Business models redefined
With digital production emerging as the currency of modern business models, data is more important than ever. This makes it imperative for enterprises to find ways of cost-effectively amassing and storing different types of data–structured data from core services and unstructured mass data from 5G, IoT, and UHD.
OceanStor Pacific Series would perform these functions by breaching architectural, service, and performance boundaries, and harnessing flawless multiprotocol interworking and a next-generation elastic EC algorithm, besides a series of dedicated hardware.
Enterprises primarily deploy AI technologies to analyse and process extensive data to convert data into knowledge and services, improving production efficiency.
"Mass data will play an increasingly important role in enterprise digital transformation," Peter Zhou, President of Huawei Data Storage and Intelligent Vision Product Line, said.
