Jointly Promoting the Development of AI Technology in Thailand: DSG Invited to Attend the 2023 Thailand Huawei Cloud AI Summit
发布时间：2023.12.20

On December 18, 2023, the Huawei Cloud AI Summit was held at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) in Bangkok, Thailand. As a strategic partner of Huawei Cloud, DSG was invited to attend the summit.


This summit is jointly hosted by Huawei and the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society of Thailand, aiming to explore how Thailand can seize the key strategic opportunities for global AI development and promote the development of AI technology in the country. During the summit, the two parties signed a memorandum of understanding on digital transformation cooperation, reaching consensus on the development of AI technology, industry applications, ecosystem prosperity, and talent cultivation.

As the host of this summit, Huawei has built a bridge for Chinese investment in Thailand, connecting Chinese and Thai businesses, and bringing advanced technology, industry applications, and project experience from China to Thailand to enhance the digital AI competitiveness of local enterprises. Nearly a thousand government representatives, industry experts, Chinese enterprises, local customers, and partners gathered at the event to explore the future development of the AI industry in Thailand.




As a data management software vendor, DSG has been deeply cultivating the field of data management for more than 20 years, with the mission of "making data secure, allowing data to flow freely, and enabling data to realize its value". Its products and technologies have become the cornerstone of the development and application of the digital industry.

With self-developed technology, DSG's products and services cover various areas such as multi-source heterogeneous database data replication, migration, backup, and disaster recovery, effectively supporting real-time flow batch data collection for big data and artificial intelligence, real-time data warehouse development, and providing comprehensive and advanced solutions for data middle platform and data service platform.

DSG attaches great importance to potential opportunities and the Asia-Pacific market. At this summit, President Han Hongkun personally attended the event to explore development opportunities.

At the summit, DSG's expert team and industry colleagues discussed the latest trends and technologies in the AI industry, and showcased DSG's latest research results and solutions in the field of data management.



Through this summit, DSG has further strengthened its cooperation with Huawei Cloud, making a significant contribution to the development of AI technology in Thailand and reaping substantial rewards.

Earlier, DSG has established a deep strategic partnership with Huawei Cloud. In the Asia-Pacific region, the two parties have cooperated on projects such as the People's Bank of China, People's Insurance of China, KTC Bank in Thailand, and Mobile in Pakistan, advancing the release of more value from data together.

In addition, companies in the Asia-Pacific region such as U Mobile Sdn Bhd in Malaysia and PT SMART TELECOM in Indonesia are also historical clients of DSG, and have established deep cooperation through the implementation of specific projects.




Case Study: KTC Bank in Thailand





KTC (Krungthai Card) is a company in Thailand that provides credit card and related services, as well as personal loans. It is a credit card company under the Krungthai Bank in Thailand. The company has over 3.3 million accounts, including credit card and personal loan accounts. On October 28, 2002, the company was listed on the Financial Securities sector of the Stock Exchange of Thailand.




The core business system of KTC Bank in Thailand uses the IBM DB2/400 database system, which simultaneously runs the bank's core business and reporting applications. With the gradual upgrading of informatization construction, the original DB2/400 resources are not sufficient to support both transactional and analytical applications, therefore it is necessary to split the analytical applications and achieve a scenario of read/write separation.

Due to the poor performance of the DB2/400 database, the customer has raised multiple requirements for data replication modes.



Copy request

  • Multiple real-time replication tasks are configured for tables with high real-time requirements to meet the real-time data requirements of analytical applications.
  • For tables with low real-time requirements, full synchronization is implemented according to the business scenario, with fixed-time replication tasks from the production DB2/400 database to GaussDB every day.
  • For tables with low real-time requirements and extremely large data volumes, manual full synchronization is implemented on a scheduled basis to meet business needs.


In order to meet customer needs, Huawei Cloud has partnered with DSG to use DSG's DataXone, a comprehensive real-time data collection and sharing platform, to set up real-time and scheduled replication according to different scenarios, in order to replicate data from AS400's DB2 database to Huawei Cloud's GaussDB for MySQL.

Deployment instructions


The deployment will be in maximum availability mode, using a firewall as a security isolation device to deploy DSG DataXone on the virtualization platform of the local area network, achieving real-time and scheduled data replication from the AS400 system DB2 database to the Huawei Cloud GaussDB for MySQL.


Business Challenge


  • The performance of the source DB2/400 is weak. When running batch processing at the end of the month or performing large-scale analysis operations, the DB2/400 database may become unresponsive.
  • The source data sometimes lacks a primary key.
  • There is frequent DML activity, with the source database experiencing long processing times when updating or deleting over one billion records in a short period.


Solution


  • For large data tables, stable data synchronization is achieved through scheduled full synchronization using DataXone.
  • The use of the rowid feature enables fast real-time data replication for tables without primary keys, reducing synchronization time to 2-3 seconds.

To facilitate customer operations and maintenance, DSG has also developed a Thai version of the graphical interface for the DataXone data exchange and sharing integration platform, greatly enhancing user experience and ease of operation.

Currently, the project has completed the launch of multiple systems. During the project implementation process, the team members worked together to overcome numerous challenges and difficulties, delivering high-quality results. This has laid a solid foundation for the company's development in Thailand and established a good reputation.




 DSG is very honored to be invited to participate in this grand event of the AI industry, to witness the future of the AI industry in Thailand together.



In the future, DSG will actively lay out the Thai market, closely cooperate with the Thai government and enterprises, and help Thailand transition from digitalization to intelligent development. Establish a localized operations and maintenance team in Thailand, and work with high-quality partners such as Huawei Cloud to maintain high standards of work and professional ethics in the form of "products + services", providing customers with better services and solutions!
