Huawei Oceanstor Dorado V3 ALL-Flash Storage mainly has the following characteristics:
Lightning-Fast
For accurate decision-making based on today’s complex and rapidly changing data, enterprises urgently need high-performance IT infrastructures that support fast analysis for massive amounts of data and the quick extraction of valuable insights. Huawei’s OceanStor Dorado V3 all-flash storage provides a key piece of that infrastructure with 0.3 ms latency based on intelligent chips, NVMe architecture, and Huawei’s FlashLink® intelligent algorithms. These end-to-end optimizations help improve online transaction rates threefold and reduce report-generation times by two-thirds. Dorado can scale out to 16 controllers and 7,000,565 SPC-1 IOPSTM to meet growing business requirements as needed.
Intelligent chips
Huawei uses three types of intelligent chips to enable end-to-end data acceleration: an intelligent multiprotocol interface chip, intelligent SSD controller chip, and intelligent Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) chip. The intelligent multi-protocol interface chip supports 32 Gbit/s FC and 100 GE front-end protocols. This industry-leading interface combines with protocol parsing that helps accelerate the front-end access speed by 20%. The intelligent SSD controller chip hosts a core Flash Translation Layer (FTL) algorithm that accelerates data access within SSDs at an 80 μs read latency — the shortest in the industry. The intelligent BMC management chip manages CPUs, memories, and PCIe modules in a unified manner, expediting fault diagnosis to shorten fault recovery times from 2 hours to 10 minutes.
End-to-end NVMe architecture
Compared with SAS, NVMe brings far faster performance to an all-flash storage architecture. In fact, NVMe is the fastest in the storage field. The NVMe-based OceanStor Dorado V3 achieves 0.3 ms latency — 50% shorter than SAS All-Flash Arrays (AFAs). NVMe implements direct communications between CPUs and SSDs and shortens transmission paths. The NVMe architecture also increases the number of concurrent users by more than 65,536 times, while reducing the number of protocol interactions from four to two. That doubles the write request processing efficiency. Huawei is a pioneer in adopting the end-to-end NVMe architecture for full series. The OceanStor Dorado V3 all-flash storage uses the industry-leading 32G FC/100GE RoCE NVMe protocols at the front end, PCIe 4.0 protocol inside, and 100GE RoCE protocol at the back end for end-to-end data acceleration. This enables latency as low as 0.1 ms and 5x faster transmission than SAS all-flash storage.
Intelligent algorithms
Most all-flash storage products in the industry are optimized based on traditional storage systems and cannot take full advantage of SSD capabilities. Huawei OceanStor Dorado V3 incorporates FlashLink ® intelligent algorithms to empower intelligent chips and other key components. FlashLink enables the OceanStor Dorado V3 to adjust the data layout between SSDs and controllers for efficiency and consistently low latency. In addition, Redirect On Write (ROW) technology used in flash-oriented operating systems keeps uncompromising performance after snapshots are enabled. The operating system also provides diverse Quality-of-Service (QoS) strategies to ensure high performance for missioncritical applications and excellent user experiences.
Linear performance and capacity expansion
Future business growth requires a predictable, scalable, and powerful storage infrastructure. The scale-out architecture of the OceanStor Dorado V3 supports linear expansion to 16 controllers and 7,000,565 SPC-1 IOPS, ready to meet the needs of enterprise growth at any time.
Rock-Solid
In a cloud environment, flash technologies must support explosive growth in data volume and increased demand for data reliability. The OceanStor Dorado V3 ensures
reliability at levels ranging from components and products to cloud layers. Satisfying the most-strict enterprise-class reliability requirements, the OceanStor Dorado V3 achieves 99.9999%
availability for mission-critical applications.
