Huawei New-Gen OceanStor Dorado Converged All-Flash Storage Passes Enterprise Strategy Group Technical Validation

BARCELONA, Spain, March 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At MWC Barcelona 2026, Enterprise Strategy Group, now part of Omdia, released a technical validation report on Huawei's New-Gen OceanStor Dorado Converged All-Flash Storage.

The report emphasizes that enterprise data volumes are growing rapidly in the AI era, reshaping how organizations operate and raising the bar for storage infrastructure in terms of performance, resilience, intelligence, and cost-effectiveness. While many storage vendors offer all-flash solutions, architectural design trade-offs often make it difficult to balance performance, reliability, and cost, ultimately limiting the benefits delivered to organizations.

The report provides a comprehensive evaluation of New-Gen OceanStor Dorado Converged All-Flash Storage across performance, resilience, intelligent management, and total cost of ownership (TCO). The results confirm that the product leads the way in these key areas and demonstrates strong market competitiveness, delivering a compelling combination of high performance, strong resilience, and optimal TCO. This meets enterprise needs for digital and intelligent transformation.

Testing conducted in a simulated high-concurrency database environment shows that the all-flash system sustains ultra-high performance of more than 876,256 IOPS, with an average response time of just 32 μs. The system stores diverse data with native and parallel architecture for blocks, files, and objects.

The active-active solution supports seamless failover across data centers. The SmartMatrix full-mesh architecture can tolerate the failure of up to seven out of eight controller enclosures without service interruptions. FlashEver enables cross-gen convergence and eliminates service interruptions during storage replacement. The system delivers end-to-end intelligent protection with built-in ransomware detection for both SAN and NAS.

The DataMaster agent of the iMaster DME data management platform enables automatic system health assessment, performance trend prediction, and fault location within minutes.

In addition, the five-year TCO analysis indicates that New-Gen OceanStor Dorado Converged All-Flash Storage can reduce TCO by up to 64% compared with traditional hybrid storage. This achieves significant savings in procurement, O&M, and energy consumption.

Yuan Yuan, President of Huawei Data Storage Product Line, stated, "This Enterprise Strategy Group technical validation demonstrates Huawei's ongoing leadership in storage technology innovation. Going forward, we will continue to deepen our innovation efforts and help accelerate the digital and intelligent transformation across industries."
