Huawei Brings Upgraded Stellar Intelligent Fabric to European Data Centers
Huawei has introduced a newly upgraded Stellar Intelligent Fabric for the European market at its Huawei Network Summit 2026 Europe in Florence, Italy. According to the company, the solution is built to help enterprises create ultra-resilient, ultra-efficient and open next-generation data center networks.
- Huawei introduced its upgraded Stellar Intelligent Fabric for the European market at HNS 2026 in Florence, Italy.
- The solution is powered by StarryWing Digital Map 2.0 and Rock-Solid Architecture 2.0, according to Huawei.
- Huawei says the fabric eliminates single points of failure and safeguards critical workloads.
- KoçSistem reported using multi-plane networking for cross-center self-healing in its data centers.
- OEHI's Aldo Artigiani urged the industry to embrace open Ethernet for AI and HPC.
What Huawei presented in Florence
The launch took place during an executive roundtable at HNS 2026 titled "Founded on Resilience, Forged by Intelligence: Building Europe's Next-Generation Open Data Center Networks." Huawei says the upgraded Stellar Intelligent Fabric offers enhanced intelligence, performance and reliability.
Johnny Cheng, Vice President of Data Center Network Domain at Huawei Data Communication Product Line, said that exponential growth in data center scale and complexity is straining operational efficiency and uptime. To address this, Huawei launched the Stellar Intelligent Ultra-Resilient Fabric.
According to Huawei, the system is powered by StarryWing Digital Map 2.0 and Rock-Solid Architecture 2.0. Together they form an intelligent, open network fabric that eliminates single points of failure and safeguards critical workloads.
Europe focus and customer feedback
Bingyu Zhou, Vice Director of Huawei European ICT Marketing & Solution Sales Dept, opened the session. She noted that intelligence adoption will reshape global industries over the next decade, creating a strategic window for Europe. Huawei describes its data center networks as delivering hyperscale capacity, high throughput, automated O&M, modular architecture and low power consumption, which it says advance Europe's green strategy and industry digitization.
Under its "In Europe, For Europe" commitment, Huawei says it works with regional partners to build open network infrastructure.
Mesut ÖZCA, Leader Solutions Manager at KoçSistem, shared deployment results. He said: "We partnered with Huawei to modernize our data center resilience, using StarryWing Digital Map to deploy a multi-DC topology. Multi-plane networking provides cross-center self-healing capabilities, keeping our compute services continuously online even during localized hardware failures."
Open Ethernet and industry standards
Aldo Artigiani, Technical Officer of OEHI's Interconnect Working Group, said artificial intelligence is accelerating the dawn of an intelligent world, with robust AI infrastructure as its cornerstone. He noted that international bodies such as ITU-T and OEHI have rolled out Ethernet standards for artificial intelligence and HPC, which deliver higher performance and optimized TCO. Artigiani called on the industry to embrace open Ethernet to collaboratively drive advancement.
What it means for European enterprises
For enterprises running large data centers, the announcement centers on uptime and operational efficiency as networks grow more complex. The source describes the fabric as removing single points of failure, and the KoçSistem example points to multi-plane networking and self-healing across data centers as practical features in use.
Huawei says it will maintain open collaboration and technical innovation, and deepen partnerships across Europe to advance data center networking architectures and support enterprise transformation. The announcement does not include pricing, availability dates or performance figures, so details on rollout remain to be seen.
