45Management Discussion and Analysis
In the storage field, Huawei launched the industry's first
converged storage operating system, OceanStor OS. The
system supports the following five features:
■Convergence of SAN and NAS, increasing O&M
efficiency by 50%.
■Convergence of multi-vendor heterogeneous
storage devices, supporting a smooth takeover of
the management of devices on live networks and
maximizing customers' ROI.
■Convergence of performance and capacity, allowing
flexible allocation of SSD and HDD media on
demand.
■Convergence of entry-level, mid-range, and high-end
storage products, maximizing data value.
■Convergence of primary and backup storage,
realizing backup in seconds, and agile, efficient
data lifecycle management.
Huawei's high-end storage products provide a high-
availability active-active data center solution that
delivers an RTO and RPO of 0 at an inter-center distance
of up to 300 km, the longest in the industry.
In the future data center field, Huawei has:
■Released the Data Center 3.0 white paper at
the International Symposium on Computer
Architecture (ISCA 2014) and defined the next-
generation data center DC3.0, which features
software-defined disaggregation architecture, all-
optical interconnections, and automatic resource
pooling. This architecture improves data processing
capabilities by 1,000 times and boosts resource
utilization to more than 90%.
■Developed the industry's first operational computer
prototype with all-optical interconnections.
■Launched the industry's first framework for
CPU+GPU integrated clustering resource scheduling
based on YARN and emerged as the industry leader
in the area of parallel computing based on HUAWEI
HiGraph.
■Developed the large-scale memory pool architecture
and the industry's first NVM with single-tier storage
architecture.
Huawei focuses on the directions, trends, and
revolutionary innovations of ICT technologies. We have
cooperated with global innovators through our 16 R&D
centers and 28 Joint Innovation Centers around the
world. We have promoted technology progress towards
a Better Connected World by sharing insights into ICT
advances, and working with top-level institutions in
the industry and academia to jointly embrace major
technology challenges. In 2014, we:
■Publicized the Huawei Innovation Research Program
(HIRP) online, embracing global quality resources and
their innovative ideas.
■Carried out in-depth cooperation with global
renowned universities, covering areas like 400G
core routers, 400G/1T optical transmission systems,
and G.fast/NG-PON access systems. We achieved
broadband home access at a rate of 1 Gbit/s, and
16T for one node and 32T for one direction in
backbone transmission.
■Collaborated with universities, Internet companies,
software and hardware vendors, carriers, and
open source organizations to jointly build the SDN
ecosystem and advance the SDN industry.
■Conducted technological cooperation with multiple
renowned universities around the world, covering
broad technology areas such as high-performance
distributed storage, parallel computing, and Big
Data.
■Jointly innovated with leading customers and helped
them succeed in network optimization, installed
base operations, and precision marketing.
