Inside China Bank’s DevOps Success: FuYao Platform’s Standard Certification Journey
This article outlines the 2024‑2027 Information Standard Action Plan, the ITU DevOps international and domestic dual‑certification process, and details how China Bank’s FuYao Performance Measurement Platform achieved DevOps standard evaluation, including insights from a Q&A interview on implementation challenges, benefits, and future plans for digital transformation.
Background: Information Standard Action Plan (2024‑2027)
The Central Cyberspace Administration, State Administration for Market Regulation, and Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the Information Standard Construction Action Plan (2024‑2027) , emphasizing the promotion of internationalization of information standards. The plan calls for deep participation in international standard bodies such as ISO, IEC, and ITU, aligning domestic standards with international benchmarks and fostering mutual recognition.
ITU DevOps International Standard and Dual Certification
China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) launched a synchronized assessment based on the ITU DevOps International Standard and the domestic DevOps standard, enabling mutual recognition of certifications. This assessment upgrades scope, certificates, and reports, serving as a key implementation of the Action Plan and meeting current enterprise needs.
China Bank’s FuYao Performance Measurement Platform
On September 26, 2025, at the 4th XOps Industry Ecosystem Innovation Forum in Beijing, CAICT announced the dual‑certificate results for the ITU DevOps International Standard and the domestic DevOps standard. China Bank’s FuYao Performance Measurement Platform successfully passed the domestic DevOps standard assessment for the "Performance Measurement – System Platform and Tools" category.
The platform integrates development, build, artifact deployment, and performance measurement, covering the entire software lifecycle from requirement analysis to delivery. It visualizes key metrics, supports multi‑dimensional monitoring, and enables data‑driven decision‑making and issue closure.
Q&A with China Bank Software Center
Q: Please introduce your company and the project you evaluated.
A: China Bank, founded in 1912, is the longest‑running and most globalized bank in China. The FuYao platform is our DevOps cloud platform, designed to integrate development, build, deployment, and performance measurement, breaking data silos across internal management systems.
Q: Why did you choose to participate in the standard assessment?
A: Amid digital transformation and complex external environments, we needed performance measurement to pinpoint management gaps, optimize processes, and improve operational efficiency, providing data support for strategic planning.
Q: What are the key features of the evaluated project and its design principles?
A: The platform follows "goal‑oriented, data‑driven, multi‑dimensional coverage, continuous improvement". It builds a multi‑level metric system, integrates data collection, cleaning, calculation, and storage, and supports flexible metric models, machine‑learning‑driven insights, and large‑model‑based intelligent Q&A.
Q: What difficulties did you encounter during the assessment and how were they solved?
A: Leveraging prior exploration in performance measurement and cross‑team collaboration, we adopted a "assessment‑driven improvement" approach, quickly addressing gaps, iterating plans, holding regular meetings, and continuously refining system functions.
Q: What changes and improvements resulted from the assessment?
A: The platform received positive feedback from development teams, enabling real‑time visibility of code quality and build metrics, customizable alerts, and risk identification. Software defect rates decreased, and developer productivity increased, demonstrating the platform’s impact on R&D efficiency.
Q: What are the biggest takeaways and next steps for DevOps measurement?
A: Data‑driven dashboards now guide project improvements and resource allocation. Future work includes refining metric models, enhancing machine‑learning predictions, expanding multi‑terminal support, and deepening integration with internal systems.
Q: How do you view the future of DevOps?
A: In the digital wave, financial institutions demand rapid product iteration. DevOps, with automation, cross‑department collaboration, and emerging AI‑driven tools, will reshape R&D operations, driving continuous innovation and high‑quality development.
Industry Assessment Statistics
State‑owned banks have completed multiple DevOps standard assessments, covering continuous delivery, DevSecOps, tool platforms, and performance measurement. The chart below shows the number of assessments by enterprise.
Key Standards Overview
The domestic R&D Operations Integration (DevOps) Capability Maturity Model was jointly developed by CAICT, cloud open‑source alliances, leading internet companies, and major financial and telecom enterprises. It has been adopted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and widely used across industries.
The ITU‑T standard Y.3525, "Cloud Computing – Requirements for Cloud Service Development and Operation Management", was approved in 2020, establishing an international baseline for cloud‑based DevOps practices.
