BANGKOK, Sept. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

At HUAWEI CONNECT 2022, David Wang, Huawei's Executive Director of the Board

and Chairman of ICT Infrastructure Managing Board, released a series of white

papers entitled Striding Towards the Intelligent World.

Digitalization is just the beginning if we look at the global progress. It is

expected that over the next decade, enterprises of all sizes will experience

complications during their digital transformation (DX) journey. IT data

applications will become more diversified, and increasing volumes of

application data will be processed by the production systems, meaning the need

for reliable, performant, cost-effective data storage is more important than

ever.

For this reason, the Striding Towards the Intelligent World - Data Storage

white paper presents Huawei's outlook for the storage evolution in enterprise

data centers. Covering 9 topics, it provides enterprise customers with

recommendations on data infrastructure development to jointly foster the data

storage industry.

Outlook I: Unstructured Data

Unstructured data accounts for more than 80% of new enterprise data and is

increasingly important to production and decision-making. It is necessary for

enterprise IT teams to transform their structured data-centric capabilities to

design, planning, and management of mass unstructured data.

Outlook II: Diverse Data Applications

Diverse data applications such as distributed databases, big data analytics,

and AI are booming. Enterprises are encouraged to use the decoupled

storage-compute architecture to serve emerging data applications for higher

reliability. In addition, acceleration engines can be built for diverse data

applications to implement near-data processing that delivers higher efficiency.

Outlook III: All-Scenario Inclusive All-Flash

All-flash storage accounts for more than 50% of the primary storage market, and

the era of inclusive flash storage is coming. Huawei recommends that

enterprises seize storage replacement and deployment opportunities to

accelerate the adoption of all-flash storage.

Outlook IV: Ransomware Protection

Ransomware attacks are becoming the most significant threat to enterprises.

Their storage teams are advised to establish a more comprehensive data

protection system and build an all-round ransomware protection storage solution

to strengthen the last line of defense for data protection.

Outlook V: Digital Resilience

As data is becoming the core asset for enterprises, digital resilience is a

major metric for any enterprise resilience framework. Enterprises should

strengthen data protection to ensure zero data leakage, tampering, and loss,

always-on services, and always compliant access, thus enhancing digital

resilience.

Outlook VI: AI-Powered Storage

From management to products, AI powers autonomous-driving storage throughout

the data lifecycle. It is recommended that enterprises proactively develop

evaluation criteria for storage AI management software, and storage management

teams upgrade tech stacks for storage AI.

Outlook VII: Multi-Cloud Architecture

As multicloud becomes the new normal, the recommended practice is to migrate

innovative services that have uncertainties and emerging services like OA to

public clouds, while retaining core services in their on-premises data centers.

In multi-cloud construction, enterprises are advised to use the IT architecture

that centrally stores and shares data and deploys applications in multiple

clouds, and plan a unified data management platform across clouds to maximize

data sharing.

Outlook VIII: Storage Business Models

A flexible storage business model helps handle explosive data volumes and

economic uncertainties. Huawei recommends that enterprises plan how to obtain

IT resources and select the most appropriate business model according to

business requirements and future strategies.

Outlook IX: Energy Saving

Green data storage is a must for data centers to reach net-zero carbon

emissions. Enterprises can deploy storage products with high-density designs,

system convergence, and efficient data reduction to further reduce data center

energy consumption.
