OceanStor 18510/18810 High-End Hybrid Flash Storage Systems
Huawei's OceanStor 18510/18810 high-end hybrid flash storage systems is designed to provide excellent data services for critical enterprise applications. Huawei OceanStor 18510/18810 feature industry-leading SmartMatrix architecture, active-active solutions for Storage Area Network (SAN) and Network-Attached Storage (NAS), flash acceleration technology, high-performance hardware platforms, and a wide range of solutions designed to improve data protection efficiency. Such features provide ultra-high reliability and ultra-high performance to meet data storage requirements across scenarios, from large enterprises and large-scale data warehouses to massive small-files sharing, cloud computing, and more. This makes the systems purpose-built for government, telecom, finance, manufacturing, and healthcare sectors.

Seven-Nines Reliability
- Innovative SmartMatrix full-mesh architecture sets a new benchmark, tolerating the failure of seven out of eight controllers without interrupting services.
- 94% of upgrades are performed in user mode, allowing users to upgrade modules within 1 second without restarting controllers.
- Gateway-free active-active deployment for SAN and NAS supports smooth upgrade to geo-redundant Three-Data-Center (3DC)/Four-Data-Center (4DC) Disaster Recovery (DR) solutions.
Flash-Like Performance
- Innovative SmartAcceleration technology uses the dynamic adaptive data layout algorithm to accelerate hot data, resulting in two times higher performance than the preceding generation.
- The system supports high-density snapshots to achieve zero performance loss.
- End to End (E2E) Non-Volative Memory express (NVMe) architecture slashes latency to just 0.05 ms for a premium, all-flash experience.
Endless Evolution
- SAN and NAS converged architecture allows a single storage system to meet various service requirements — block, files, container, virtualization, and more — yielding higher storage utilization and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
- The ransomware protection solution features Air Gap, secure snapshots, and E2E encryption technologies to effectively defend against ransomware attacks*.
- The system supports private and hybrid clouds, as well as cloud backup services, providing users with multiple cloudification strategy choices.
