Project Background
Outsources IT services
and focuses on core
services.
Huawei
SINOTRA
NS
Leverages cloud computing to
enter the IT field.
Expands the enterprise
blueprint.
Project introduction
As the largest integrated logistics
service provider in China, SINOTRANS
provides a full range of sea, land and
air transportation services that includes
storage wharf services, express
delivery, shipping agent services, and
freight forwarding.
This project integrated all of
SINOTRANS information
communication technology (ICT)
services. SINOTRANS outsourced the
construction and O&M of its existing IT
infrastructure to a carrier. The carrier
provided ICT services, including IaaS,
enterprise unified communications
(UC), data center O&M, and service
continuity.
Develops public cloud
services.
Transforms to the role
of ICT expert.

Cumbersome O&M Widening gap between demand and
supply
2001 2005 2010
Increased IT investment
• High investment in hardware
and software
• Increasing O&M costs, which
account for 50% of total IT
costs
Unreliable service systems
• Uneven reliability of service
systems
• Difficult fault location, time-
consuming troubleshooting,
and lack of management
control tools
Poor office environment
• Multiple types of terminals are
required to support mobile
offices.
• Users are bound to their PCs.
Long service rollout period
• The construction cycle is long
and service deployment is
difficult. Several months are
required to roll out a new system.
In 2010, the system required 15 types of
hardware and 26 types of software To keep the demand and supply balance, the
IT investment must increase by 20% annually.

Service Migration Content
SN Item Description
1 Project management The key to successful service migration is effective project management.
2 System research A survey is conducted to identify the IT status of the service system, migration risks, and the impact
on services.
3 Service impact analysis Service association and the impact of service interruption are analyzed based on the service
association survey.
4 Risk analysis Risks are analyzed based on the migration risk survey.
5 Migration strategy A detailed migration strategy is prepared based on the analysis in items 3 and 4 and the migration
principles.
6 Migration solution preparation An overall solution to service migration is prepared.
7 Migration plan preparation Migration plans for each department are prepared. These include the time required to become
familiar with migration tools, the data upload duration, final synchronization time, the duration of PC
and TC co-existence, and the PC-to-TC transition duration.
8 Risk countermeasure preparation Countermeasures are prepared based on service migration risks.
9 Desktop migration drill This item helps customers become familiar with the migration flow and improves the service
migration capability in various scenarios.
10 Migration simulation Service migration is simulated to resolve service migration problems.
11 Migration technical service A service migration tool is deployed in the data center, and related tests are conducted on the
migration tool. The services to be migrated are promoted.
12 Migration implementation Services are migrated from a traditional PC platform to the cloud platform based on the migration
plan.
13 Data backup All data is backed up before migration to ensure data availability and integrity.
14
Emergency plan
Services run on multiple platforms and levels. Therefore, emergency plans for each platform or level
must be prepared to ensure successful migration.

Use a virtual desktop migration tool to automatically
back up personal data.
The system uses the P2V and V2V tool to migrate
services offline. Data on the AD system is
synchronized in real time by AD domain duplication,
and data on the DNS is synchronized in real time by
DNS server backup. The original and target systems
coexist for a certain period of time. Stop the original
system after the target system begins to operate
normally.
