Auf der Interop Tokyo 2020 wurde der OceanStor Dorado All-Flash-Speicher der nächsten Generation von Huawei mit dem Best of Show Award Grand Prize ausgezeichnet. Es ist das zweite Mal innerhalb von vier Jahren, dass das OceanStor Dorado den begehrten Preis gewonnen hat.

Re-invigorating high-end storage with AI

Take a closer look.

“This is the first time we've seen an AI module used within a storage product" said one of the experts responsible for the review, "With this built-in AI module, OceanStor Dorado can intelligently analyze workloads in real time to optimize the cache prefetch algorithm and read hit ratio, ultimately boosting the system performance by 20%."

Huawei takes the lead in combining storage systems with AI, an innovation that was praised unanimously by the review board. This breakthrough is a result of the unremitting efforts of Huawei R&D team. To discuss the story behind the development of the first storage device with a built-in AI module, we spoke to Zhang Peng, chief architect of Huawei OceanStor Dorado All-Flash Storage.

High-end storage products are designed to provide ultimate reliability. In this principle hides many opportunities. Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI), Huawei is reinventing high-end storage.

"Reinvigorating high-end storage requires something strong, something innovative, and that's why Huawei has invested heavily in AI algorithms" said Zhang Peng. In recent years, Huawei has introduced an array of intelligent technologies into the OceanStor Dorado series. For example, an AI module is used based on a machine learning framework to proactively analyze and learn the I/O patterns of many application models and continuously improve the read cache hit ratio.

"The fully interconnected and shared architecture of OceanStor Dorado is ideal for running AI technologies such as machine learning. A product that can learn and analyze the global I/O patterns and support intelligent storage operations will improve the system performance and efficiency." Zhang Peng added.
