As the largest professional CDN service provider in China, Wangsu Science and Technology Co., Ltd has developed in adverse situations and it continues to transform and upgrade. Faced with fast-changing technology and opportunities and challenges, Wangsu is starting a new journey.
In 2000, Wangsu was registered and founded in Jiading District, Shanghai, and it established the first proprietary data center—Guomen IDC Computer Room whose principal business is providing IDC service to customers. In 2004, Wangsu entered CDN industry. With existing IDC resources, it independently developed the CDN platform, which quickly met customers’ demand of customization and product iteration, thus gaining a leading position in market competition and standing out in the CDN industry. In 2009, Wangsu was listed on GEM board, becoming “the first share of internet acceleration service" listed on the A-share market. In 2010, the company, the first CDN enterprise that realized dynamic application acceleration in China through independent research and development, became the first choice of many Internet enterprises and E-commerce leaders. These have greatly expanded its market share and realized the CDN2.0 era defined by Wangsu.
The accelerated development of the Internet industry in emerging markets has created huge market demand. At the same time, with the deepening and development of the Belt and Road strategy, China’s leading enterprises vigorously advance their globalization process. Driven by the global market and policies, Wangsu is actively conducting the “going global” strategy to realize its goal to become a global enterprise.
In 2016, Wangsu expanded its business to India and Ireland, and set up wholly-owned subsidiaries there respectively. In 2017, with the launch of nodes in the Middle East and India, the company has more than 500 overseas nodes, which covers dozens of countries and regions in Asia, Europe, America, Oceania, and Africa. The scale and service ability of its overseas platforms are being gradually expanded. The company has acquired CDNetworks of South Korea and CDN-Video of Russia, which further integrated and expanded its overseas technology strength and sales network. Its overseas ecological construction gradually improves. With its technology and service ability widely recognized in the world, the company has turned into the world's leading professional CDN service provider.
In the future, Wangsu will continue to make efforts in the fields of CDN, cloud safety and cloud computing, etc. Meanwhile, the company, seeking opportunities and challenges in the 5G market, will deploy edge computing, construct infrastructure to provide support for large-scale 5G operators, and build a globalized intelligent network to connect the intelligent future.
