With the advent of cloud computing and big data era, data has become the most valuable asset of enterprises. How to ensure data security has naturally become the top priority for enterprises to carry out digital transformation.
Mu Langyun came into being
With the continuous development of the IT industry over the years, from the traditional data center to the popularity of virtualization, and then to the emergence of various private clouds, public clouds, and hybrid clouds, the storage, management and protection of data are also constantly occurring. change. This also brings greater challenges to data security.
"Gold is priceless, data is priceless." In the early days, many companies thought that they had clusters, mirrors, or data already on the cloud, which seemed to be very safe, so there was no need to back up data. However, in recent years, frequent service downtimes, hacking attacks, and data deletion database security incidents have sounded alarm bells for the majority of enterprises: Cluster and mirroring are still not enough for data protection, and data backup must be added. A "last line of defense".
It is precisely because of seeing the vast prospects of the data security market that Mu Langyun came into being.
"Why did we do Mulangyun? Because we have observed the development of the industry for so many years, and feel that data protection will definitely change with the development of new business formats, and with the changes in data centers. Just like Veeam back then Seizing the opportunity of virtualization well, if Mulangyun does not enter the cloud security market, it may lose a huge opportunity. This is the most important battlefield now and in the future.” Shenzhen Mulangyun data is limited. Company President Lu Jianghong said to Fun Technology.
The first year of cloud backup and disaster recovery
Mu Langyun, founded in 2014, can be said to be a startup company. However, the founding team of this company brought together executives, senior technical experts, well-known security experts and business development experts from well-known companies such as Tencent, Veeam, CommVault, HPE, Oracle, and Microsoft. Including Lu Jianghong, who once served as the president of Veeam China, has extremely rich experience in corporate management and marketing. Another executive of Mu Langyun, founder and chairman Chen Yuanqiang, also has nearly 20 years of experience in network and data security, cloud computing, big data and Internet product research and development.
"As a cloud platform that focuses on data security, Mulangyun takes'making the world's information exchange uninterrupted' as its mission, and its future vision is'where there is digital infrastructure, there is Mulangyun'." Mulangyun was founded. Chen Yuanqiang, chairman and chairman of the board of directors, introduced to Quwei Technology, “When we conceived the slogan for the company, we felt that “reappearing every moment of the cloud” not only included the management of data security, but also the status of some data. Given some protective measures, but also has a good artistic atmosphere, so I decided to use this sentence as the positioning of Mu Langyun."
According to the analysis report from the national competent authority, in recent years, China's cloud computing market has been showing an extremely rapid development trend. Among them, the private cloud market is expected to exceed 141 billion in 2024, and the cumulative deployment scale is expected to exceed 421.9 billion from 2018 to 2024. However, 99% of the clouds are still using the scheme protection 20 years ago, because the existing data security protection and storage management schemes do not meet the large-scale, rapid growth and cost input requirements of digital cloud platforms. These clouds are all facing There are many hidden dangers such as data loss or destruction, business interruption, and historical state cannot be reconstructed.
However, opportunities always coexist with dangers. Such a huge demand for data protection also brings the best development opportunity for the cloud security industry. The National Cyber Security Graded Protection Regulation 2.0, which was officially implemented on December 1, 2019, clearly requires that important data and systems must have security and backup disaster recovery measures; critical infrastructure industries, such as finance, healthcare, energy, transportation, and education Cloud platforms built by operators, public services, etc., must meet the requirements of Level 3 and above, including backup and remote disaster recovery.
"2020 is the first year of cloud backup disaster recovery." Lu Jianghong said.
Freely scalable data security cloud platform
As a data security cloud platform, "freely scalable" is a major feature of Mulangyun.
Lu Jianghong pointed out that in the cloud environment, in response to the needs of viruses, intrusions, software and hardware failures, business exercises, natural disasters, compliance analysis, and data distribution, Mulangyun can immediately rebuild the cloud system anytime and anywhere, and reproduce the cloud at every moment. Application, security, compliance, etc., and provide corresponding protection programs and measures.
"Compared with traditional data security companies, the traditional hardware + software packaging solution does not mean that it cannot be used, but it is not the best solution for pursuing agility and flexibility. Mulangyun's architecture has the ability to scale freely and configure flexibility. , Can well adapt to the needs of customers in the cloud era. This architecture is more representative of the future, in terms of performance, cost, management, flexibility and scalability, it has a comprehensive improvement compared with the past." Lu Jianghong said .
In terms of channel construction, on the one hand, Mu Langyun builds its own ecosystem and builds a channel ecosystem with the goal of customers in different industries and different channels. It is mainly developed, maintained and empowered by Mu Langyun itself; on the other hand, Mu Langyun The founding team of Langyun has accumulated industry customers such as China Telecom by virtue of its years of continuous and deep cultivation in the industry. In addition, as a professional service provider in the field of data security, Mu Langyun can also integrate into the channels of other partners to make up for and Enhance the service capabilities of partners, develop together and win-win, and obtain value and development space from them.
Since its establishment in 2014, Mulangyun has developed more than 300 channel partners across the country, and successively established North District (Beijing), South District (Shenzhen, Guangzhou), West District (Chengdu, Chongqing), East District (Shanghai), etc. Channel sales and technical service points also cover neighboring provinces in various regions, and have established dual R&D centers in Shenzhen and Chengdu. Such a rapid development speed is enough to make many colleagues envy.
Mu Langyun who does not take an unusual path
As the saying goes, "you get what you pay for", although advanced products and technologies are efficient and easy to use, the prices are often high. However, Mu Langyun proposed to make "every company can afford it and use it well". How is this achieved?
"To objectively understand an innovative product, it often takes a process. From the calculation method of TCO total cost of ownership, our current cost is only about one-third of that of traditional enterprises, which indeed brings high value to customers. "Chen Yuanqiang said, "In addition, Mulangyun will classify customers into different levels according to different periods of enterprise development, and provide services through on-demand delivery for medium and small customers. There is also a cloud backup, mainly for Public cloud and some small and medium-sized enterprises. From these perspectives, we can distinguish between customers, bring high-quality services to customers, reduce costs, improve automation, and help customers reduce their investment in data security."
Chen Yuanqiang pointed out that in recent years, data security incidents have occurred frequently, and the development of cloud is also an irreversible trend. Therefore, whether it is active defense or passive defense, the last pass of data backup is essential. As for how to choose, it is recommended that companies choose the solution that best matches their own cloud, and choose products that have excellent performance in terms of scale, flexibility, speed, agility, and recovery. And Mu Langyun has been at the forefront of the industry in these aspects.
"I don’t know if everyone feels like this: The domestic data security products and the market have undergone great changes in the past few years. In the past, customers tended to choose foreign products as the first idea in their minds, but in the past two years, Many customers’ consciousness has changed, and they feel that it’s okay to use domestically produced products, and they have even surpassed foreign products in some respects.” Lu Jianghong said, “This is very critical. In the past, our local companies often could only do small things. Customers can now serve large customers and be able to benchmark against international companies. The country has policies, customers are willing to agree, and domestically produced products are available. It can be said that China's data protection market has caught up with a good opportunity."
