Riyad Bank is Looking for a Partner to Build a Reliable and Efficient Digital Foundation

Data is a bank's core asset. Data stability, security, and data computing power all affect the service customers receive and the productivity of a bank. Thus, Riyad Bank wanted to build a storage system that is open, secure, reliable, agile, and easy to maintain.

Huawei was invited to participate in the open platform storage project two years ago. Because of the excellent reliability, excellent performance, and comprehensive software functions of the OceanStor Dorado series, Riyad Bank chose Huawei as its partner.

Fully-Connected 3DC Architecture (Active-Active + Remote Replication) Lays the Foundation for Riyad's Digital Transformation

Riyad Bank is the first bank in Saudi Arabia to deploy 3-data center (active-active + remote replication) solution to meet the need for 24/7 intra-city active-active service continuity and disaster recovery.

Specifically, it deployed OceanStor Dorado 18000 in three data centers in Riyadh and Dammam to host production & DR systems: Two data centers were built in Riyadh as two active-active sites, while the third one was built in Dammam as a remote disaster recovery site. Data centers in both cities are interconnected using the remote replication solution.

• The geo-redundant 3DC DR solution delivers RPO = 0 and RTO ≈ 0, eliminating the risk of service interruption.

• Upgraded data infrastructure provides consistent <1ms data access latency, enabling Riyad Bank to expand services in the future.
