Huawei has introduced its AI-powered R-A-A-S (Reliability, Availability, Autonomy, and Security) framework at MWC Barcelona 2025. Designed to strengthen financial infrastructure in the AI era, the framework leverages Huawei’s ICT products and services to enhance resilience and accelerate digital transformation for financial institutions.
At the company’s finance forum, Jason Cao, CEO of Huawei Digital Finance BU, highlighted the growing integration of AI into financial workflows. He emphasised the industry’s shift from “Doing Digital to Doing AI,” noting that while AI offers new opportunities for innovation, it also presents infrastructure challenges. “Without adequate resilience, we cannot transition from digital to intelligent,” he stated.
Resilience at the Core of AI Transformation
Alvin Feng, Director of Global Marketing and Solution Sales at Huawei Digital Finance BU, expanded on this during his keynote address. He described how the AI-powered R-A-A-S framework builds on Huawei’s previously announced “4 Zeros” goals—Zero Downtime, Zero Wait, Zero Trust, and Zero Touch. The new framework aims to create a highly resilient digital foundation for the financial sector, offering four key features:
- Reliability: Multi-copy storage, real-time synchronisation, and cross-domain coordination of storage, computing, and networking ensure zero data loss.
- Availability: Service disruptions are minimised through cell-based databases, microservice clusters, and multi-centre, multi-active cloud services, achieving 99.999% system availability.
- Autonomy: AI-driven automation allows for one-minute fault identification, five-minute fault location, and ten-minute fault rectification. Digital twin technology and AI-powered monitoring help prevent human errors and improve system efficiency.
- Security: AI-powered threat detection enables rapid identification and blocking of cyberattacks within seconds, with an integrated security policy spanning terminals, edge computing, cloud storage, and networks.
Huawei is offering design services for its AI-powered R-A-A-S framework, alongside full-stack solutions covering computing, storage, networking, and cloud.
Global Reach and Industry Adoption
Huawei has already established a strong presence in the financial sector, serving 53 of the world’s top 100 banks and supporting over 3,700 financial institutions across 80 countries. The company aims to further assist financial organisations in building highly resilient infrastructure to support AI-driven innovation.
