This time we earned award from Huawei.

Follow me for Liquid Cooling content | DCX CTO. Liquid cooling evangelist. Building next gen immersion cooling & direct chip cooling systems.
Last year we also got Huawei prize - for "HPC sales". In reality it was only encouragement - award for sales but not for won deals - because we simply lost 2 important HPC tenders.
What was far more important for me that Huawei team still believed in us and supported us technically and with best available pricing. They supported us even though we failed them two times.
It paid - because first in beginning of this year we delivered small - ca 150 servers cluster but with innovative DLC system - direct liquid cooling solution - beating 6 other recognised companies. Poznan Networking and Supercomputer Centre trusted us - unknown supplier and Huawei - not known Vendor in HPC area - and we were able to deliver our first DLC system. Huawei servers performed flawlessly - those are heavily utilised since almost year and so far we have stabile, reliable system.
Then, this year we won over 8 other integrators. We are in delivery stage of +1000 servers HPC cluster on Huawei servers along with Direct Liquid Cooling. Almost 29 thousands cores, over 8600 memory chips, over 1.2 PetaFlops of processing speed. This system will be visible on EMEA level, and because of sophisticated liquid cooling solution i expect that it should be recognised worldwide. And we hope it will be expanded in near future.
I was working in HP for +10 years. So i have some experience in vendor business. I must say i never saw such hard work and commitment as in Huawei team in Enterprise Business in Poland . Example: Senior CEE & Nordic Enterprise Business Manager driving my car (after we finished negotiations with HQ) - from 3AM to 6AM, 300km so i could get some sleep -- to be able to submit proposal to customer on time (thank you mr. Guan Jun!). Or Hu An (Leo) who always responds to all emails, requests, always supporting, working as door opener. Or Rafal Tymkow who didn't knew customer before i submitted first proposal, and now he has far more better relationship than myself. Or Hu Bin (Robinson) fighting with HQ for pricing for us - trusting us we will not fail this time.
Team - thank you for that - this awards are yours.
