Huawei OceanStor 2800 V3 — Product Data Sheet

Product Overview

The Huawei OceanStor 2800 V3 is a next-generation video cloud converged storage system purpose-built for the video surveillance domain. It retains full IP SAN access capabilities while introducing an open converged data platform within the storage controllers, enabling the integration of video applications that would traditionally run on separate physical servers.

The system is designed to address the growing convergence of computing and storage in video surveillance scenarios. By leveraging the surplus computing power of the storage controllers, the OceanStor 2800 V3 can host up to six virtual machines, allowing third-party video management and analytics applications to run directly within the storage array. This architecture eliminates the need for dedicated application servers, reducing total cost of ownership (TCO), minimizing rack space consumption, and simplifying overall system deployment.

The OceanStor 2800 V3 features an Active-Active dual-controller architecture with no single point of failure, providing high availability for mission-critical surveillance operations. It employs Huawei’s proprietary RAID 2.0+ technology, which enhances data protection by allowing rapid reconstruction and ensuring video data remains accessible even in the event of multiple disk failures. The system supports high-density disk enclosures, enabling a single device to house up to 750 disks, making it suitable for large-scale deployments in Safe City, finance, rail transportation, and other video-intensive industries.
