Huawei IT Day 2025 Debuts in Malaysia, Pioneering Next-Generation Digital and AI Innovations in the Asia-Pacific Region

On March 13, 2025, Huawei Malaysia successfully hosted Asia-Pacific’s first IT Day in Kuala Lumpur with the theme "Building Future-proof Data Storage, Unleashing Data Value in the AI Era”. The event brought together over 200 customers and partners from key industries, including finance, government, and managed service providers (MSPs), facilitating in-depth discussions on the future of digital transformation.

In his opening address, Jason Wu, Director of Enterprise ICT Marketing and Solution Sales at Huawei Malaysia, stated, "Malaysia has emerged as a regional leader in the digital economy, driven by forward-thinking policies, visionary initiatives, and technological advancements. At this pivotal moment in history, the drive for AI adoption is more tangible and urgent than ever across industries."

As a strategic partner in Malaysia’s digital transformation journey, Huawei remains committed to advancing digital infrastructure and empowering industries to harness AI for enhanced productivity.

Huawei Accelerates Industrial Intelligence

Tony Tang, CTO of the Global Product Department, highlighted three key pathways to expedite industry-wide digital transformation:

1. Building Advanced AI-Ready Data Infrastructure – Addressing AI’s increasing demand for data with scalable, high-performance storage solutions.
2. Developing Comprehensive AI Solutions – Enhancing AI development tools and strengthening local partnerships to improve accessibility.
3. Integrating Technology into Industry Applications – Establishing industry-specific ICT architecture based on sectoral needs and growth stages.

At the event, Huawei’s solutions experts shared insights and best practices in these areas, reinforcing the company’s leadership in digital innovation.

Introducing Future-Proof All-Flash Data Infrastructure

With a commitment to unlocking new value in the AI era, Huawei introduced four next generation all-flash data storage solutions:

1. OceanStor Dorado – Designed for core business scenarios, featuring an industry-first decoupled storage architecture, AI-accelerated hardware, and SmartMatrix 3.0 for 99.999999% reliability.
2. OceanStor A800 – Engineered for AI model training, offering up to 500GB/s bandwidth and a 30% increase in cluster computing efficiency.
3. OceanStor Pacific 9928 – A next-gen all-flash distributed storage solution for data analytics, delivering industry-leading density (4PB/2U) and the lowest power consumption (0.25W/TB).
4. OceanProtect E-Series – A high-performance all-flash backup storage solution, integrating short-term backup and long-term archiving with 72:1 data deduplication compression, exceeding industry benchmarks by over 20%.

Empowering Industries for the "Inclusive AI" Era

To drive widespread AI adoption, industries require accessible AI products, user-friendly development tools, and a thriving ecosystem. In response, Huawei introduced the "DCS AI Full-Stack Solution" to the Malaysian market. This innovative solution leverages four-node clusters, an all-in-one AI toolchain, KVCache inference acceleration, and XPU pooling for efficient scheduling, significantly lowering the barriers to AI deployment.

Revolutionizing the Financial Sector with AI-Powered R-A-A-S Architecture

Recognizing the evolving challenges faced by the financial sector, Huawei introduced the R-A-A-S (Reliability, Availability, Autonomy, and Security) architecture in Malaysia. This initiative aims to help banks achieve zero-trust security, zero-wait experiences, zero-interruption operations, and zero-contact maintenance in the digital era.

As AI continues to be a top strategic priority for enterprises, its implementation remains complex and challenging. Looking ahead, Huawei remains dedicated to supporting Malaysia’s digital transformation journey, collaborating with customers and partners to deliver innovative, future-proof ICT infrastructure and drive industry-wide value creation.
