Product Positioning
The OceanStor 2810 V5 storage system is a next-generation virtual storage product for video surveillance developed by Huawei and based on current storage application standards as well as current storage technology trends. This storage product is designed to meet enterprises' requirements for converged IT of computing and storage in video surveillance scenarios.
In the cloud computing era, virtualization technologies have been employed by over half of the severs deployed in business environments. These technologies enable more agile and efficient services with lowered costs and improved resource utilization. However, such technologies also demand skilled system and application engineers to operate them. The employment of virtualization architecture has changed the traffic model of data centers (DCs) while bringing new challenges to security management, network management, and assurance of performance and service level agreement (SLA). The Huawei OceanStor 2810 V5 storage system is an IT infrastructure product based on a converged architecture where virtual servers and high-performance storage are integrated by using SmartContainer feature for on-demand resource allocation and expansion. With the OceanStor 2810 V5 storage system, enterprise new service rollout period is greatly reduced, improving operation and maintenance (O&M) efficiency.
Based on flexible and scalable design principles, the OceanStor 2810 V5 storage system provides industry-leading hardware specifications and a RAID 2.0+ underlying virtualization architecture to meet the varying requirements of services.
In addition to providing outstanding storage performance that ensures smooth and secure operation of data services, the OceanStor 2810 V5 storage system offers easy-to-use management and convenient local/remote maintenance, greatly decreasing the management and maintenance cost.
