Huawei Storage Unveils Three Flagship Products of Huawei Full-Stack Data Centers Solution
2022/03/01
[Barcelona, Spain, March 01, 2022] During the Huawei Full-Stack Data Center Forum at MWC Barcelona 2022, Huawei
proposed the vision of "Flash-to-Flash-to-Anything (F2F2X)", and advocated use all flash storage to accelerate
all-scenario. At the same time, Huawei revealed three flagship storage products: OceanStor Dorado All-Flash Storage,
OceanProtect Backup Storage, and OceanStor Pacific Storage for Huawei Full-Stack Data Center solution.
The rise of 5G, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications has caused data to surge
in the finance, government, and manufacturing industries. As a result, storage systems face higher requirements than
ever before. Traditional systems cannot provide the service and operating expense (OPEX) performance needed to keep
IT systems online at all times and in all conditions. Consequently, all-flash storage has become a popular choice to
boost production efficiency across industries, especially for transactions, analytics, high-performance file
sharing, development and testing, disaster recovery and backup, and high-performance computing. Solid-state drives
(SSDs) are rapidly replacing hard disk drives (HDDs) to deliver higher data performance and better data protection
in all scenarios.

Huawei Storage Unveils Three Flagship Products
Huawei unveiled three flagship storage product series and solutions for the Full-Stack Data Center Solution:
1. The OceanStor Dorado All-Flash Storage series is famous for its robust reliability and high performance, and it
has been widely adopted in various industries for core production applications. The new OceanStor Dorado systems
launched at MWC feature brand new network attached storage (NAS) features together with many other security
features, such as quota, Quality of Service (QoS), and ransomware protection. Together, they help ensure safe
cross-department file sharing. The new Dorado systems also adopt a unique cross-cluster global distributed file
system architecture and a leading FlashLink architecture to deliver 30% higher performance than industry peers.
Furthermore, the OceanStor Dorado series simultaneously supports active-active storage for storage area network
(SAN) and NAS to ensure that services run 24/7. Dorado arrays are particularly suitable for semiconductor electric
design automation (EDA), product research and development (R&D), and financial data exchange scenarios, serving as
efficient and reliable infrastructure for applications with over a trillion small files.
2. The OceanProtect Backup Storage series features a multi-stream engine for end-to-end acceleration and an
active-active architecture for high reliability. With groundbreaking inline variable-length deduplication and
feature-based compression algorithms, it provides three times higher data backup speed and five times higher data
recovery speed than competing products as well as a high data reduction ratio of 72:1. In addition, it provides an
all-round ransomware protection solution to help users protect data against attacks.
3. The OceanStor Pacific Mass Data Storage series breaks the boundaries of performance, protocol, and capacity for
high-performance data analytics (HPDA) applications. It is the only storage series in the industry to support hybrid
loads, meaning that one OceanStor Pacific system can be used for HPDA, big data, video, backup, and archiving
applications at the same time. New OceanStor Pacific systems further improve storage utilization by 30% in HPDA
scenarios through algorithm optimization and data compression techniques. In addition, supporting near-real-time big
data processing, they slash the time for analyzing 100 billion data sets from days to only minutes, significantly
accelerating application development.
