Hello everyone!
As the 'Best Huawei Enterprise Network' sub-series ended last week, it was time for us to continue with the same pace. Therefore, I now present to you the 'Best Huawei Enterprise IT' sub-series of the 'Best Huawei Enterprise' compilation series.
This thus marks the beginning of this new sub-series. We will gradually take each product category and then compile a list of the best Huawei Enterprise products available on the market that belong to that particular. Today we will be talking about the best Huawei Enterprise Storage. Let's get this IT 'party' started, shall we?
CLOUD STORAGE
As part of the best Huawei Enterprise Storage, it's worth mentioning the Cloud Storage category. FusionStorage Intelligent Distributed Storage is the name of the main product in this category, an in-house product that allows for state of the art elastic on-demand services and is engineered on a cloud-based infrastructure to cater for the needs even of the most demanding of enterprise clients.
FusionStorage integrates local storage resources from general-purpose servers into a completely-distributed storage pool. Features like block, object, big data, and file storage for upper-layer applications are beautifully merged together and made available by Fusion Storage. And if were to talk facts:
full-lifecycle intelligent system management;
Proven performance of 4.5 million IOPS at a latency of less than 1 ms in SPC-1 V3;
