; developing AI-native cloud services, including databases, knowledge lakes, and software development pipeline; and offering AI models and tools for customers and partners to better train and run their AI models.
Huawei Cloud sticks to the “AI for Industries” philosophy to build and upgrade their Pangu models, which now see wide adoption in over 30 industries across 400 use cases, including public services, finance, manufacturing, drug discovery, mining, steel manufacturing, railways, autonomous driving, industrial design, architectural design, and meteorology, driving real value creation everywhere. For example, robots powered by Pangu models can accurately inspect 32,000 items on a high-speed train, covering more than 350 complex fault conditions in 8 categories. They help high-speed railways improve operational efficiency and cut labor costs. Manual tasks in the early morning are significantly reduced. The Pangu Steel Manufacturing Model has been deployed at one of Baowu Group’s hot rolling production lines. It can quickly and accurately predict the optimal settings for hot rolling production lines, as well as critical quality metrics of the products. This helps improve the yield rate of steel plates.
