INVITE Systems launches Huawei COLO data center amidst COVID-19

BUCHAREST, Romania, Sept. 28, 2020 — The COVID-19 pandemic caused a sudden surge in demand for online services in Romania, from gaming and videos to live broadcasts. This threatened to overwhelm INVITE Systems’ platform capabilities and the company needed to quickly deploy a new data center to meet the burst requirements of enterprise customers specializing in games and videos. At last, INVITE Systems has selected Huawei, a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices, as a partner to help transform the space into a modern, highly reliable data center.

"By working with Huawei, INVITE Systems SRL was able to keep growing its business at a rapid pace despite the challenges of the pandemic. This provided positive support for the company’s profitability, giving us full confidence in the future of our company," said Alexandru Catrin, CIO of INVITE Systems SRL

Discover How Huawei Helped to Build a COLO Data Center

While, in the past, the planning and approval process for a new data center proved extremely time-consuming – involving multiple vendors designing and coordinating work for each subsystem, vastly increasing the complexity and time needed.

For its new data center, however, the only space INVITE Systems had available was the canteen. While the structure itself was sufficiently sturdy, space was limited and there were no raised floors. The company needed to fit as many Information Technology (IT) devices into the space as possible.

Easy Site Selection, Fast Deployment

Huawei’s intelligent FusionModule2000 solution, which is fully modularized and integrated, enables fast deployment. The device does not need to be installed on a raised floor, simplifying site selection in general and, in this particular case, overcoming the physical constraints of the canteen.

"Huawei FusionModule2000 shortened the rollout time of our new data center by more than two months, from preparation to installation and overall commissioning. Much to my surprise, deployment was completed in just one month, exceeding all our expectations."  Alex said.

Saving Space: SmartLi UPS

Huawei deployed a cutting-edge intelligent lithium battery solution – Huawei SmartLi Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) -the physical footprint is dramatically reduced, by 70%, compared to traditional lead-acid alternatives. This made it possible to leave the main area as a modular equipment room and ensuring sufficient space for expansion.

Founded in 2000, Romania’s INVITE Systems SRL has grown rapidly since 2005. Today, it stands as one of the country’s most important network service providers in the Virtual Private Network (VPN) field. And, as one of the first network service providers to introduce digital hosting services, INVITE Systems has also led the industry, not simply followed.

The special edition E-Book was produced in real time, as WISE, in partnership with Salzburg Global Seminar, convened key stakeholders and education leaders from over 98 countries in a three-part series of global conferences aimed at bringing the global education community together. The result was a contemporary historical record of how schools, NGOs, governments, and international organizations responded to school closures during the crisis and how they are attempting to use this crisis as a springboard to reimagine – and even transform – education in their communities and countries.

The E-Book offers an opportunity to a global audience to make sense of what happened, but it also offers a breeding ground of ideas from some of the world’s top education thinkers.

"It is our hope that this publication will provide the education community with a reference point from the crisis from which future research, policy, and innovation can grow," said Dr. Asmaa Al-Fadala, editor of the publication and Director of Research and Content Development at WISE.

Contributors include:

  • Her Excellency Sheikha Hind bint Hamad Al-Thani
  • The Right Honorable Gordon Brown

Color World Announces Debut of the Color World App After its Online Concert Becomes Part of Music History

NEW YORK, Sept. 14, 2020 — Color Star Technology Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq CM: HHT) (the "Company", "we" or "HHT") officially broadcasted the Color World Online Concert to audiences around the globe via its official platform "Color World" at 9 pm Eastern Time on September 9th. The Color World Online Concert attracted over half a million viewers from mainland China and all over the world. Global Social media networks reached over 10 million hits.

More than ten international celebrities including Grammy-winning jazz guitarist Larry Carlton, "Pop Music Queen" Na Ying from mainland China, Hong Kong’s legendary singer George Lam, globally-renown pianist Wu Muye, R&B singer-songwriter Ashanti, among others, presented a music feast with remarkable international flavors. Combining showcase performances with proprietary tech tools, the event was equally memorable for moving vocals and masterful instrumentals as well as its sheer technological reach.

While the performers took center stage, investors saw yet another emergence of the future’s star economy of educational and entertaining content-sharing. Color Star is not only in the business of online concert promotions, it is a technology-driven company set to break past the boundaries between celebrity entertainment and online knowledge-sharing.

On its signature platform, Color World, international artists and celebrities have been assembled to produce content that extends beyond a show and more so a variety of courses. More than 40 industry leaders have transitioned from celebrities to celebrity tutors—with the service granting fans access built around mentorship, not just viewership. The courses include music and instruments, film and television, traditional and modern art, and sports, etc.

Through the app, developed by its subsidiary Color China, Color World is targeting a broader international market, having already covered more than 30 cities in 5 countries. With the continuous expansion and enrichment of the celebrity tutor library, the platform looks to become an integral part of the lifestyle and culture of its community—notably at its core is the self-improvement phenomenon that rose out of pandemic lockdowns. Color Star Technologies finds itself in step with users that want to connect with others, particularly those they look up to, while never leaving the comfort and peace of mind found at home.

Chinese Edition released on September 10, 2020
