The Automated O&M Platform is an integrated O&M supporting system developed on the basis of China Mobile Internet Company Limited’s fast-growing basic core data including various Internet service system data and device assets by introducing automated O&M tools and automated monitoring tools. The platform provides service systems with monitoring alarms, CMDB, automated O&M platform and process support, to meet the automated O&M demands of all Internet service systems and ensure a staunch back-end support to rapid service development.
Customer Requirements:
With the rapid growth of China Mobile Internet services, there are more and more service lines, more and more O&M devices, more complicated services and environment, and increasingly higher labor costs. The traditional manual operation and maintenance can no longer meet the demands of daily repairing and maintenance work.
To address the above challenges, customers are in dire need of an integrated and standardized O&M management platform to manage, consolidate and operate the daily O&M work, to reverse the concept and awareness of traditional manual operation and maintenance, and try to standardize, streamline, automate and visualize the daily O&M work. This will not only improve the working efficiency of O&M personnel and saving time and cost, but provide strong back-end support to rapid growth of future services and analysis of O&M data.
Customer Activities:
During the development and construction of automated O&M platform, the customer pushed us to build an O&M development team, including front-end developers, back-end developers, demand analyzers and trackers. All team members have worked together with each other to develop new versions very quickly. The specific solutions are as follows:
(I) Construction of CMDB: all professional groups of the O&M team provide various kinds of device assets information data, review and verify the data repeatedly, and ensure the accuracy and consistency of the data, so as to build a complete CMDB assets information library, the core of the entire automated O&M platform.
(II) Monitoring and management: a powerful automated monitoring tool ZABBIX is introduced to monitor basic resources of various devices (servers, network devices, and storage devices), manage the KPI indicators in a standardized and streamlined manner, and create an integrated alarm interface. In the meanwhile, all items monitored are gradually optimized to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the monitoring alarms.
(III) Automation: the automated configuration management tool, which is integrated and open source, can automatically configure and manage on the interface the device data in the assets library, and automatically perform bulk operations of devices. This not only avoids risks of manual back-end operations, but significantly improves efficiency of configuration management.
(IV) Script and task management: through standardized and streamlined management of scripts, O&M personnel can schedule scripts according to their needs, including timed processing, synchronous processing and asynchronous processing. This sets the standards for automated review, automated processing, and task scheduling of monitoring alarms.
Customer Benefits:
With the automated O&M platform, the customer can easily check current network management service and device assets, monitoring alarm reports, resource distribution and usage of all service lines in the resource pool, analysis of resource usage reports, and device maintenance data; it can also, through automated management functions, operate service device hosts, complete configuration and data extraction in an automated and rapid way, alter the configuration, revise security basic lines and loopholes, and deploy monitoring tasks with one click.
Through the deployment of automated O&M platform, the customer can build an O&M team in a rapid manner. The software can support standardized O&M process, O&M role setting, and comprehensive library management. The automated operation can enormously increase O&M efficiency and lower labor costs. With the reporting function of the automated platform, the O&M data analysis can be graphically displayed to the customer, making the O&M work more visualized.
